背景技术
在无线通信系统中,按照使用频段的不同,可以分为授权频段和非授权频段。在非授权频段中,发射节点需要按照竞争的方式接入信号。
目前的竞争接入机制中,一般采用基于能量的检测和信号类型的检测。基于能量的检测中,需要设定一个检测门限(energy detection threshold),当检测的能量超过检测门限时,判决为信道忙,则不允许发射节点接入信道。当检测的能量低于检测门限时,如果持续超过一段时间,则允许发射节点接入信道。
在目前的新空口(new radio,NR)侧行链路(sidelink,SL)系统中,物理层侧行链路反馈信道(physical sidelink feedback channel,PSFCH)信息可用于承载混合式自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)反馈信息。

本申请实施例中,终端设备还可以包括中继(relay)。或者理解为,能够与基站进行数据通信的都可以看作终端设备。
可选的,还可将路侧单元(road side unit,RSU)视为终端装置。
下文中,可通过终端装置为例对于本申请实施例提供的通信方法进行说明。比如,侧行通信中进行侧行数据发送的一方(如发射节点)可称为发送端终端装置,用于侧行数据接收的一方(如接收射节点)可称为接收端终端装置。本申请中为方便说明,后续将接收侧行链路信息的终端装置(即侧行链路信息的接收节点)称为第一通信装置,将发送侧行链路信息的终端装置(即侧行链路信息的发送节点)称为第二终端装置,或者说,第一通信装置为侧行反馈信息的发送节点,第二通信装置为该侧行反馈信息的接收节点,其中,侧行反馈信息可用于指示第一终端装置对于侧行链路信息的接收情况(包括正确接收,或错误接收)。侧行反馈信息可以用于对数据信息的(包括混合自动重传请求(hybrid automatic repeat request,HARQ)应答反馈信息,例如确认应答(acknowledge,ACK)或否定应答(negative acknowledge,NACK),还可以包括信道状态指示(channel state information,CSI)反馈信息)、还可以用于指示如下至少一种信息,例如,节能信息、资源辅助信息(包括推荐使用的资源,不推荐使用的资源,资源碰撞、资源预约冲突、过去发生了或未来即将发生半双工冲突等)。
其中,在本申请中,侧行链路信息可包括侧行发现信息(该侧行发现信息可以承载于侧行发现信道(physical sidelink discovery channel,PSDCH)和/或物理层侧行链路共享信道(physical sidelink shared channel,PSSCH)中)、侧行控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI)(该SCI落承载于侧行控制信道(physical sidelink control channel,PSCCH)中和/或PSSCH中)、侧行数据信息(或称为数据、侧行数据等)(该侧行数据信息承载于PSSCH中)、侧行反馈信息(承载于PSFCH中)、侧行同步信息(承载于侧行同步块(sidelink-synchronization signal block,S-SSB)中或者侧行导频信息(reference signaling)(包括解调参考符号(de-modulation reference signal,DMRS)、信道状态信息参考符号(channel state information reference signal,CSI-RS)、相位追踪参考信号(phase-tracking reference signal,PTRS)、定位参考符号(position reference signal,PRS)或发现信道(discovery reference signal,DRS)等)等至少一种信息。

因为本申请实施例主要涉及接入网设备,因此在下文中,如无特殊说明,则所述的网络设备均是指接入网设备。下文中,可通过基站来代表网络设备和/或接入网设备。

(3)侧行通信,在本申请中是指终端装置与终端装置之间通过侧行链路进行的通信。
下面以V2X通信为例对侧行通信进行说明。
V2X通信针对以车辆为代表的高速设备,是未来对通信时延要求非常高的场景下应用的基础技术和关键技术。V2X通信的应用领域包括智能汽车、自动驾驶和智能交通运输系统等。如图1所示,较为典型的V2X通信场景包括车与车的通信(vehicle to vehicle,V2V)、车与行人的通信(vehicle to pedestrian,V2P)、车与基础设施的通信(vehicle to infrastructure,V2I)或车与网络的通信(vehicle to network,V2N)。其中,对于V2V通信,第一终端装置和/或第二终端装置可以是车辆或位于车载中的车载终端装置等。例如,对于V2P通信,第一终端装置和第二终端装置中,一方可以是车辆或位于车载中的车载终端装置等,另一方可以是移动终端、可穿戴设备等由行人随身携带的终端装置。对于V2P通信,第一终端装置和第二终端装置中,一方可以是车辆或位于车载中的车载终端装置等,另一方可以是RSU等基础设施。对于V2N通信,第一终端装置和第二终端装置中,一方可以是车辆或位于车载中的车载终端装置等,另一方可以是基站。
以第二终端装置为侧行链路信息的发送节点为例,基于V2X通信,第二终端装置可将自身的位置、速度等状态信息,或转弯、并线或倒车等行驶意图信息,或由周期性或非周期性的事件触发的信息,作为侧行数据向周围的终端装置发送。同样地,该第二终端装置也可以接收来自于周围的其他终端装置的侧行数据。此外,该第二终端装置还可转发其接收到的其他终端装置的侧行数据。示例性的,侧行数据和/或侧行反馈信息承载于PSSCH。
V2X通信可以支持有网络覆盖和无网络覆盖的通信场景。在如图2中编号a和b所示的第一终端装置有网络覆盖的场景下,第一终端装置通过V2X通信进行发送时的资源分配方式可以采取网络设备调度模式。例如,通过网络设备调度发送的终端装置进行侧行链路通信所采用的资源,该资源可称为授权资源或授权频段。在图2中编号c所示的第一终端装置无网络覆盖场景下,或虽然有网络覆盖但第一终端装置未采用网络设备调度模式的情况下,可由第一终端装置进行资源的自选,即从资源池中选择用于侧行链路通信的资源,该资源可称为非授权资源或非授权频段。应理解,本申请中的资源可替换为时频资源,和/或时频码资源。本申请中,时频资源包括时域资源和/或频域资源。时频码资源包括时域资源、频域资源和码域资源中的至少一个。
