图1示出本申请实施例可应用的一种无线通信***的框图。无线通信***包括终端11和网络侧设备12。其中,终端11可以是手机、平板电脑(Tablet Personal Computer)、膝上型电脑(Laptop Computer)或称为笔记本电脑、个人数字助理(Personal Digital Assistant,PDA)、掌上电脑、上网本、超级移动个人计算机(ultra-mobile personal computer,UMPC)、移动上网装置(Mobile Internet Device,MID)、增强现实(augmented reality,AR)/虚拟现实(virtual reality,VR)设备、机器人、可穿戴式设备(Wearable Device)、车载设备(Vehicle User Equipment,VUE)、行人终端(Pedestrian User Equipment,PUE)、智能家居(具有无线通信功能的家居设备,如冰箱、电视、洗衣机或者家具等)、游戏机、个人计算机(personal computer,PC)、柜员机或者自助机等终端侧 设备,可穿戴式设备包括:智能手表、智能手环、智能耳机、智能眼镜、智能首饰(智能手镯、智能手链、智能戒指、智能项链、智能脚镯、智能脚链等)、智能腕带、智能服装等。需要说明的是,在本申请实施例并不限定终端11的具体类型。网络侧设备12可以包括接入网设备或核心网设备,其中,接入网设备也可以称为无线接入网设备、无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)、无线接入网功能或无线接入网单元。接入网设备12可以包括基站、无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Network,WLAN)接入点或无线保真(Wireless Fidelity,WiFi)节点等,基站可被称为节点B、演进节点B(Evolved Node B,eNB)、接入点、基收发机站(Base Transceiver Station,BTS)、无线电基站、无线电收发机、基本服务集(Basic Service Set,BSS)、扩展服务集(Extended Service Set,ESS)、家用B节点、家用演进型B节点、发送接收点(Transmitting Receiving Point,TRP)或所述领域中其他某个合适的术语,只要达到相同的技术效果,所述基站不限于特定技术词汇,需要说明的是,在本申请实施例中仅以NR***中的基站为例进行介绍,并不限定基站的具体类型。
在无线通信中,在经过波束测量和波束报告后,网络侧设备可以对下行与上行链路的信道或参考信号做波束指示,用于网络侧设备与用户设备(User Equipment,UE)(例如终端),之间建立波束链路,实现信道或参考信号的传输。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中的波束信息,可以包括以下至少一项:
波束的标识信息、空间关系(spatial relation)信息、空域发送滤波器(spatial domain transmission filter)信息、空域接收滤波器(spatial domain reception filter)信息、空域滤波器(spatial filter)信息、传输配置指示状态(TCI状态)信息、准共址(Quasi-colocation,QCL)信息、QCL参数。其中,下行波束信息通常可使用TCI状态信息或QCL信息表示。上行波束信息通常可使用TCI状态信息或spatial relation信息表示。
在相关技术中,每一种信道或参考信号具有各自的波束指示机制:
1)对于物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel,PDCCH)的波束指示:网络侧设备使用无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control,RRC) 信令为每个控制资源集(Control resource set,CORESET)配置K个TCI状态,当K>1时,由媒体接入控制(Medium Access Control,MAC)控制单元(Control Element,CE)指示或激活1个TCI状态,当K=1时,不需要额外的MAC CE信令。UE在监听PDCCH时,对CORESET内全部搜索空间(Search Space,SS)使用相同QCL,即相同的TCI状态来监听PDCCH。该TCI状态中的参考信号(reference Signal),例如:周期信道状态信息参考信号(Channel State Information Reference Signal,CSI-RS)资源(resource)、半持续CSI-RS resource、同步信号块(Synchronization Signal Block,SSB)等)与UE专用(UE-specific)PDCCH的解调参考信号(Demodulation Reference Signal,DMRS)端口是空间QCL的。UE根据该TCI状态即可获知使用哪个接收波束来接收PDCCH。
2)对于物理下行共享信道(Physical Downlink Shared Channel,PDSCH)的波束指示:网络侧设备通过RRC信令配置M个TCI状态,再使用MAC CE信令激活对应最多8个码点(codepoint)的TCI状态,然后通过下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information,DCI)的3-bit TCI域(field)来通知TCI状态,该TCI状态中的referenceSignal与要调度的PDSCH的DMRS端口是QCL的。UE根据该TCI状态即可获知使用哪个接收波束来接收PDSCH。
3)对于CSI-RS的波束指示:当CSI-RS类型为周期CSI-RS时,网络侧设备通过RRC信令为CSI-RS resource配置QCL信息。当CSI-RS类型为半持续CSI-RS时,网络侧设备通过MAC CE信令来从RRC配置的CSI-RS resource set中激活一个CSI-RS resource时指示其QCL信息。当CSI-RS类型为非周期CSI-RS时,网络侧设备通过RRC信令为CSI-RS resource配置QCL,并使用DCI来触发CSI-RS。
4)对于物理上行控制信道(Physical Uplink Control Channel,PUCCH)的波束指示:网络侧设备使用RRC信令通过参数“PUCCH空间关系信息(PUCCH-SpatialRelationInfo)”为每个PUCCH resource配置空间关系信息(spatial relation information),当为PUCCH resource配置的spatial relation information包含多个时,使用MAC CE指示或激活其中一个spatial relation information。当为PUCCH resource配置的spatial relation information只包含1 个时,不需要额外的MAC CE信令。
5)对于物理上行共享信道(Physical Uplink Shared Channel,PUSCH)的波束指示:PUSCH的spatial relation信息是当PDCCH承载的DCI调度PUSCH时,DCI中的探测参考信号(Sounding Reference Signal,SRS)资源指示(SRS resource indicator,SRI)field的每个SRI codepoint指示一个SRI,该SRI用于指示PUSCH的spatial relation information。
6)对于SRS的波束指示:当SRS类型为周期SRS时,网络侧设备通过RRC信令为SRS resource配置spatial relation information。当SRS类型为半持续SRS时,网络侧设备通过MAC CE信令激活spatial relation information。当SRS类型为非周期SRS时,网络侧设备通过RRC信令为SRS resource配置spatial relation information,并且可以通过MAC CE信令来更新。
由上可知,相关技术中,基于不同类型的信道或参考信号需要通过与该信道或参考信号对应的波束指示流程来指示其使用的目标TCI状态,由此可见,该波束指示的流程较为复杂。
为了简化波束指示流程,在5G NR的第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project,3GPP)的公开版本(Release)17中引入了新的TCI框架(framework),该框架可称之为统一TCI框架(unified TCI framework),即网络侧设备使用MAC CE和/或DCI指示的同一个波束(beam)可以用于多个信道的传输,这种beam也可称为公共波束(common beam)。
该unified TCI framework的波束指示流程如下:
网络侧设备通过RRC信令配置TCI状态池(pool),并使用MAC CE信令激活该TCI状态pool中的1个或多个TCI状态。当MAC CE激活了与1个codepoint对应的TCI状态时,则激活的TCI状态直接应用于目标信号。当MAC CE激活了与多个codepoint分别对应的TCI状态时,网络侧设备再使用DCI中的TCI field来指示一个codepoint,该1个codepoint对应的TCI状态应用于目标信号。
其中,在unified TCI framework中的TCI状态可以包括联合(joint)TCI状态和独立(separate)TCI状态两种模式,该模式是由网络侧设备的RRC信令来配置的。其中,对于joint TCI状态,每个codepoint对应1个TCI状态; 对于separate TCI状态,每个codepoint可以对应一个1个下行链路(Down Link,DL)TCI状态和1个上行链路(Up Link,UL)TCI状态、或1个DL TCI状态、或1个UL TCI状态。
对于TCI状态的源(source)RS,可以分为以下两种情况:
1)DL:用于波束管理的CSI-RS(CSI-RS for beam management),用于跟踪的CSI-RS(CSI-RS for tracking);
2)UL:SSB,CSI-RS for beam management,CSI-RS for tracking,用于波束管理的SRS(SRS for beam management)。
对于TCI状态的目标信号,可以分为以下两种情况:
1)DL:PDSCH上的UE专用接收(UE-dedicated reception on PDSCH)、所有CORESET或CORESET子集上的UE专用接收(UE-dedicated reception on all or subset of CORESETs)、用于CSI的非周期CSI-RS资源(Aperiodic CSI-RS resources for CSI)、用于波束管理(Beam Management,BM)的非周期CSI-RS资源(Aperiodic CSI-RS resources for BM)、与CORESET上的非UE专用接收相关联的DMRS以及相关联的PDSCH(与服务小区物理小区标识(Physical Cell Identifier,PCI)相关联)(DMRS(s)associated with non-UE-dedicated reception on CORESET(s)and the associated PDSCH(associated with the serving cell PCI));
2)UL:基于动态授权/配置授权的PUSCH(dynamic-grant/configured-grant based PUSCH)、所有专用PUCCH资源(all of dedicated PUCCH resources)、BM的非周期SRS资源或资源集(Aperiodic SRS resources or resource sets for BM)、天线切换的SRS(SRS for antenna switching)、码本的SRS(SRS for codebook)、非码本的SRS(SRS for non-codebook)。
在实施中,在网络侧设备使用DCI进行波束指示时,支持具有DL分配的DCI格式(formats)1_1/1_2和不具有DL分配的DCI format 1_1/1_2。
波束指示(Beam indication)DCI指示的TCI状态的生效时间(beam application time),定义为:应用所指示的TCI状态的第一个时隙至少是联合或独立DL/UL波束指示的确认信息的最后一个符号之后的第Y个符号(the first slot to apply the indicated TCI is at least Y symbols after the last symbol of  the acknowledgment of the joint or separate DL/UL beam indication)后的第一个时隙。
功控参数中的路径损耗(pathloss RS,PLRS),是由网络侧设备配置在TCI状态内或者与TCI状态关联的。
功控参数中的其它参数(例如:P0、阿尔法(alpha)和闭环索引(close loop index)等参数配置),是由网络侧设备配置关联到TCI状态。对于PUCCH、PUSCH、SRS,都会有各自的参数配置(setting)与TCI状态关联、或包含在各信道的配置信息中。
对于载波聚合(Carrier Aggregation,CA)场景,网络为成员载波(Component Carrier,CC)列表中的全部CC上的目标信号指示公共QCL信息(common QCL information)和/或公共UL TX空间滤波器(common UL TX spatial filter(s)across a set of configured CC)。
需要说明的是,虽然如上3GPP R17中提出了unified TCI framework,但是,其仅适用于单TRP(single-TRP,sTRP)场景,而对于3GPP R16中引入的多TRP(multi-TRP,mTRP)传输并不适用。也就是说,目前没有在mTRP场景中对各信道应用unified TCI framework的方案,尤其是当mTRP场景中使用了相干联合传输(Coherent Joint Transmission,CJT)传输模式时,网络侧设备指示的unified TCI状态(state)(即unified TCI framework中对应公共波束的TCI state,本申请实施例中也将unified TCI state称之为公共TCI状态)的数量可以达到4个,相关技术中没有提出如何从网络侧设备指示的unified TCI state中确定各信道或参考信号的波束信息的方案。
而本申请实施例,正是提出一种可以在mTRP场景中对信道和/或参考信号应用unified TCI framework时,如何从网络侧设备指示的unified TCI state(即第一TCI状态)中确定各信道或参考信号的波束信息的方案。
下面结合附图,通过一些实施例及其应用场景对本申请实施例提供的TCI状态确定方法、TCI状态确定装置、终端和网络侧设备进行详细地说明。
请参阅图2,本申请实施例提供的一种TCI状态确定方法,其执行主体可以是终端,该终端可以是如图1中列举的各种终端11或者其他类型的终端,在此不作具体限定。如图2所示,该TCI状态确定方法可以包括以下步骤:
步骤201、终端获取网络侧设备指示的公共波束信息,其中,所述公共波束信息包括M个第一TCI状态,M为正整数。
其中,上述第一TCI状态可以理解为可供mTRP场景中的各信道和参考信号共享的激活的或指示的TCI状态,例如:网络侧设备通过RRC信令配置TCI状态pool,并使用MAC CE信令激活1个或至少两个codepoint对应的TCI状态,当激活的TCI状态对应的codepoint数量大于1时,网络侧设备再使用DCI中的TCI field来指示激活的至少部分TCI状态作为第一TCI状态。
其中,多TRP场景可以理解为一个网络侧设备可以具有至少两个TRP,且不同的TRP可以包括相同和/或不同的波束。在传输过程中,网络侧设备可以经由该至少两个TRP中的一个或多个与终端通信。
多TRP传输又可以基于控制信令分为单DCI调度(sDCI)和多DCI(mDCI)调度两种情况:
1、多DCI(multi-DCI,mDCI)调度:每个TRP发送各自的PDCCH,每个PDCCH调度各自的PDSCH,此时为UE配置的多个CORESET关联到不同的RRC参数控制资源集池索引(CORESETPoolIndex),以利用CORESETPoolIndex来对应不同的TRP。此时,两个TRP调度的PDSCH可以完全重叠、部分重叠或不重叠,且两个TRP调度各自的PUSCH不能重叠。
2、单DCI(single DCI,sDCI)调度:由一个TRP发送PDCCH调度一个PDSCH,此时为UE配置的多个CORESET不能关联到不同的CORESETPoolIndex。在这种情况下,MAC CE激活最多8个码点(codepoint),其中至少一个码点对应两个TCI状态。当一个DCI中TCI field指示的codepoint对应两个TCI状态且指示有一个TCI状态包含“QCL-TypeD”时,意味着调度PDSCH来自两个TRP,该PDSCH包括多种传输方案,如:PDSCH的不同层的数据对应两个TCI状态(方案1a,空分复用(Space Division Multiplexing,SDM));或者不同频域子载波上的数据对应两个TCI状态(方案2a/2b,频分复用(Frequency Division Multiplex,FDM));或者各次时域重复来自不同TRP(方案3/4,时分复用(Time Division Multiplexing,TDM))。
相关技术中的3GPP R17支持mTRP场景中的PDCCH重复(repetition)传输方案,且该方案只能应用在sDCI调度中。
具体的,通过RRC信令显式配置PDCCH所在的两个搜索空间集(search space set,SS set)相互关联。其中,两个SS set不限制是关联到同一个或不同的CORESET。不限制两个SS set所关联的CORESET的TCI state是否相同或不同。UE不期望第三个监听的SS set关联到上述两个相互关联的SS set中任意一个。两个相互关联的SS set具有相同的周期、起始位置(offset)、持续时间(duration)、监测时机(monitoring occasion)数量、聚合级别(Aggregation Level,AL)等。一个SS set的第n个monitoring occasion关联另一个SS set的第n个monitoring occasion,两个候选PDCCH具有相同的候选标识(candidate index)。不支持时隙间(inter-slot)的PDCCH repetition。上述SS set仅可以是终端专用搜索空间(UE-specific Search Space,USS)和Type3公共搜索空间(Common Search Space,CSS)。RRC参数恢复搜索空间Id(recoverySearchSpaceId)所配置的SS set不与其它SS set相关联。
相关技术中的3GPP R17支持了mTRP场景中一个DCI动态调度TDM方式的PUSCH repetition传输方案。
具体的,对于每个PUSCH重复分别使用对应不同TRP的多个发送波束(spatial relation)进行发送,以提高PUSCH传输的可靠性。对于Type A(slot-level)的PUSCH重复来说,一次PUSCH重复是指每个时隙内的一个PUSCH传输时机;对于Type B的PUSCH重复,一次PUSCH重复则为名义重复(nominal repetition)。DCI中可以指示两套波束(spatial relation)、预编码矩阵(Transmitted Precoding Matrix Indicator,TPMI)、功控参数等,并且在DCI中增加一个2bit的新指示域以支持在单TRP(single TRP,sTRP)和mTRP之间动态切换,以及灵活交换PUSCH重复发送波束的先后顺序。各次PUSCH重复与波束的映射关系可由RRC参数配置为轮流映射(cyclic mapping)和连续映射(sequential mapping)。
相关技术中的3GPP R17支持了多TRP场景中的PUCCH repetition的传输方案。
具体的,网络给PUCCH资源或PUCCH group激活两个波束的空间关系(spatial relation),则该PUCCH各次重复采用两个波束发送。
各次PUCCH重复与波束的映射关系可由RRC参数配置为轮流映射 (cyclic mapping)和连续映射(sequential mapping)。
相关技术中的3GPP R17支持PDCCH单频网络(Single Frequency Network,SFN)传输方案和PDSCH SFN传输方案。
具体的,RRC信令配置PDCCH或PDSCH的SFN传输方案。其中,PDCCH只能是在USS或Type3CSS上监听。
MAC CE命令可以激活2个TCI state,用于PDCCH使用2个波束进行SFN传输。
SFN传输方案中包括方案1(scheme1)(UE高级接收机)和预补偿。其中,SFN PDCCH(方案1)可以调度sTRP PDSCH(UE能力(capability)),SFN PDCCH(方案1,预补偿)可以调度SFN PDSCH(方案1或预补偿,两个模式一一对应调度),sTRP PDCCH(仅与USS或type3CSS关联(only associated with终端专用搜索空间(UE-specific Search Space,USS)或第三类型公共搜索空间(type3Common Search Space,type3CSS)))可以调度sTRP PDSCH(legacy)or SFN PDSCH(scheme1+预补偿),sTRP PDCCH associated with CSS or CSS+USS可以调度sTRP PDSCH。但是,SFN PDCCH不能调度3GPP R16中的PDSCH传输方案。
本申请实施例中,可以将unified TCI framework应用于上述mTPR场景下的PDCCH、PDSCH、PUSCH、SRS和CSI-RS的TCI确定方案。
在实施中,所述M个第一TCI状态包括以下至少一项:M1个joint TCI状态、M2个separate DL TCI状态以及M3个separate UL TCI状态,M1、M2和M3分别为大于或者等于0的整数,且M1、M2和M3中的至少一个大于0。