在网络覆盖范围下,终端装置可通过接收网络设备的系统消息块(system information block,SIB)、小区级(cell-specific)的无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令或者终端装置用户级(UE-specific)RRC信令获得SL资源池(resource pool)配置信息和/或SL带宽部分(bandwidth part,BWP)配置信息。终端装置也可以使用预配置的SL资源池配置信息或SL BWP配置信息,例如,在没有网络覆盖范围时。SL资源池配置信息 包括资源池资源信息,资源池资源信息用于指示SL资源池。资源池是时频资源的集合用于UE之间进行侧行通信。资源池可以包括码域资源。资源池的资源用于包括终端装置发送和接收以下至少一种物理信道的资源,如PSCCH、PSSCH、PSDCH、PSFCH,或PSBCH等,PSSCH所承载的业务类型可以包括单播、组播和/或广播通信类型。在SL资源池的时域上,包括一个或多个时间单元,时间单元可以为一个或若干个符号、一个或若干个时隙(slot),一个或若干个微时隙(mini-slot)、一个或若干个子帧,或,一个或若干个帧等。一个或多个时间单元可以是在时间上连续的,也可以是离散的。应理解,在一个资源池内时域单元是逻辑上连续的。
如图3A所示,时隙1至时隙8是时间上连续的时隙,称这种时隙为物理时隙(physical slot)。将物理时隙——时隙1,时隙3,时隙5和时隙8配置为属于一个资源池的时隙。因资源池所包含的时隙在时间上可以是不连续的,那么从该资源池的角度而言,物理时隙上的时隙1,时隙3,时隙5和时隙8对应为资源池中的时隙1’、时隙2’、时隙3’和时隙4’,那么。该资源池中包含的连续的时隙(即时隙1’、时隙2’、时隙3’和时隙4’)为从资源池的逻辑上讲是连续的时隙,称这种逻辑上连续但时间上不一定连续的时隙为逻辑时隙(logical slot)。在SL资源池的频域上,包括一个或多个频域单元,频域单元可以是一个资源元素(resource element,RE),若干个RE,一个资源块(resource block,RB)、若干个RB、一个子信道(sub channel)、若干个子信道。子信道的大小,即表示一个子信道包括一个或多个在频域上连续的(continuous)或交错的(interlaced)RB数量,可以是10、12、15、20、25或50等整数。
交错的RB是离散的RB的其中一种形式。例如,一个信道或一个BWP或一个资源池或一个资源池中的子信道所包含的多个RB是交错的,指该子信道所包含的任意相邻的两个RB之间至少间隔一个不属于该子信道的RB。具体地,定义交错资源(interlace)为:一个信道或一个BWP或一个资源池或一个资源池中的子信道可以包括M个交错资源,其中第m个交错资源(m∈{0,1,…,M-1})包括的交错的RB的序号为{m,M+m,2M+m,3M+m,…}。一般情况,一个交错资源包括至少10个交错的RB。一个交错资源包括的交错的RB的个数也可以少于10个,这里不做限定。M的取值和子载波间隔(sub carrier spacing,SCS)有关,例如图3B所示,当使用15千赫兹(kHz)SCS时,M的取值可以为10,当使用30kHz SCS时,M的取值可以为5。
SL资源池配置信息还可以包括PSCCH的配置信息,PSCCH的配置信息包括一个时隙中PSCCH所占用的符号的数量和一个子信道中PSCCH所占用的RB个数。SL BWP配置信息可以包括SL资源池信息,用于配置BWP内包括的资源池的个数。SL BWP配置信息可以包括SL带宽信息,用于指示进行SL通信的带宽大小,例如指示SL带宽为20兆赫兹(MHz)。
SL BWP配置信息还可以包括SL的符号信息,用于指示一个时隙上起始的SL符号位置和所占用的连续的SL符号的个数。SL BWP配置信息还可以包括SL的子载波间隔和循环前缀信息,用于指示SL通信所使用的子载波间隔和循环前缀。循环前缀指示扩展循环前缀或正常循环前缀。在一种可能的配置中,SL BWP配置信息还可以包括SL资源池配置信息。本申请中,除非特殊说明时间单元的含义,均用时隙进行描述,但不限于时间单位只为时隙;除非特殊说明时频域单元的含义,均用子信道进行描述,但不限于频域单位只为子信道。
在非授权频段中,发射端终端装置按照竞争的方式接入信号,例如,按照欧洲电信标准化组织(european telecommunications standards institute,ETSI)定义的信道接入方式。竞争的接入方式主要包括基于负载的设备(load based equipment,LBE)和基于框架的设备(frame based equipment,FBE)。
对于非授权频段的接入,LBE和FBE均需要终端装置进行先听后说(listen before talk,LBT)。举例来说,在接入非授权频段时可采用基于能量的检测。基于能量的检测需要设定一个检测门限(energy detection threshold),当终端装置检测到的信道能量超过检测门限时,判决为信道忙,则不允许接入信道。当检测的信道能量低于检测门限时,如果持续超过一段时间,如34微秒(μs),则允许开始退避,退避窗的大小和业务优先级相关,优先级越高,退避窗越小。终端装置在退避窗中随机选择一个退避数值K进行退避。检测的能量低于检测门限的时长每持续9μs,则K值减1,直至退避数值K减至0,此时完成LBT过程,则允许接入信道进行通信,退避数值K减至0的时刻即终端装置接入信道的时刻。在退避数值K减至0的过程中,如果终端装置检测的能量高于检测门限时,则信道为繁忙,停止退避,此时LBT过程未完成。直到再次持续34μs检测的能量低于检测门限时,恢复退避,即按照上一次停止退避时的退避数值恢复退避。
在本申请中,侧行通信资源(或简称为资源)指在用于侧行通信的资源池中的时频资源,发送终端装置可以在该资源上发送侧行链路信息。其中,在一个资源上可以承载PSCCH、PSSCH、物理侧行链路反馈信道(physical sidelink feedback channel,PSFCH)和解调参考信号(demodulation reference signal,DMRS)等参考信号中的一种或多种。侧行资源的时域调度单位可以为一个时隙,也可以为一个微时隙,频域调度单位可以为信道或子信道(sub channel)或一个交错资源,也可以为连续的(continuous)或交错的一个或多个RB。
如图4所示,PSCCH可能在每个时隙上的每个子信道中存在,例如,一个PSCCH的时域起始位置为每个时隙上的用于侧行链路通信的第二个符号的起始时刻。本申请中,符号可以是正交频分复用(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,OFDM)符号(symbol)。PSCCH占用的连续的符号个数可由资源池配置信息或SL BWP配置信息确定,例如为1或2或3个符号等其他不超过14个符号的符号数量。PSCCH的频域起始位置为每个子信道中索引(index)最小的物理资源模块(physical resource block,PRB),PSCCH占用的RB的数量可由SL资源池配置信息或SL BWP配置信息确定,例如为不超过一个信道或一个子信道的大小的RB数量。另外如图4所示,可选的,每个时隙还可包括用于承载自动增益控制(automatic gain control,AGC)信息的符号,例如,用于承载AGC信息的符号为每个时隙中的第一个符号。
如前述,在NR sidelink系统中,PSFCH用于承载HARQ反馈信息,即承载ACK或NACK反馈信息。数据的接收端UE根据所接收的数据是否正确译码向数据的发送端UE进行反馈。下面结合图5介绍目前的NR发布版本(release)16和17的PSFCH的时频资源确定方式。
以第一终端装置接收第二终端的数据信息,第一终端装置向第二终端发送反馈信息用于应答接收的该数据信息为例,第一终端装置确定发送侧行反馈信息的资源,即PSFCH资源,由以下几个参数共同决定:
1)资源池的资源配置信息,包括资源池中包含的子信道的个数的配置信息,一个子信道中包含的RB的个数的配置信息。
2)接收的第二终端的数据信息所被分配的时隙和所分配的子信道,即该数据信息传输所使用的时域资源和频域资源。
3)资源池中PSFCH资源的时域周期(period),即每几个时隙存在一个PSFCH资源。例如,图5中的PSFCH Period N=2(N还可以等于0、1或4),表示每2个时隙存在一个PSFCH资源。PSFCH资源可位于一个SL时隙的倒数第二个符号和倒数第三个符号,其中倒数第二个符号可以用于PSFCH的接收端进行AGC训练。
4)资源池中PSFCH资源的频域资源,即在该资源中的哪些RB可以用于PSFCH传输,PSFCH传输包括但不限于HARQ应答反馈(即ACK或NACK的反馈)。
5)资源池中PSFCH资源的码域资源,即一个RB上可以复用多少个不同PSFCH序列,具体地,体现在生成PSFCH序列的循环移位(cyclic shift,CS)值上。其中,可以2个不同的CS值为一对(pair),一对CS分别为ACK序列和NACK序列。PSFCH序列可以为ZC序列。
6)PSFCH和PSSCH的时域间隔(gap),图5中的PSFCH gap k=2(k还可以等于3),为用于第一终端装置处理PSSCH译码和确定PSFCH所承载的内容所需要的时延。
具体的,在资源池中,接收PSSCH的时频资源和对应的PSFCH资源之间的映射关系根据以下方式确定:针对一个PSFCH时域周期,所有满足PSFCH gap且可以映射在该PSFCH时域周期中的PSFCH资源(PSFCH资源是指,PSFCH时隙与PSSCH时隙的间隔不小于PSFCH gap k个时隙的第一个存在PSFCH资源的时隙)的PSSCH时频资源,进行先时域(如时隙按照索引由小到大的顺序排序)后频域(如子信道按照由小到大的顺序排序)的PSSCH资源排序。该PSFCH时域周期中的PSFCH所在的时隙上进行先频域后码域的PSFCH资源排序。将排序后的PSSCH资源和排序后的PSFCH资源进行映射,即任何一个PSSCH时频资源都对应唯一的PSFCH时频码资源。例如图5所示,PSSCH1和PSSCH2分别对应的PSFCH资源的位置在图5中通过箭头指示,PSSCH1和PSSCH2分别对应的PSFCH资源在频域上仅占用一个RB。
根据国家和地区对于使用非授权频段的法规要求,占用信道带宽(occupied channel bandwidth,OCB)应在标称信道带宽的80%到100%之间,该要求称为OCB要求,其中标称信道带宽(nominal channel bandwidth)是分配给单个信道的最宽频率频带,包括保护频带。占用信道带宽是包含信号功率99%的带宽。在5吉赫兹(GHz)频段,单个工作信道的标称信道带宽应为20兆赫兹(MHz)。如果是具有多个发射链的设备智能天线系统,则通信系统的每个发射链都应满足OCB要求。在毫米波频段,例如60GHz频段,OCB要求可能会要求是标称信道带宽的75%或以上。占用的信道带宽可能会随着时间和/或有效负载而变化。
数据的接收节点根据所接收的数据是否正确译码向数据的发送节点进行反馈,其中,数据承载于物理层侧行链路共享信道(physical sidelink shared channel,PSSCH)。而在非授权频段重用目前的NR发布版本(release)16和17的PSFCH的时频资源确定方法不能满足OCB要求,进而无法占用非授权频段进行发送。
基于图5可知,目前PSFCH资源的确定方式不能满足非授权频段的接入机制中的OCB需求,导致第一终端装置在非授权频段不能根据该PSFCH资源进行PSFCH的发送,因此目前的PSFCH发送方式不适用于非授权频段。
本申请实施例提供一种通信方法,用以提供能够适用于非授权频段的PSFCH发送方 式。该通信方法可由第一通信装置和/或第二通信装置实施。
下面结合图6和图7,对本申请实施例提供的第一终端装置和/或第二终端装置可能的结构进行介绍。
示例性的,图6示出了一种可能的第一终端装置和/或第二终端装置的结构示意图,该结构可包括处理模块610和收发模块620。示例性地,图6所示结构可以是终端设备,也可以是应用于终端设备中的芯片或者其他具有本申请所示终端设备功能的组合器件、部件或组件等。当该结构是终端设备时,收发模块620可以是收发器,收发器可以包括天线和射频电路等,处理模块610可以是处理器,例如基带处理器,基带处理器中可以包括一个或多个中央处理单元(central processing unit,CPU)。当该结构是具有本申请所示终端设备功能的部件时,收发模块620可以是射频单元,处理模块610可以是处理器,例如基带处理器。当该结构是芯片系统时,收发模块620可以是芯片,例如基带芯片,的输入输出接口,处理模块610可以是芯片系统的处理器,可以包括一个或多个中央处理单元。应理解,本申请实施例中的处理模块610可以由处理器或处理器相关电路组件实现,收发模块620可以由收发器或收发器相关电路组件实现。