在实施中,上述M通常可以等2,当然,在CJT传输模式下,M可以也可能大于2(例如:M=4),或者,M也可以等于1,为了便于说明,以下实施例中通常以在非CJT传输模式下,M=2,且在CJT传输模式下,M=4为典型举例进行说明,在此对第一TCI状态的数量不构成具体限定。
步骤202、所述终端从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态;其中,所述目标信道,包括:物理上行控制信道PUCCH、物理下行控制信道PDCCH、物理下行共享信道PDSCH和物理上行共享信道 PUSCH中的至少一项;所述目标信号包括:探测参考信号SRS和信道状态信息参考信号CSI-RS中的至少一项。
其中,终端可以根据网络侧设备的指示、协议中预先约定的规则等方式来确定各个目标信道和/或目标信号使用的目标TCI状态。以使mTRP场景中的信道和/或信号(包括:PUCCH、PUSCH、UL RS、PDCCH、PDSCH、CSI-RS等),能够应用unified TCI状态。
在一种实现方式中,上述根据网络侧设备的指示来确定各个目标信道和/或目标信号使用的目标TCI状态的方式,可以是由网络侧设备指示各个信道或信号使用的TCI状态的标识,或者由网络侧设备指示各个信道或信号的第一标识与TCI状态之间的对应关系等,从而能够按照网络侧设备的指示来确定每一个信道或信号使用的TCI状态。
在另一种实现方式中,上述根据协议中预先约定的规则方式来确定各个目标信道和/或目标信号使用的目标TCI状态的方式,可以在协议中约定各个信道或信号的相关信息(如:信道或信号类型、需要的TCI状态数量、对应的标识等)与TCI状态之间的对应关系、各个信道或信号采用某一TCI状态的条件、各个信道或信号的TCI状态的选择范围等,从而能够基于议中预先约定的规则来确定每一个信道或信号使用的TCI状态。

3)所述目标信道和/或目标信号所对应的第一标识信息的数量。在实施中,可以根据目标信道和/或目标信号所对应的第一标识信息的数量来判断目标信道和/或目标信号需要的第一TCI状态的数量,例如:每一个SRS资源集(SRS resource set)中的SRS资源(SRS resource)使用该SRS资源集对应的同一个第一TCI状态;
4)所述目标信道和/或目标信号对应的第一标识信息的值。在实施中,可以根据目标信道和/或目标信号所对应的第一标识信息的值来确定该第一标识信息的值对应的第一TCI状态作为该目标信道和/或目标信号使用的TCI状态;
5)所述M个第一TCI状态的排列顺序或位置。在实施中,可以将M个第一TCI状态的排列顺序或位置作为第一TCI状态与目标信道和/或目标信号 之间的对应关系的依据,例如:排列于第一位的第一TCI状态与取值最小的第一标识信息的目标信道和/或目标信号对应,排列于第二位的第一TCI状态与取值大于最小的第一标识信息的最小的一个第一标识信息的目标信道和/或目标信号对应;
6)所述目标信道和/或目标信号所对应的第一标识信息的排列顺序。在实施中,可以将各个第一标识信息的排列顺序作为第一TCI状态与目标信道和/或目标信号之间的对应关系的依据,例如:排列于第一位的第一TCI状态与排列于第一位的第一标识信息的目标信道和/或目标信号对应,排列于第二位的第一TCI状态与排列于第二位的第一标识信息的目标信道和/或目标信号对应;
7)所述目标信道和/或目标信号的类型。在实施中,不同类型的目标信道和/或目标信号其使用的TCI状态的类型、数量等可能不同,可以按照不同的对应规则来从M个第一TCI状态中确定其使用的TCI状态;
8)所述目标信道和/或目标信号的传输模式。该目标信道和/或目标信号的传输模式可以包括:重复(repetition)传输模式、多波束同时传输(例如:单频网络(Single Frequency Network,SFN)传输、频分复用(Frequency Division Multiplex,FDM)、空分复用(Space Division Multiplex,SDM)等传输模式、预设传输模式(即无repetition的单波束传输模式)或所述预设传输模式、所述重复传输模式以及所述多波束同时传输的模式动态切换的传输模式。需要说明的是,以下实施例中,为了便于说明,将多波束同时传输的模式统一称之为SFN传输模式,在此不构成具体限定。在实施中,不同传输模式的目标信道和/或目标信号其使用的TCI状态的数量等可能不同,可以按照不同的对应规则来从M个第一TCI状态中确定对应模型下的TCI状态;
9)所述目标信道和/或目标信号的时域行为。其中,时域行为可以包括周期、半持续、非周期,不同时域行为的目标信道和/或目标信号,其触发或调度或配置的流程可能不同,此时,可以基于目标信道和/或目标信号的时域行为相匹配的规则来确定对应模型下的TCI状态,例如:对于非周期的信号,可以复用触发该非周期信号的DCI中的指示域来指示其使用的TCI状态;
10)第一信息或第二信息,所述第一信息表示第一下行控制信息DCI调 度了PUSCH或PDSCH,所述第二信息表示第一DCI未调度PUSCH或PDSCH,所述第一DCI用于触发所述目标信号或者调度所述目标信道。在实施中,若触发所述目标信号或者调度所述目标信道的第一DCI还调度了PUSCH或PDSCH,则可以确定所述目标信号或者目标信道的TCI状态,与PUSCH或PDSCH各自的TCI状态可以相同或不同或相互对应;
11)所述第一DCI的目标指示域,所述目标指示域用于指示所述M个第一TCI状态中的至少一个。在实施中,可以通过第一DCI的目标指示域来指示目标信号或者目标信道以及PUSCH或PDSCH中的至少一个使用的第一TCI状态。
需要说明的是,为了便于区分本申请中用于指示用于CSI-RS resource的TCI状态的field和用于指示调度的PDSCH使用的TCI状态的field,将第一DCI中的目标指示域区分为第一field、第二field和第三field,其中,第一field用于指示触发的SRS资源的TCI状态;第二field用于指示触发的CSI-RS resource的TCI状态;第三field用于指示调度的PDSCH或PUSCH的TCI状态。
12)N个预设TCI状态,所述公共波束信息包括所述N个预设TCI状态,N为小于或者等于M的正整数。

所述终端根据目标信息,从所述N个预设TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态。
本实施方式中,上述N个预设TCI状态可以是网络侧设备指示或者协议中约定的从所述M个第一TCI状态中选择的N个TCI状态,这样,后续确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI时,可以从该N个预设TCI状态中选择,这样,可以缩小TCI状态的选择范围。
13)所述N个预设TCI状态与所述第一标识信息之间的对应关系。该N 个预设TCI状态与所述第一标识信息之间的对应关系,与上述M个第一TCI状态与所述第一标识信息之间的对应关系相似,在此不再赘述。
在实施中,根据目标信道和/或目标信号的类型、传输模式等的不同,该目标信道和/或目标信号所需的TCI状态的数量、类型等也会发生改变,这样,就会存在网络侧设备指示的第一TCI状态的数量大于、小于或等于所述目标信道和/或目标信号所需的TCI状态的数量的情况。
可选地,在目标信号包括SRS的情况下,上述第一标识信息包括以下至少一项:
SRS资源集标识信息,在实施中,一个SRS资源集可以包括至少一个SRS资源,此时,目标信号包括SRS资源集标识信息所标识的SRS资源集中的全部SRS资源的SRS;

基于上述DMRS组标识信息、DMRS端口标识信息、频域资源标识信息、层标识信息,可以标识PDSCH或PUSCH的DMRS组(group)、DMRS端口(port)、频域资源、层(layer),这样,可以指示PDSCH或PUSCH的各个DMRS group、DMRS port、频域资源或layer使用的TCI状态。
当然,在目标信道包括PUCCH的情况下,上述第一标识信息包括PUCCH资源或PUCCH资源组的标识信息,例如:PUCCH resource ID或PUCCH resource group ID,在此并不穷举。
本实施方式中,通过上述第一标识信息可以对目标信道或目标信号进行标识,从而可以根据该标识与TCI状态之间的对应关系来确定各个标识对应的目标信道或目标信号所使用的TCI状态。
下面结合具体的应用场景,对本申请实施例提供的TCI状态的确定方法进行具体说明:
场景一、根据指示的unified TCI state,确定SRS的目标TCI state。
网络侧设备可以配置1个或多个SRS resource set,其中,SRS resource set的用法(usage)可由网络配置为码本(codebook)、非码本(non-codebook)、天线切换(antenna switching)、波束管理(beam management)等。
在实施中,可以由网络侧设备来配置使能或者不使能SRS resource set使用unified TCI state,例如:在SRS resource set的配置信息中将参数接受统一 TCI状态(followUnifiedTCIstate)的值设置为使能(enabled),以使能SRS resource set使用unified TCI state。
此外,SRS可以是周期性的SRS或非周期性的SRS或半持续的SRS。下面提供两种方式,来确定SRS的目标TCI状态:
方式一:对非周期性的SRS采用与其他时域行为的SRS不同的方式来确定目标TCI状态:
对于非周期性的SRS,其可以由第一DCI触发,此时,可以根据以下至少一项确定该非周期SRS的目标TCI状态:
作为一种可选地实施方式,在所述第一DCI用于调度PUSCH的情况下,所述目标指示域指示所述第一DCI调度的PUSCH的TCI状态,所述M个第一TCI状态包括所述第一DCI调度的PUSCH的TCI状态;
所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
所述终端确定目标信号的目标TCI状态包括所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态,所述目标信号包括以下至少一项:
所述终端需要发送的SRS资源集中的SRS,其中,所述终端需要发送的SRS资源集根据所述第一DCI触发的SRS资源集标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述终端需要发送的SRS资源中的SRS,其中,所述终端需要发送的SRS资源根据所述第一DCI触发的SRS资源标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述第一DCI的目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述第一DCI触发的全部SRS资源集或SRS资源中的SRS。
其中,SRS资源集标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,可以是SRS资源集标识信息与所述M个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,或者是SRS资源集标识信息与所述N个预设TCI状态之间的对应关系,在此不作具体限定。
本实施方式中,在触发SRS的第一DCI还调度了PUSCH的情况下,该第一DCI中的目标指示域所指示的TCI状态可以优先用于调度的PUSCH,且该第一DCI所触发的SRS的全部或者部分可以使用目标指示域所指示的 TCI状态。
作为一种可能的实现方式,可以在第一DCI所触发的SRS resource set的数量、或第一DCI所触发的SRS resource set中的SRS resource的数量,与第一DCI的第一field指示的TCI state的数量相等,或者SRS resource set中SRS resource的TCI state与该第一field指示的TCI state对应相同的情况下,终端可以确定目标信号包括第一DCI触发的全部SRS资源集或SRS资源中的SRS,以及确定各个SRS与第一field指示的TCI state之间的对应关系,从而确定各个SRS使用的TCI state。
例如:网络侧设备通过第一field指示PUSCH使用M1个jointTCI状态和M3个separate UL TCI状态中的1个TCI state,若第一DCI指示触发了一个SRS resource set,则该一SRS resource set中SRS resource也使用第一field指示的TCI state。
作为一种可能的实现方式,在目标信号包括所述终端需要发送的SRS资源集中的SRS的情况下,所述终端根据所述第一DCI触发的SRS资源集标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定需要发送的SRS资源集,以及各个SRS资源集对应的第一TCI状态。也就是说,终端仅需要发送第一field指示的TCI state所对应的SRS资源集中的SRS,对于DCI所触发的,且不与第一field指示的TCI state所对应的SRS资源集中的SRS则可以不发送。
例如:网络侧设备通过第一field指示PUSCH使用M1/M3个TCI state中的1个TCI state,且网络侧设备预先配置或协议预先约定了SRS resource set与M1/M3个TCI state之间的对应关系,则仅发送被触发的SRS resource set中的,且与第一field指示的1个TCI state所对应的SRS resource set中的SRS。
再例如:网络侧设备通过第一field指示PUSCH使用M1/M3个TCI state中的K>1个TCI state,且第一DCI触发了K个SRS resource set,则第一field指示的K个TCI state分别用作K个SRS resource set中SRS resource的TCI state,其中,K个SRS resource set与K个TCI state一一对应。
作为一种可能的实现方式,在目标信号包括所述终端需要发送的SRS资源中的SRS的情况下,所述终端根据所述第一DCI触发的SRS资源标识信 息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定需要发送的SRS资源,以及各个SRS资源对应的第一TCI状态。也就是说,终端仅需要发送第一field指示的TCI state所对应的SRS资源中的SRS,对于DCI所触发的,且不与第一field指示的TCI state所对应的SRS资源中的SRS则可以不发送。
例如:网络侧设备通过第一field指示PUSCH使用M1/M3个TCI state中的L(L≥1)个TCI state,且第一DCI触发了1个SRS resource set,该SRS resource set包含L个SRS resource,则第一field指示的L个TCI state分别用作触发的SRS resource set中的L个SRS resource的TCI state。
作为一种可选地实施方式,在所述第一DCI用于调度PDSCH的情况下,所述目标指示域指示所述第一DCI调度的PDSCH的TCI状态,所述M个第一TCI状态包括与第三TCI状态对应相同码点的TCI状态和所述第三TCI状态,所述第三TCI状态包括所述第一DCI调度的PDSCH的TCI状态;
所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
所述终端确定目标信号的目标TCI状态包括与所述第三TCI状态对应相同码点的TCI状态或所述第三TCI状态,所述目标信号包括以下至少一项:
所述终端需要发送的SRS资源集中的SRS,其中,所述终端需要发送的SRS资源集根据所述第一DCI触发的SRS资源集标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述终端需要发送的SRS资源中的SRS,其中,所述终端需要发送的SRS资源根据所述第一DCI触发的SRS资源标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述第一DCI的目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述第一DCI触发的全部SRS资源集或SRS资源中的SRS。
本实施方式与上一可选的实施方式中,在第一DCI调度PUSCH时,所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态的过程相似,不同之处在于:在第一DCI调度PUSCH时,该第一DCI中的第一field所指示的TCI状态为joint TCI状态和/或UL TCI状态;在第一DCI调度PDSCH时,该第一DCI中的第一field所指示的TCI 状态为joint TCI状态和/或DL TCI状态。而SRS需要使用UL TCI状态,本实施方式中,若第一field所指示的TCI状态为DL TCI状态,则从与该DL TCI状态对应相同码点的UL TCI状态中确定用于SRS的TCI状态,对于各个SRS资源集/资源与TCI状态之间的对应关系可以参考上一可选的实施方式,在此不再赘述。
值得提出的是,以上实施例中,需要发送的SRS资源集/SRS资源,可以采用以下方式确定:
1a)通过第一DCI中的SRS请求(SRS request)域所指示的SRS触发状态(SRS trigger state)来确定需要发送的SRS resource set(需要说明的是,相关技术中SRS trigger state最多支持4个trigger state,本申请实施例中,M可以大于2,例如:M=4,此时需要扩充SRS request域的比特尺寸(bit size))。
例如:假设第一个SRS resource set:其中ID=2,usage为codebook,trigger state(触发状态)为1和2,对应UL TCI state1;第二个SRS resource set:其中ID=4,usage为codebook,trigger state为2和3,对应UL TCI state2。这样,当DCI中的SRS request域指示的SRS trigger state=1时,发送第一个SRS resource set中的SRS resource;当DCI中的SRS request域指示的SRS trigger state=2时,发送第一个SRS resource set中的SRS resource和第二个SRS resource set中的SRS resource;当DCI中的SRS request域指示的SRS trigger state=3时,发送第二个SRS resource set中的SRS resource。
2a)在第一DCI中的SRS request域指示的SRS trigger state对应X=2个SRS resource set,且两个SRS resource set的usage均为codebook或non-codebook(即有两个usage为codebook或non-codebook的SRS resource set对应相同的trigger state)时,第一DCI中的SRS资源集指示域(SRS resource set indicator field)指示触发对应相同trigger state的X=2个SRS resource set中的一个或2个,以及指示两个SRS resource set的顺序。
例如:假设第一个SRS resource set:其中ID=2,usage为codebook,trigger state为2,对应UL TCI state1;第二个SRS resource set:其中ID=4,usage为codebook,trigger state为2,对应UL TCI state2。这样,当DCI中的SRS request域指示的SRS trigger state=2时,若DCI中的SRS resource set indicator  field指示0,发送第一个SRS resource set中的SRS resource;若DCI中的SRS resource set indicator field指示1,发送第二个SRS resource set中的SRS resource;若DCI中的SRS resource set indicator field指示2或3,发送第一个SRS resource set中的SRS resource和第二个SRS resource set中的SRS resource。
当然,上述触发SRS的第一DCI也可能没有调度PUSCH或PDSCH,此时,第一DCI触发的SRS使用的TCI状态可以采用以下方式确定。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述目标信号包括SRS,且所述SRS的周期行为是非周期性的情况下,所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
若第一DCI用于触发K个SRS资源集,所述第一DCI未调度PDSCH或PUSCH,且所述第一DCI的目标指示域指示K个第一TCI状态,则所述终端根据所述K个SRS资源集与所述K个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,确定所述K个SRS资源集中的每一个SRS资源集的TCI状态,其中,所述目标TCI状态包括所述K个第一TCI状态,K为正整数;和/或,
若第一DCI用于触发K个SRS资源集,所述第一DCI未调度PDSCH或PUSCH,且所述第一DCI的目标指示域指示X个第一TCI状态,则所述终端根据所述K个SRS资源集与所述X个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,确定所述K个SRS资源集中的每一个SRS资源的TCI状态,其中,所述目标信道和/或目标信号包括所述K个SRS资源集,所述目标TCI状态包括所述X个第一TCI状态,其中,X表示所述K个SRS资源集包括的SRS资源的总数,X为正整数。
本实施方式中,同一个SRS资源集中的SRS资源可以使用相同的TCI状态,且不同的SRS资源集中的SRS资源可以使用不同的TCI状态,或者,同一个SRS资源集中的不同SRS资源也可以使用不同的TCI状态。
例如:假设所述M个第一TCI状态包括M1=4个joint TCI state和M3=4个UL TCI state,且第一DCI中的第一field指示在M1/M3个TCI state中的用于各SRS resource的目标TCI state,则可以区分以下情况来确定各个SRS resource使用的TCI state:
情况1、第一DCI仅触发了K=1个SRS resource set时,第一field指示 一个TCI state(可以是从网络侧设备指示的M个第一TCI状态中使用第一field指示其中的一个TCI state,或者从网络侧设备指示的M个第一TCI状态中先确定N个预设TCI state,再使用第一field指示N个预设TCI state中的一个TCI state)为该SRS resource set中所有SRS resource的TCI state(如从4个TCI state中指示其中的1个);
情况2、第一DCI仅触发了K=1个SRS resource set(包含L个SRS resource)时,第一field指示L个TCI state(可以为从网络侧设备指示的M个第一TCI状态中使用第一field指示其中的L个TCI state,或者从网络侧设备指示的M个第一TCI状态中先确定N个预设TCI state,再使用第一field指示N个预设TCI state中的L个TCI state),分别用作该SRS resource set中的L个SRS resource的TCI state。例如:第一TCI state用作第一SRS resource的TCI state、第二TCI state用作第二SRS resource的TCI state,并依此类推。
可选地,上述L个TCI state与L个SRS resource之间的对应关系,可以通过网络侧设备的信令指示,如指示第一SRS resource对应L个中的第一TCI state或第一个TCI state,以此类推,或者,上述L个TCI state与L个SRS resource之间的对应关系无需网络侧设备的信令指示,而是按照SRS resource ID和TCI state的排序(TCI state的排序可以是在一个码点(codepoint)对应的所有TCI state ID的排序,或者各TCI state对应的码点(codepoint)之间的排序)相对应,如:最小SRS resource ID对应L个TCI state中的第一个TCI state;
情况3、第一DCI触发了K>1个SRS resource set时,第一field指示K个TCI state(可以为从网络侧设备指示的M个第一TCI状态中使用第一field指示其中的K个TCI state,或者从网络侧设备指示的M个第一TCI状态中先确定N个预设TCI state,再使用第一field指示N个预设TCI state中的K个TCI state),分别用作各SRS resource set中的SRS resource的TCI state,例如:第一TCI state用作第一SRS resource set中的SRS resource的TCI state、第二TCI state用作第二SRS resource set中的SRS resource的TCI state,并依此类推。
可选地,与上述L个TCI state与L个SRS resource之间的对应关系相似 的,上述K个SRS resource set与K个TCI state之间的对应关系,也可以通过网络侧设备的信令指示,如指示第一set对应K个中的第一TCI state或第一个TCI state,并依此类推;或对应关系无需网络侧设备的信令指示,而是按照SRS resource set ID和TCI state的排序相对应,如最小SRS resource set ID对应K个中的第一个TCI state。
以上实施方式中,对如何根据第一DCI的指示来确定各个非周期的SRS(即由第一DCI触发的SRS)使用的TCI状态,区分第一DCI是否调度了PUSCH或PDSCH的情况,提供了解决方案。
方式二:以下实施例中还提出了一种可以对任意时域行为(如周期、半持续、非周期)的SRS,采用相同的方式来确定各个SRS使用的TCI状态的实施方式:
1b)网络使用第一信令(如RRC信令或MAC CE命令或DCI信令),指示各SRS资源集/资源使用的一个或多个TCI状态。其中,例如:使用网络指示或协议约定从M个第一TCI状态中确定的N个预设TCI状态,或者使用M个第一TCI状态,再根据第一信令确定N个预设TCI状态或M个第一TCI状态中用于各SRS资源集/资源的TCI状态。
2b)根据网络指示的M个第一TCI状态与SRS resource set/resource的对应关系,确定SRS的TCI state。
例如:根据网络指示的M个第一TCI状态在其对应的codepoint中的先后排列顺序(或各第一TCI状态对应的codepoint的排列顺序)与SRS resource set ID的从小到大排序,进行一一对应,或者一个第一TCI状态对应多个SRS resource set,或者多个第一TCI状态对应一个SRS resource set。
其中,若一个SRS resource set对应多个TCI state时,该SRS resource set中的SRS resource与该多个TCI state也有对应关系,可以是SRS resource ID从小到大和该多个TCI state(或多个TCI state对应的codepoint)的排列顺序对应。
3b)根据网络指示或协议约定,从网络指示的M个第一TCI状态中确定N个预设TCI state,再采用与上述方式2a)类似的方式,根据N个预设TCI state与SRS resource set的对应关系,和/或,根据N个预设TCI state与SRS resource 的对应关系,确定SRS的目标TCI state。
作为一种可选的实施方式,m为所述M个第一TCI状态或所述N个预设TCI状态包括的适用于所述目标信道和/或目标信号的第一TCI状态的数量,K为所述目标信道和/或目标信号所对应的第一标识信息的数量;
所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
在m等于K的情况下,所述终端确定所述目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态包括所述m个第一TCI状态;和/或,
在m大于K的情况下,所述终端将所述m个第一TCI状态中的,且位于预设位置或来自所述网络侧设备的第一指示信息所指示的K个TCI状态,确定为目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态;和/或,
在m小于K的情况下,所述终端将所述m个第一TCI状态,确定为m个第一标识信息对应的目标信道和/或目标信号的TCI状态,所述m个第一标识信息为所述K个第一标识信息中的,且排列于预设位置或来自所述网络侧设备的第二指示信息所指示的m个第一标识信息;和/或,
所述终端确定所述目标TCI状态包括所述m个第一TCI状态和所述目标信道和/或目标信号原有的(K-m)个TCI状态。
其中,在m大于K时,上述第一指示信息可以用于指示部分第一TCI状态,例如:基于第一指示信息先从M个第一TCI状态中指示N个预设TCI状态,此时,K个TCI状态可以是N个预设TCI状态中的全部或者部分,当然,上述K个TCI状态也可以是M个第一TCI状态/N个预设TCI状态中排列于预设位置的K个,如:排列靠前的K个,或者,上述第一指示信息可以用于指示K个目标信道和/或目标信号对应的第一TCI状态。
在m小于K时,上述第二指示信息可以用于指示终端需要发送的目标信道和/或目标信号,或者,用于指示m个第一TCI状态对应的目标信道和/或目标信号。
例如:假设网络侧设备配置了K个usage为codebook或noncodebook的SRS resource set或SRS resource时,若网络侧设备指示了M1≥1个joint TCI state或M3≥1个UL TCI state(即m等于M1或M3),则所述K个SRS resource  set或SRS resource与UL unified TCI的对应关系,包括以下之一:
1c)K=m,则按照m个UL unified TCI state的排列顺序与K个SRS resource set/SRS resource的排列顺序,或者按照m个UL unified TCI state与K个SRS resource set/SRS resource的对应关系,将m与K个SRS resource set/SRS resource一一对应;
2c)K>m,K个SRS resource set/SRS resource中的前m个与m个UL unified TCI state一一对应,其他SRS resource set/SRS resource不传输,其中,K个SRS resource set/SRS resource中的前m个可以是如上实施例中确定的终端需要发送的SRS resource set/SRS resource,或者是网络侧设备指示的使用m个UL unified TCI state的SRS resource set/SRS resource;此时,对于剩余的(K-m)个SRS resource set/SRS resource,可以不发送。
3c)K<m,K个SRS resource set/SRS resource与K个UL unified TCI state一一对应,其中,K个UL unified TCI state可以是M1/M3个UL unified TCI state中排列靠前的K个,或者是网络侧设备指示或协议中约定的N个预设TCI状态包括K个UL unified TCI state,或者网络侧设备配置指示K个SRS resource set/SRS resource分别使用的UL unified TCI state;此时,对于剩余的(K-m)个UL unified TCI state可以用于其他信道或信号。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在M等于1的情况下,所述终端从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
所述终端根据所述1个第一TCI状态更新所述目标信道和/或目标信号原有的TCI状态中的第一预设TCI状态,得到所述目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,所述第一预设TCI状态为所述目标信道和/或目标信号原有的TCI状态中的一个;或者,
所述终端确定所述目标信道或目标信号基于所述1个第一TCI状态进行单波束或单TRP传输;或者,
所述终端确定所述目标信道和/或目标信号共用所述1个第一TCI状态。
其中,所述终端确定所述目标信道和/或目标信号基于所述1个第一TCI状态进行单波束或单TRP传输,包括:
所述终端确定需要传输的目标信道和/或目标信号包括与所述1个第一 TCI状态关联的目标信道和/或目标信号;或者,
所述终端确定需要传输的目标信道和/或目标信号包括与所述1个第一TCI状态对应的目标资源相关联的目标信道和/或目标信号;
其中,所述目标资源包括以下至少一项:
小区标识、物理小区标识、带宽部分(bandwidth Part,BWP)标识、发送接收点TRP标识、公共TCI状态池标识、公共TCI状态类型值、CORESET组标识、CORESET标识、信道组标识、CORESET池标识、搜索空间集标识、搜索空间ID、同步信号块SSB ID,SSB组ID。
例如:当网络指示了M1/M2/M3=1(即M=1)个unified TCI state的情况下,则可以根据以下方式确定目标信道/目标信号及其目标TCI状态:
1d)更新目标信道/目标信号当前所用TCI state中的预设TCI state,该预设TCI state可以是网络指示的且目标信道/目标信号当前使用的TCI state中的某个TCI state,或者,通过协议约定或默认的方式将预设TCI state固定为目标信道/目标信号当前所用TCI state中的某个TCI state(如:第一个TCI state),且未更新的TCI state保持不变,其中,目标信道/目标信号与上述预设TCI state对应(如网络侧设备指示对应关系,或者协议约定对应关系);
2d)将切换至单波束或单TRP的传输模式:
2d-1)根据该TCI state确定所需传输的SRS resource set/SRS resource。与该TCI state或TCI state所对应TRP相关联的SRS resource set/SRS resource,使用该TCI state。其余SRS resource set/SRS resource停止发送。或网络侧设备仅指示终端发送与该TCI state或TCI state所对应TRP相关联的SRS resource set/SRS resource。此时,目标信道/目标信号包括与该TCI state对应的SRS resource set/SRS resource,或者,目标信道/目标信号包括与TCI state所对应TRP相关联的SRS resource set/SRS resource。
2d-2)所有SRS resource set/SRS resource都使用该TCI state,即目标信道/目标信号包括所有SRS resource set/SRS resource。
本实施方式中,对于任意时域行为(如周期、半持续、非周期)的SRS,都可以采用相同的方式来确定目标TCI状态。
场景二、根据指示的unified TCI state,确定CSI-RS的TCI state信息。
其中,CSI-RS的用途可以是beam management、TRS、CSI获取(acquisition)等。且一个CSI-RS resource set中可以配置一个或多个CSI-RS resource group,每个CSI-RS resource group中又可以包括1个或多个CSI-RS resource。
这样,网络侧设备在配置CSI-RS使用unified TCI state时,可以是对各CSI-RS resource set、或各CSI-RS resource group、或各CSI-RS resource进行配置。如:第一TCI状态与第一标识信息之间的对应关系,可以是CSI-RS resource set ID或CSI-RS resource group ID或CSI-RS resource ID与第一TCI状态之间的对应关系。
其中,若第一TCI状态与第一标识信息之间的对应关系,是CSI-RS resource set ID与第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,则一个CSI-RS resource set内的全部CSI-RS resource可以使用相同的TCI状态;若第一TCI状态与第一标识信息之间的对应关系,是CSI-RS resource group ID与第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,则一个CSI-RS resource group内的全部CSI-RS resource可以使用相同的TCI状态;若第一TCI状态与第一标识信息之间的对应关系,是CSI-RS resource ID与第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,则各个CSI-RS resource可以使用互不相同的TCI状态。
此外,CSI-RS可以是周期性的CSI-RS或非周期性的CSI-RS或半持续的CSI-RS。下面提供两种方式,来确定CSI-RS的目标TCI状态:
方式一:对非周期性的CSI-RS采用与其他时域行为的CSI-RS不同的方式来确定目标TCI状态:
对于非周期性的CSI-RS,其可以由第一DCI触发,此时,可以根据以下至少一项确定该非周期CSI-RS的目标TCI状态:
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述第一DCI用于调度PUSCH的情况下,所述目标指示域指示所述第一DCI调度的PUSCH的TCI状态,所述M个第一TCI状态包括与第二TCI状态对应相同码点的TCI状态和所述第二TCI状态,所述第二TCI状态包括所述第一DCI调度的PUSCH的TCI状态;
所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
所述终端确定目标信号的目标TCI状态包括与所述第二TCI状态对应相 同码点的TCI状态或所述第二TCI状态,其中,所述目标信号包括以下至少一项:
所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源集中的CSI-RS,其中,所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源集根据所述第一DCI触发的CSI-RS资源集标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源组中的CSI-RS,其中,所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源组根据所述第一DCI触发的CSI-RS资源组标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述第一DCI的目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源中的CSI-RS,其中,所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源根据所述第一DCI触发的CSI-RS资源标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述第一DCI的目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述第一DCI触发的全部CSI-RS资源集或或CSI-RS资源组或CSI-RS资源中的CSI-RS。
其中,第二TCI状态可以包括joint TCIstate和/或UL TCI state,由于CSI-RS需要使用DL TCI state,则上述与第二TCI状态对应相同码点的TCI状态可以包括Joint TCI状态或与separate UL TCI对应相同码点的separate DL TCI state。
例如:假设第一DCI中的第二field指示了在M1个joint TCI state中的用于PUSCH的TCI state,所指示的TCI state也用于确定CSI-RS的目标TCI state;或者,
假设第一DCI中的第二field指示了在M3个separate UL TCI state中的用于PUSCH的UL TCI state。此时,由于CSI-RS需要使用DL TCI state,则第二field指示了PUSCH的UL TCI state后,可以确定PUSCH的TCI state。然后,根据与该UL TCI state对应同一个codepoint的DL TCI state,用来确定CSI-RS的目标TCI state;或者,
根据来自网络侧设备的指示先从M个第一TCI状态中确定N个预设TCI 状态,然后从N个预设TCI状态中确定CSI-RS的目标TCI state。
需要说明的是,上述由调度PUSCH的第一DCI触发的CSI-RS的目标TCI状态的确定过程与上述由调度PDSCH的第一DCI触发的SRS的目标TCI状态的确定过程相似,不同之处在于,CSI-RS的标识信息可以包括CSI-RS资源组标识信息,即一个CSI-RS资源集可以包括至少一个CSI-RS资源组,一个CSI-RS资源组又可以包括至少一个CSI-RS资源,CSI-RS的目标TCI状态的确定过程可以参考如上实施例中SRS的目标TCI状态的确定过程,在此不再赘述。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述第一DCI用于调度PDSCH的情况下,所述目标指示域指示所述第一DCI调度的PDSCH的TCI状态,所述M个第一TCI状态包括所述第一DCI调度的PDSCH的TCI状态;
所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
所述终端确定目标信号的目标TCI状态包括所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态,所述目标信号包括以下至少一项:
所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源集中的CSI-RS,其中,所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源集根据所述第一DCI触发的CSI-RS资源集标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源组中的CSI-RS,其中,所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源组根据所述第一DCI触发的CSI-RS资源组标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述第一DCI的目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源中的CSI-RS,其中,所述终端需要发送的CSI-RS资源根据所述第一DCI触发的CSI-RS资源标识信息与所述第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以及所述第一DCI的目标指示域所指示的TCI状态确定;
所述第一DCI触发的全部CSI-RS资源集或或CSI-RS资源组或CSI-RS资源中的CSI-RS。
例如:第一DCI中的第二field指示了在M1/M2个TCI state中的用于PDSCH的TCI state(可以是一个或者多个),则第二field所指示的TCI state也用于确定也用于如下至少之一:
1e)根据CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource与M1/M2个TCI state或与其中N个预设TCI状态的对应关系,以及根据第二field指示的TCI state,确定需发送的CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource中的CSI-RS。
2e)确定被触发的所有CSI-RS resource set中的CSI-RS的目标TCI state,并发送这些CSI-RS。确定方式可以依据CSI-RS resource set或CSI-RS resource set中的CSI-RS resource group/resource与M1/M2个TCI state的对应关系,或CSI-RS resource set或CSI-RS resource set中的CSI-RS resource group/resource与N个预设TCI state的对应关系。