当需要发送数据时,处理器对待发送的数据进行基带处理后,输出基带信号至射频电路,射频电路将基带信号进行射频处理后将射频信号通过天线以电磁波的形式向外发送。当有数据发送到终端装置时,射频电路通过天线接收到射频信号,将射频信号转换为基带信号,并将基带信号输出至处理器,处理器将基带信号转换为数据并对该数据进行处理。 为便于说明,图7中仅示出了一个存储器和处理器。在实际的终端设备产品中,可以存在一个或多个处理器和一个或多个存储器。存储器也可以称为存储介质或者存储设备等。存储器可以是独立于处理器设置,也可以是与处理器集成在一起,本申请实施例对此不做限制。

示例性的,第二终端装置可以在接入第一信道后通过PSSCH发送侧行控制信息,该侧行控制信息可用于调度第一数据。当第一终端装置检测到来自于第二终端装置的侧行控制信息后,根据侧行控制信息接收该第一数据。
示例性的,在第二通信装置采用图6所示结构时,S101可通过收发模块620执行。在第二通信装置采用图7所示结构时,S101可通过收发单元710执行。
S102:第一终端装置确定在信道占用时间内的反馈时间单元,该反馈时间单元对应于第一数据。本申请中,反馈时间单元对应第一数据是指,反馈时间单元中可包括用于承载第一数据所对应的反馈信息的反馈资源,或者说,反馈时间单元中的部分或全部资源可用于发送第一数据对应的反馈信息,已实现针对第一数据的HARQ应答反馈。本申请中,反馈资源是指可用于终端装置发送反馈信息的时频资源。
应理解,这里的信道占用时间可由第二终端装置确定。具体的,信道占用时间可以是第二终端装置确定的最大信道占用时间(maximum channel occupancy time,MCOT),MCOT为第二终端装置最大能够占用第一信道的时间。或者,信道占用时间为第二终端装置实际占用第一信道的时间,称为信道使用时间(channel occupancy time,COT),此时信道占用时间可以小于或等于该最大占用时间。
可选的,可由第二终端装置向第一终端装置发送信道占用时间的指示信息,由第一终端装置根据该指示信息确定信道占用时间。
例如,第二终端装置在接入第一信道后,根据MCOT确定小于MCOT的一个值作为COT,并通过侧行控制信息或媒体访问控制(media access control,MAC)控制元素(control elment,CE)或PC5RRC信令向第一终端装置指示该COT,包括指示COT的起始位置(例如,COT起始所在的时隙或符号)和/或COT的时长(单位可以是ms或时隙或符号),则第一终端装置将COT作为信道占用时间。或者,第二终端装置在接入信道后,通过侧行控制信息或MAC控制元素或侧行RRC信息向第一终端装置指示MCOT,则第一终端装置将MCOT作为信道占用时间。
S102也可替换为:第一终端装置确定在MCOT内的反馈时间单元,或者,第一终端装置确定在COT内的反馈时间单元。
可选的,MCOT取决于信道接入等级(channel access priority class),信道接入等级由终端装置根据待传输数据的业务类型或业务服务质量等级确定。信道接入等级与MCOT之间的对应关系例如表1所示。
信道接入等级 MCOT
1 2毫秒(ms)
2 4ms
3 6ms或10ms
4 6ms或10ms
表1
此后,第一终端装置可根据信道占用时间和子载波间隔信息确定信道占用时间内包含的时隙个数。例如,时隙个数可满足:
N slot=T×2 μ
其中,N slot为时隙个数,T为信道占用时间,T=MCOT,或者T=COT,μ为子载波间隔信息。也就是说,该信道占用时间内的时间可表示为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000001
可选的,子载波间隔信息与子载波间隔Δf之间的对应关系如表2所示。
μ Δf=2 μ·15[千赫兹(Khz)]
0 15
1 30
2 60
3 120
4 240
5 480
6 960
表2
可选的,第一终端装置可从信道占用时间内的时间单元集合中,确定该反馈时间单元。其中,该时间单元集合可包括至少一个时间单元,时间单元集合中的时间单元包含反馈资源。反馈时间单元可属于SL资源池。
应理解,本申请中以1个时间单元为1个时隙为例进行说明,在实际应用中也可将时间单元定义为n个时隙,n大于0。
下面结合附图对于时间单元集合的确定方式进行说明。
方式1
如图9所示,可定义一个COT或MCOT内的时间单元集合的起始时隙为信道占用时间中的第PSFCH 1个时隙,则该时隙可记作
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000002
该第PSFCH 1个时隙与信道占用时间的起始位置之间的时域间隔为X 1(或记为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000003
)个时隙。这里的时域间隔是指,第PSFCH 1个时隙与信道占用时间的起始位置之间的时隙数量。
可选的,该方式中,一个COT或MCOT内的PSFCH 1所在的位置可以是预定义的,预定义包括在通信标准协议或通信规范中定义的,不需要通过信令或配置或计算而获得的,例如,X 1的值为0、1、2、3、4、5或者6等不超过COT时长所对应的时隙总数的正整数。可选的,X 1可以是预配的,或者X 1是网络设备通过下行控制信息(downlink control information,DCI)或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置的,或者X 1是由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置的。
另外,该方式中,时间单元集合中每两个相邻的时间单元之间的时域间隔为M 1个时隙。如图9所示。M 1的取值可以是预定义的,例如为1、2、3或4等,或者M 1是预配值,或者M 1是由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置,或者,M 1可以是由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置的。时间单元集合中相邻的时间单元,是指时间单元集合中的逻辑上相邻的两个时间单元,这两个时间单元不一定在物理上相邻,比如图9所示,时间单元集合中相邻的两个时间单元之间包含M 1个不包括反馈资源的时隙,M 1即两个相邻的时间单元之间的时域间隔。
由此第一终端装置可确定该信道占用时间中,则除第PSFCH 1个时隙以外,时间单元集合中的其他时隙的编号为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000004
其中,
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000005