3e)触发的CSI-RS resource set的数量、或触发的CSI-RS resource set中CSI-RS resource group的数量、或触发的CSI-RS resource set中的CSI-RS resource的数量、或触发的CSI-RS resource set中的CSI-RS resource group的数量与不属于任意CSI-RS resource group的CSI-RS resource的数量之和,与第二field指示的TCI state相等,此时,第二field指示的TCI state与CSI-RS resource set或CSI-RS resource group或CSI-RS resource一一对应,或者,第二field指示的TCI state与CSI-RS resource group的CSI-RS resource以及不属于任意CSI-RS resource group的CSI-RS resource一一对应,从而使各个CSI-RS使用第二field指示的且各自对应的TCI state。
4e)CSI-RS resource set中CSI-RS resource的TCI state与第二field指示的TCI state对应相同。
例如:第二field指示PDSCH使用M1/M2个TCI state中的1个TCI state,触发的CSI-RS resource set中CSI-RS resource也使用这个TCI state,典型的,此时网络只配置了1个CSI-RS resource set。
再例如:网络指示PDSCH使用M1/M2个TCI state中的1个TCI state,网络预先配置或协议约定CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource与M1/M2个TCI state具有对应关系,则仅发送被触发的CSI-RS resource set中的且与第二field指示的1个TCI state所对应的CSI-RS resource set/resource  group/resource中的CSI-RS。
再例如:第二field指示PDSCH使用M1/M2个TCI state中的K个TCI state,触发了1个CSI-RS resource set,该CSI-RS resource set包括K1个CSI-RS resource group,或者包括K2个CSI-RS resource,或者包括K1个CSI-RS resource group以及K3个不属于任意K1个CSI-RS resource group的CSI-RS resource,则在K≥K1时,K个TCI state分别用作CSI-RS resource set中K1个CSI-RS resource group的TCI state;在K≥K2时,K个TCI state分别用作K2个CSI-RS resource的TCI state;在K≥K1+K3时K个TCI state分别用作K1个CSI-RS resource group中的CSI-RS resource和K3个CSI-RS resource的TCI state。
再例如:第二field指示PDSCH使用M1/M2个TCI state中的K>1个TCI state,触发了K个CSI-RS resource set,K个TCI state分别用作各CSI-RS resource set中CSI-RS resource的TCI state。
需要说明的是,上述由调度PDSCH的第一DCI触发的CSI-RS的目标TCI状态的确定过程可以参考上述由调度PUSCH的第一DCI触发的SRS的目标TCI状态的确定过程相似,在此不再赘述。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述目标信号包括CSI-RS,且所述CSI-RS的周期行为是非周期性的情况下,所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
若第一DCI用于触发K个CSI-RS资源集,所述第一DCI未调度PDSCH或PUSCH,且所述第一DCI的目标指示域指示K个第一TCI状态,则所述终端根据所述K个CSI-RS资源集与所述K个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,确定所述K个CSI-RS资源集中的每一个CSI-RS资源集的TCI状态,其中,所述目标TCI状态包括所述K个第一TCI状态,K为正整数;和/或,
若第一DCI用于触发K个CSI-RS资源集,所述第一DCI未调度PDSCH或PUSCH,且所述第一DCI的目标指示域指示X个第一TCI状态,则所述终端根据所述K个CSI-RS资源集与所述X个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,确定所述K个CSI-RS资源集中的每一个CSI-RS资源组的TCI状态,其中,所述目标TCI状态包括所述X个第一TCI状态,其中,X表示所述K个CSI-RS 资源集包括的CSI-RS资源组的总数,X为正整数;和/或,
若第一DCI用于触发K个CSI-RS资源集,所述第一DCI未调度PDSCH或PUSCH,且所述第一DCI的目标指示域指示H个第一TCI状态,则所述终端根据所述K个CSI-RS资源集与所述H个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,确定所述K个CSI-RS资源集中的每一个CSI-RS资源的TCI状态,其中,所述目标TCI状态包括所述H个第一TCI状态,其中,H表示所述K个CSI-RS资源集所包含的CSI-RS资源组中的CSI-RS资源的总数,H为正整数。
例如:第一DCI触发了非周期的CSI-RS,但未调度PUSCH或PDSCH,假设M个第一TCI状态包括M1=4个joint TCI state,或M个第一TCI状态包括M2=4个DL TCI state,则可以根据第一DCI的第二field的指示,在M1/M2个TCI state中确定用于各CSI-RS resource的目标TCI state:
仅触发了K=1个CSI-RS resource set(其中有K1个CSI-RS resource group包括共有K2个CSI-RS resource,此外还有K3个CSI-RS resource不属于任意CSI-RS resource group,K1>=0,K3>=0)时,第二field指示TCI state(从M1/M2个中指示,或者从M1/M2中的N个预设TCI状态中指示),分别用作K个CSI-RS resource set的TCI state(每个CSI-RS resource set中的CSI-RS resource对应一个TCI state),或者分别用作K1个CSI-RS resource group的TCI state(即每个CSI-RS resource group中的CSI-RS resource对应一个TCI state),或者分别用作K3个CSI-RS resource的TCI state,或者分别用作K1个CSI-RS resource group中的CSI-RS resource和K3个CSI-RS resource的TCI state。
其中,K1个CSI-RS resource group和/或K3个CSI-RS resource与TCI state之间的对应关系,可以通过网络信令指示;或对应关系无需网络信令指示,而是按照CSI-RS resource group ID和/或CSI-RS resource ID与TCI state的排序相对应,如最小CSI-RS resource group ID/resource ID对应排在最前面的TCI state,其中TCI state的排序是指DL TCI state的顺序。
需要说明的是,上述第一DCI未调度PUSCH/PDSCH,且该第一DCI触发的CSI-RS的目标TCI状态的确定过程与上述未调度PUSCH/PDSCH的第一DCI触发的SRS的目标TCI状态的确定过程相似,不同之处在于,CSI-RS 的标识信息可以包括CSI-RS资源组标识信息,即一个CSI-RS资源集可以包括至少一个CSI-RS资源组,一个CSI-RS资源组又可以包括至少一个CSI-RS资源,此时,一个CSI-RS资源集内的全部CSI-RS资源可以使用相同的TCI状态,或者,一个CSI-RS资源集内的不同CSI-RS资源组内的CSI-RS资源可以使用不同的TCI状态,或者,每一个不同的CSI-RS资源可以使用不同的TCI状态,在此不再赘述。
方式二:以下实施例中还提出了一种可以对任意时域行为(如周期、半持续、非周期)的CSI-RS,采用相同的方式来确定各个CSI-RS使用的TCI状态的实施方式:
1f)网络使用第二信令(如RRC信令或MAC CE命令或DCI信令),指示各CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource使用N个预设TCI state的一个或多个TCI state。其中,N个预设TCI state是根据网络指示或协议约定从M1/M2/M3个unified TCI state中确定的。
2f)根据网络指示的unified TCI state(joint or DL TCI state)与CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource的对应关系,确定CSI-RS的目标TCI state
例如:根据网络指示的unified TCI state(joint or DL TCI state)在其对应的codepoint中的先后排列顺序(或各unified TCI state对应的codepoint的排列顺序)与CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource id的从小到大排序,进行一一对应、一多对应、多一对应。其中,若一个CSI-RS resource set对应多个TCI state时,该CSI-RS resource set中的CSI-RS resource group/resource与该多个TCI state也有对应关系,可以是CSI-RS resource group ID/resource ID从小到大和该多个TCI state(或多个TCI state对应的codepoint)的排列顺序。
例如:一个CSI-RS resource set包括K个CSI-RS resource group或CSI-RS resource时,如果指示了m(m=M1/M2,且m≥1)个DL unified TCI state,则所述K个CSI-RS resource group或CSI-RS resource与DL unified TCI state的对应,包括以下之一:
K=m,按顺序一一对应或配置对应关系;
K>m,K个CSI-RS resource group或CSI-RS resource中的前m个与m个DL unified TCI state一一对应,或者网络配置指示m个CSI-RS resource  group或CSI-RS resource要使用的m个DL unified TCI。其他CSI-RS resource group或CSI-RS resource不传输.