另外,也可以定义时间单元集合包括的最后一个时隙为信道占用时间中的第PSFCH 2个时隙。该第PSFCH 2个时隙与信道占用时间的结束位置之间的时域间隔为X2(或记为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000006
)个时隙。
其中,PSFCH 2所在的位置可以是预定义的,例如,X 2的值为N slot、N slot-1、N slot-2、N slot-3、或N slot-4等,或者X 2是预配值,或者X 2由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置,或者X 2由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置。
由此第一终端装置可确定该信道占用时间中,则除第PSFCH 2个时隙以外,时间单元集合中的其他时隙的编号为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000007
其中,
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000008
方式2
时间单元集合所包括的时间单元可以由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置,或由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置。
例如,第一终端装置可接收来自于网络设备或第二终端装置的第一指示信息,该第一指示信息可用于指示时间单元集合所包括的时间单元。
具体来说,第一指示信息可包括比特位图(bitmap)以时间单元是时隙为例,可定义该信道占用时间内的PSFCH资源样图(pattern),并通过比特位图表示该图样。
示例性的,比特位图可表示为即
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000009
L bitmap为该比特位图的长度。L bitmap的值可以是预定义的,或是预配值,或是由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置,或是由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置。
可选的,一种情况下,L bitmap=N slot如图10所示,也就是说,比特位图中的每一位取值指示信道占用时间内一个时隙是否为时间单元集合包括的时间单元。
或者,L bitmap为其他整数值,比如,满足N slotmod L bitmap=0,也就是说,N slot为L bitmap的整数倍,则当b k′=1时,编号为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000010
的时隙属于时间单元集合,其中,b k′为比特位图中第k′个比特位的取值,k′=k mod L bitmap。如图11所示,一个位图,大小为L bitmap=4,其中b 3=1,b 0=b 1=b 2=0(即“0001”的位图),N slot mod 4=0,那么,编号为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000011
……和
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000012
的时隙属于时间单元集合。
方式3
第一终端装置可通过预定义或是预配置时间单元集合所包括的时间单元的方式确定时间单元集合。
例如,预定义时间单元集合中的时间单元为信道占用时间中的最后一个时隙,或者其他时隙。如果时间单元集合中的时间单元为信道占用时间中的最后一个时隙,则此时反馈时间单元为该时隙。
方式4
第一终端装置可根据信道占用时间的长度确定时间单元集合。
例如,信道占用时间小于或等于时间阈值的情况下,默认时间单元集合中的时间单元 为信道占用时间中的最后一个时隙,或者其他时隙。如果时间单元集合中的时间单元为信道占用时间中的最后一个时隙,则此时反馈时间单元为该时隙。
其中,该阈值可以是时间长度,如X ms,或者该阈值可以是X’个时隙的长度。可选的,X和/或X’的取值可以是预定义的,或是预配值,或由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置,或由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置。
可选的,又例如,当信道占用时间大于时间阈值的情况下,默认时间单元集合中的时间单元包括信道占用时间中的最后一个时隙和正中间的一个奇数或偶数时隙。
应理解,以上方式1至方式4只是示例性的说明,不应理解为确定时间单元集合的全部实现方式。比如,在实际应用中,以上方式1至方式4也可以相互结合实施,例如,在方式4中,信道占用时间小于时间阈值的情况下,默认时间单元集合中的时间单元为信道占用时间中的最后一个时隙,而在信道占用时间大于或等于时间阈值的情况下,可按照方式1至方式3或方式4中的任意一种方式确定时间单元集合中的时间单元。
可选的,第一终端装置在确定时间单元集合中的时间单元后,可根据承载第一数据的时频资源确定反馈时间单元。例如,在确定时间单元集合中包括多个时间单元后,确定满足PSFCH和PSSCH之间的时域间隔要求的时间单元作为反馈时间单元,具体方式可参照本申请中关于图5的说明,这里不再赘述。其中,该时域间隔的单位可以是时隙,例如,时域间隔为1、2或3个时隙。时域间隔的值可以是预定义的,或是预配值,或是由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置的,或者是由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置的。
应理解,以上反馈时间单元和/或时间单元集合还可由SL BWP配置信息和/或SL资源池配置信息周期性的配置。
示例性的,在第一通信装置采用图6所示结构时,S102可由处理模块610执行。在第一通信装置采用图7所示结构时,S102可由处理单元720执行。
与S102同理,第二终端装置可确定在信道占用时间内的反馈时间单元。其中,该反馈时间单元对应于第一数据。或者说,第二终端装置确定在MCOT内的反馈时间单元,或者,第二终端装置确定在COT内的反馈时间单元。
应理解,本申请不限制第二终端装置确定在信道占用时间内的反馈时间单元的执行时序与S102的执行时序。比如,第二终端装置可以在发送第一数据后执行该反馈时间单元的确定动作,而第一终端装置在接收到第一数据后执行S102,除此之外这两个动作的执行顺序上没有必然的联系。示例性的,第二终端装置在接收第一反馈信息和/或第二反馈信息之前确定对应于第一数据的反馈时间单元,以便于正确接收反馈信息。
其中,信道占用时间为第二终端装置确定的最大信道占用时间,或小于第二终端装置确定的最大信道占用时间。可选的,信道占用时间可由第二终端装置确定,具体可参照S102中的说明。本申请中,可由第二终端装置向第一终端装置发送信道占用时间的指示信息,以指示第二终端装置所确定的信道占用时间。
可选的,第一终端装置可从信道占用时间内的时间单元集合中,确定该反馈时间单元。其中,时间单元集合的确定方式可参照S102中时间单元集合的确定方式。
例如,对应于S102中确定时间单元集合的方式1,对于第二终端装置来说,X 1、X 2和M 1中的至少一个可以是预配的,或者X 1是网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或 MIB信息指示或配置给第二终端装置的,或者,X 1、X 2和M 1中的至少一个可以是由第二终端装置确定并通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置的。X 1、X 2和M 1的含义可参照S102中方式1的说明。
又如,对应于S102中确定时间单元集合的方式2,时间单元集合所包括的时间单元可以是由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第二终端装置,或由第二终端装置确定并通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示或配置给第一终端装置的。比如,第二终端装置可接收来自于网络设备的第二指示信息,根据第二指示信息从信道占用时间包括的时间单元中确定反馈时间单元。第二指示信息例如是比特位图,通过比特位图指示时间单元集合的方式可参照方式2中的说明。
再如,对应于S102中确定时间单元集合的方式3,第二通信装置可通过预定义或是预配置时间单元集合所包括的时间单元的方式确定时间单元集合。
再如,对应于S102中确定时间单元集合的方式4,第二通信装置可根据信道占用时间的长度确定时间单元集合,比如在信道占用时间小于或等于时间阈值的情况下,第二终端装置默认时间单元集合中的时间单元为信道占用时间中的最后一个时隙。
可选的,第二终端装置在确定时间单元集合中的时间单元后,可根据承载第一数据的时频资源确定反馈时间单元,比如,第二终端装置可确定满足PSFCH和PSSCH之间的时域间隔要求的时间单元作为反馈时间单元。
第二终端装置确定反馈时间单元的方式可参照S102中第一终端装置确定时间单元集合,向第一终端装置发送第一指示信息,该第一指示信息可用于指示时间单元集合所包括的时间单元。
应理解,第二终端装置还可根据SL BWP配置信息和/或SL资源池配置信息获得周期性配置的反馈时间单元和/或时间单元集合。
可选的,第二终端装置所确定的确定反馈时间单元与S102中第一终端装置确定的反馈时间单元相同。
示例性的,在第二通信装置采用图6所示结构时,反馈时间单元和/或时间单元集合的确定动作可由处理模块610执行。在第二通信装置采用图7所示结构时,反馈时间单元和/或时间单元集合的确定动作可由处理单元720执行。
S103:第一终端装置接入第一信道,在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上发送第一反馈信息,在反馈时间单元中的第二频域资源上发送第二反馈信息。第一频域资源与第二频域资源不重叠,或者说,第一频域资源与第二频域资源不包括相同的RB。
其中,第一频域资源和第二频域资源属于所述第一信道,第一频域资源为根据承载第一数据的时频资源确定的。
第一反馈信息为针对第一数据的有效的反馈信息,包括ACK或NACK,用于指示第一数据是否正确接收。可选的,第一反馈信息还可包括但不限于CSI反馈信息,用于指示信道状态,包括预编码矩阵指示(pre-coding matrix indicator,PMI)反馈,秩指示(rank indication,RI)反馈,信道质量指示(channel quality indicator,CQI)反馈等。
此外,第一反馈信息还可包括节能信息,如唤醒指示信息或休眠指示信息,唤醒指示信息可用于唤醒UE接收至少PSCCH信息,休眠指示信息可指示UE可以进入休眠状态不接收PSCCH信息。第一反馈信息还可包括资源辅助信息,资源辅助信心例如用于指示推荐使用的资源的信息、用于指示不推荐使用的资源的信息、用于指示资源碰撞的信息、用 于指示资源预约冲突的信息,或者用于指示过去发生了或未来即将发生半双工冲突的信息等。
应理解,本申请中,有效的反馈信息是指,反馈信息至少用于指示侧行链路信息的接收端对于侧行链路信息的接收情况,该反馈信息需要侧行链路信息的发送端进行接收。
第二反馈信息可以是第一反馈信息的复制信息,或者可承载固定信息(或者说,第二反馈信息可以是预定义的比特之),例如,第二反馈信息为“0”或“1”或其他不具备实际意义的信息,因为第二频域资源的占用是为了满足未授权频段的OCB要求,只需要按照一定的功率进行发送即可。第二反馈信息可称为无效的反馈信息,无效的反馈信息是指,该反馈信息仅用于占用信道,因此侧行链路信息的发送端可以不接收和/或接收并弃置该反馈信息。
可选地,本申请中,第一终端装置即使不需要在第二频域资源发送第一反馈信息,也仍需要在第二频域资源发送第二反馈信息,其目的是在COT内占用第一信道,以防止该第一信道被其他用户抢占。具体地,所述第一终端装置接入第一信道,并在时间单元集合中的每一个时间单元的第二频域资源上发送第二反馈信息,所述每一个时间单元中的时间单元包含反馈资源。不需要第一反馈信息的情况包括以下至少一种:在只有NACK反馈的HARQ反馈机制中第一终端装置正确接收了第一数据、第一终端装置因为优先级弃置第一反馈信息(即第一终端装置需要发送其他优先级更高的信息而弃置第一反馈信息)或第一终端装置没有正确译码侧行控制信息(即第一终端装置不知道需要发送第一反馈信息)等。应理解,第二频域资源是公用给所有接入第一信道的终端设备的用于发送第二反馈信息的,不限于第一终端设备。
可选地,这里的第一信道可属于SL BWP、SL资源池或SL资源池中的子信道。其中,SL BWP可以是根据SL BWP配置信息确定的资源。SL资源池可以是根据SL资源池配置信息确定的资源。
下面结合附图介绍第一频域资源和第二频域资源的确定方式。其中,由于第一频域资源可能是根据第二频域资源确定的,这里介绍时先介绍第二频域资源的确定方式,但不代表第二频域资源的确定过程先于第一频域资源的确定过程执行。