K<m,K个CSI-RS resource group或CSI-RS resource与K个DL TCI state一一对应,这K个DL TCI state是根据网路侧设备的指示或协议约定确定的,或者默认是m个DL TCI state的前K个。
需要说明的是,对于场景一中,在M等于1的情况下,所述终端从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,的实施方式同样适用于CSI-RS。
例如:当网络指示了M1/M2/M3=1(即M=1)个unified TCI state的情况下,则可以根据以下方式确定CSI-RS及其目标TCI状态:
1g)更新CSI-RS当前所用TCI state中的预设TCI state,该预设TCI state可以是网络指示的且CSI-RS当前使用的TCI state中的某个TCI state,或者,通过协议约定或默认的方式将预设TCI state固定为CSI-RS当前所用TCI state中的某个TCI state(如:第一个TCI state),且未更新的TCI state保持不变,其中,CSI-RS与上述预设TCI state对应(如网络侧设备指示对应关系,或者协议约定对应关系);
2g)将切换至单波束或单TRP的传输模式:
2g-1)根据该TCI state确定所需传输的CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource。与该TCI state或TCI state所对应TRP相关联的CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource,使用该TCI state。其余CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource停止发送。或网络侧设备仅指示向终端发送的与该TCI state或TCI state所对应TRP相关联的CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource。此时,目标信道/目标信号包括与该TCI state对应的CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource,或者,目标信道/目标信号包括与TCI state所对应TRP相关联的CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource.
2g-2)所有CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource都使用该TCI state,即目标信道/目标信号包括所有CSI-RS resource set/resource group/resource。
本实施方式中,对于任意时域行为(如周期、半持续、非周期)的CSI-RS,都可以采用类似于SRS相同的方式来确定目标TCI状态。
场景三、根据指示的unified TCI state,确定PDCCH的目标TCI state。
作为一种可选的实施方式,在所述目标信道包括PDCCH的情况下,所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定目标信道和/或目标信号的目标TCI状态,包括:
所述终端根据目标信息,从所述M个第一TCI状态中确定所述PDCCH对应的预设CORESET或预设CORESET组或预设搜索空间集的目标TCI状态;
在所述预设CORESET或预设CORESET组或预设搜索空间集原有的TCI状态关联第二标识,且所述预设CORESET或预设CORESET组或预设搜索空间集的目标TCI状态关联第三标识,所述第二标识和所述第三标识用于标识目标资源的情况下,所述方法还包括:
所述终端将所述预设CORESET或预设CORESET组或预设搜索空间集切换为与所述第三标识关联;或者,
所述终端将所述预设CORESET或预设CORESET组或预设搜索空间集切换为通过所述第三标识关联的目标资源传输;或者,
所述终端由所述第二标识关联的目标资源切换至所述第三标识关联的目标资源。
可选地,所述目标资源包括以下至少一项:
小区标识、物理小区标识(Physical Cell Identifier,PCI)、带宽部分(Bandwidth Part,BWP)标识、发送接收点TRP标识、公共TCI状态池标识、公共TCI状态类型值、CORESET组标识、CORESET标识、信道组标识、CORESET池标识、搜索空间集标识、搜索空间ID、同步信号块SSB ID,SSB组ID。
在一种可能的实现方式中,可以根据网络指示或协议约定从M1/M2个TCI state中选择N个预设TCI state,再根据网络指示或协议约定从N个预设TCI state中确定CORESET或CORESET group或搜索空间集(search space set)的目标TCI state。这样,根据CORESET/CORESET组/搜索空间集与TCI state之间的对应关系,可以确定各个CORESET或各个CORESET组或各个预设搜索空间集中的PDCCH使用的TCI状态。
例如:在CJT场景中,网络指示了4个unified TCI state(joint unified TCI state or DL unified TCI state),并从中确定前2个为预设TCI state,此时,网络侧设备可以指示这2个TCI state中的某一个或两个,作为CORESET的TCI state;或者指示这两个TCI state分别对应两个CORESET组。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,对于配置为多波束同时传输模式(如SFN)的CORESET或CORESET group或search space set(共需P个TCI state,P为正整数),当M1/M2大于P时,总是使用P个预设TCI state(如前P个),作为目标TCI state。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,当预设CORESET或CORESET group或search space set的目标TCI state关联的第三标识,与该预设CORESET或CORESET group或search space set的原TCI state关联的第二标识不同时,则可以执行以下调整:
1h)将预设CORESET或CORESET group或search space set切换为与第三标识关联;
2h)将预设CORESET或CORESET group或search space set切换至通过第三标识关联的小区或TRP传输;
3h)执行小区或TRP切换,例如:第二标识对应的波束位于第一PCI,第三标识对应的波束位于第二PCI,则将本小区(或服务小区)切换为所述第二PCI。
例如:假设某一CORESET原有TCI state1,网络指示了其更新为TCI state2,且TCI state1关联了PCI1,TCI state2关联了PCI2,则可以:将CORESET由当前配置在PCI1更新为配置在PCI2,或者,将CORESET上的PDCCH从PCI1切换至PCI2或者,将CORESET上的PDCCH从PCI1对应的TRP1切换至PCI2对应的TRP2发送,或者执行从PCI1到PCI2的小区切换。
场景四、根据指示的unified TCI state,确定PDSCH的目标TCI state。
在所述目标信道包括所述第一DCI调度的PDSCH的情况下,所述第一DCI的目标指示域(如第三field)指示用于所述PDSCH的第一TCI状态和/或,所述第一DCI的目标指示域指示所述PDSCH的至少两个标识信息与至少两个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系。
其中,上述第一DCI的目标指示域(即第三field)指示的第一TCI状态可以是M个第一TCI状态中的任意TCI状态。例如:对于PDSCH,第一DCI中的第三field,可以指示在M1/M2个TCI state中的用于PDSCH的TCI state。如:网络指示了共4个第一TCI状态,第三field指示了其中第一个第一TCI状态用于PDSCH,或者,网络指示了共4个第一TCI状态,第三field指示了其中第一个和第三个第一TCI状态用于PDSCH。
当然,在实施中,还可以先从M个第一TCI状态中确定N个预设TCI状态,然后利用上述第一DCI的目标指示域指示N个预设TCI状态中的任意TCI状态。例如:根据网络指示或协议约定从M1/M2个TCI state中选择N个预设TCI state,然后,利用第一DCI中的第三field指示了在N个预设TCI state中的用于PDSCH的目标TCI state。
此外,第三field在指示用于PDSCH的至少两个第一TCI状态的同时,还可以指示PDSCH的至少两个标识信息与至少两个第一TCI状态之间的对应关系,以明确PDSCH的各个标识信息与第一TCI状态之间的对应关系。
例如:第一DCI中的第三field还能指示用于PDSCH的TCI state的顺序。其中,该顺序可用于确定PDSCH的多个DMRS组、DMRS端口、频域资源、多个layer的TCI state。