(1)关于第二频域资源
本申请中,第二频域资源可包括两个不连续的资源块,这两个不连续的资源块之间的频域间隔为Offset个资源块,这两个资源块可以分别是第二频域资源中的第一个资源块和最后一个资源块。这里的频域间隔是指这两个不连续的资源块之间的资源块的数量。
可选的,(Offset+2)个资源块对应的带宽大于或等于第一信道的带宽与第一系数的乘积,或者说,第二频域资源对应的带宽大于或等于第一信道的带宽与第一系数的乘积,其中,第一系数大于0且小于1。例如,0.8<第一系数<1。可选的,第一系数为满足OCB需求的占用第一带宽的最小比例。该设计的目的是,使得第一终端装置通过第二频域资源发送第二反馈信息满足OCB的要求。可选的,第二频域资源还可包括这两个不连续的资源块之间的至少一个资源块。
下面说明第二频域资源的确定方式。
本申请中,第二频域资源可以由网络设备指示,或者是预配置的,或者是预定义的。因此,第二频域资源可以独立于NR release 16和17的PSFCH的时频资源进行配置。例如, 可通过网络设备指示、预配置或者预定义的方式,向多个终端装置配置相同的第二频域资源,因此多个第二终端装置可以在相同的第二频域资源发送第二反馈信息,实现多个终端装置对于同一信道的占用。
一种可能的确定方式中,可确定SL资源池中包括的交错资源,该资源池包括第一信道,即资源池的频域资源大于或等于第一信道的频域资源。示例性的,一个SL资源池可包括M个子信道,一个子信道对应一个交错资源,即子信道个数和交错资源个数相等且子信道与交错资源之间一一对应,例如第一个子信道对应第一个交错资源,以此类推。此时,第一终端装置可通过网络设备指示、预配置或者预定义的方式确定SL资源池中包括的交错资源。
或者,一个SL资源池包括M个交错资源。资源池中的交错资源的索引(或序号或编号)为0至M-1。可选地,一个SL资源池包括N个子信道,可确定N个子信道中的至少一个子信道包括第一信道,即子信道的频域资源大于或等于第一信道的频域资源,其中每个子信道里包括M个交错资源,在每个子信道中的交错资源的索引为0至M-1。
该方式中,第二频域资源为第一信道的第m个交错资源,该交错资源包含至少两个在频域上交错的资源块,其中m为大于或等于1,且,小于或等于第一信道中交错资源的总数的整数,其中,m的取值是预定义的,或是预配值,或是由网络设备通过DCI或RRC信令或SIB信息或MIB信息指示或配置给第一终端装置的。因此,可由网络设备指示,或者通过预配置的方式或者通过预定义的方式使得第一终端装置确定第一信道的第m个交错资源为第二频域资源。
例如图12所示,交错资源#1作为第二频域资源。可选的,图12中交错资源#1所包含的全部PRB为第二频域资源,或者,交错资源#1所包含的索引最小的资源块和索引最大的资源块为第二频域资源。
另一种可能的实现方式中,第二频域资源的第一个资源块可以是第一信道中的第N1(或描述为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000013
)个资源块,该第N1个资源块可以是从RB索引最大或最小开始标记的第N1个资源块,第二频域资源的最后一个资源块可以是第一信道中的第N2(或描述为
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000014
)个资源块,该第N2个资源块可以是从RB索引最大或最小开始标记的第N2个资源块。其中,N1和N2为正整数,且,N1、N2的取值可以是预定义、网络设备指示或预配置的。可选的,N1和N2之间的差值为Offset,因此可通过N1和N2的取值,使得第二频域资源对应的带宽大于或等于第一信道的带宽与第一系数的乘积。
应理解,这里所述的第二频域资源的第一个资源块,可以是按照资源块的编号由大到小排列时,编号最小的资源块,也可以说,第一个资源块是第二频域资源中频率最低的资源块。第二频域资源的最后一个资源块可以是按照资源块的编号由大到小排列时,编号最大的资源块,也可以说,最后一个资源块是第二频域资源中频率最高的资源块。可以理解的,编号的大小是相对在第一信道中的。因此,可由网络设备指示,或者通过预配置的方式或者通过预定义的方式,使得第一终端装置确定第N1个资源块为第二频域资源的第一个资源块且第N2个资源块为第二频域资源的最后一个资源块。
例如,N1=N2=1,即第二频域资源的第一个资源块为第一信道中的RB索引最小的资源块,第一频域资源的最后一个资源块为第一信道中的RB索引最大的资源块。N1和N2的取值可以相等,也可以不等,只要满足OCB要求即可。此时如图13所示,第二频域资源可以由第一信道中的第一个PRB和最后一个PRB组成。
可选的,以上第一反馈信息和/或第二反馈信息占用反馈时间单元所在时隙的最后两个符号。或者,第一反馈信息和/或第二反馈信息在反馈时间单元的最后一个符号为空闲符号(gap symbol)的情况下,占用反馈时间单元所在时隙的倒数第二和倒数第三个符号。又或者,第一反馈信息和/或第二反馈信息占用反馈时间单元所在时隙的前两个符号,如图14所示,以反馈时间单元为信道占用时间的最后一个时隙为例,第一反馈信息和/或第二反馈信息占用该时隙的前两个符号。第一反馈信息和/或第二反馈信息也可以占用反馈时间单元所在时隙的其他符号。
(2)第一频域资源
可选的,第一终端装置可根据承载第一数据的时频资源对应的交错资源的索引和/或个数和第一数据对应的标识(identifier,ID)信息确定第一频域资源。定义时间单元集合中每
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000015
个时间单元存在反馈资源,时间单元可以是时隙。
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000016
的确定方法可以采用S102的方式,即确定时间单元集合。承载第一数据的时频资源在时域上可包括第一数据所在的时隙i,
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000017
在频域上可根据交错资源的索引j和/或个数N interlace确定,因此可称索引j和/或个数N interlace为承载第一数据的时频资源对应的交错资源的索引和/或个数,其中,0≤j<N interlace,N interlace表示在一个资源池的或一个子信道中的交错资源个数。
示例性的,第一数据对应的ID信息可包括第一数据的源ID信息和/或目标ID信息。其中,第一数据的源ID信息可包括第二终端装置的标识、发起第一数据所属业务的终端装置的标识或发送第一数据的终端装置的标识。第一数据的目标ID信息可包括第一终端装置的标识、接收第一数据所属业务的终端装置的标识或接收第一数据的终端装置的标识。
具体来说,ID信息可以是层一(layer-1)ID信息,即物理层ID信息,承载于物理层控制信令如SCI中,包括目的ID(destination ID),记作Dest ID和源ID(source ID)记作Src ID。ID信息也可以是层二(layer-2)ID信息,即MAC层ID信息,承载于MAC CE中,包括目的ID和源ID。层一ID信息是层二ID信息的至少一部分信息,即层二ID信息包括完整的目的ID和源ID,层一ID信息承载一部分层二ID信息,例如,层二目的ID的长度为24比特,层一目的ID为层二目的ID的前16比特,层二源ID的长度为24比特,层一源ID为层二源ID的前8比特信息。上述8、16和24比特只是一种示例,在实际应用中可以为其他正整数,满足层二ID(包括源ID和目的ID)的比特数大于或等于层一ID的比特数即可。
应理解,ID信息可以用于标识终端设备,或者说,这里第一数据对应的ID信息可以是与第一终端装置和/或第二终端装置有关的标识;也可以用于标识数据或数据的业务,或者说,ID信息可以是与第一数据和/或第一数据所属业务有关的标识,此时ID信息可由应用(application,APP)层分配,从物理层角度,每个PSSCH可以有对应的层一ID信息,承载于对应的SCI中。
在另外的示例中,ID信息还包括组播中的UE标识,即表示针对一个组播业务或组播通信,该UE在该组播业务或组播通信中的唯一的标识M ID
示例性的,第一终端装置可根据

或可用于传输PSFCH的RB资源集
Figure PCTCN2022097892-appb-000020
中的至少一个信息,确定第一频域资源所在的RB编号。
其中,第一反馈信息的可用码域资源可以是可用CS对的数量,例如1、2、4或6对,第一终端装置可从CS对中确定第一反馈信息对应的CS对。可用于传输PSFCH的RB资源集可以是第一频域资源和/或第二频域资源可能的RB的集合。可用CS对的数量和/或可用于传输PSFCH的RB资源集,可以是预定义的,或是预配的,或是由网络设备通过DCI、RRC信令或SIB指示给第一终端装置的,或者是由第二终端装置通过SCI或PC5RRC信令指示给第一终端装置的。
可选的,在S103的实施中,第一终端装置还可根据第一码域资源,在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上发送第一反馈信息,其中,第一码域资源为根据承载第一数据的时频资源对应的交错资源的索引和/或个数,和第一数据对应的标识信息确定的。例如,第一终端装置可从第一反馈信息对应的CS对中确定与第一频域资源确定的第一码域资源,用于通过第一码域资源在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上发送第一反馈信息。
具体的,第一终端装置可根据以下方式确定第一频域资源和/或第一码域资源。

第一终端装置可从

得到PSFCH资源编号,其中,ID表示第一数据对应的标识信息,根据PSFCH资源编号和第一资源排序原则确定第一频域资源和第一码域资源。
可选的,ID=Src ID,或ID=Dest ID,或ID=M ID,或ID=Src ID+M ID,或ID=Dest ID+M ID,或ID=Src ID+Dest ID+M ID
需要理解的,第一信道中可用于传输PSFCH的RB资源集可以不包括第二频域资源,则PSFCH资源可用于第二频域资源的传输。第一资源的传输不属于PSFCH。另一种可能的实现方式,第一信道中可用于传输PSFCH的RB资源集包括第一频域资源和第二频域资源,则PSFCH资源既可以用于第一反馈信息的传输,也可以用于第二反馈信息的传输。
示例性的,在第一通信装置采用图6所示结构时,S101可通过收发模块620执行。在第一通信装置采用图7所示结构时,S101可通过收发单元710执行。其中,在第一通信装置采用图6所示结构时,确定第一码域资源、第一频域资源和第二频域资源的动作可由处理模块610执行。在第一通信装置采用图7所示结构时,确定第一码域资源、第一频域资源和第二频域资源的动作可由处理单元720执行。

第二终端装置在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上接收第一反馈信息的实现方式例如,第二终端装置可在第一频域资源上检测第一反馈信息。
可选的,第二终端装置在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上接收第一反馈信息之前,第二终端装置确定第一频域资源,进一步可选的,第二终端装置还可确定第二频域资源。该第二频域资源用于接收第二反馈信息,第二反馈信息可以是第一反馈信息的复制信息或预定义的比特流。第二终端装置确定第一频域资源的方式可参照S103中第一终端装置确定第一频域资源的说明,第二终端装置确定第二频域资源的方式可参照S103中第一终端装置确定第二频域资源的说明。
其中,第二频域资源可包括两个不连续的资源块,这两个不连续的资源块之间的频域间隔为Offset个资源块,这两个资源块可以分别是第二频域资源中的第一个资源块和最后一个资源块。这里的频域间隔是指这两个不连续的资源块之间的资源块的数量。可选的,(Offset+2)个资源块对应的带宽大于或等于第一信道的带宽与第一系数的乘积,第一系数大于0且小于1。
可选的,第二频域资源可以由网络设备指示,或者是预配置的,或者是预定义的。例如,由网络设备指示,或者通过预配置的方式或者预定义的方式使得第二终端装置确定第一信道的第m个交错资源为第二频域资源,m的含义可参见S103中的说明。又如,由网络设备指示,或者通过预配置的方式或者通过预定义的方式,使得第二终端装置确定第N1个资源块为第二频域资源的第一个资源块且第N2个资源块为第二频域资源的最后一个资源块,N1和N2的含义可参见S103中的说明。
可选的,第二终端装置可根据承载第一数据的时频资源对应的交错资源的索引和/或个数和第一数据对应的ID信息确定第一频域资源。其中,承载第一数据的时频资源对应的交错资源的索引、个数和第一数据对应的ID信息,可参照S103中的说明。
在一些实施例中,第二终端装置还可根据第一码域资源,在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上接收第一反馈信息,其中,第一码域资源为根据承载第一数据的时频资源对应的交错资源的索引和/或个数,和第一数据对应的标识信息确定的。
例如,第二终端装置可参照步骤1)至步骤3)确定第一频域资源和/或第一码域资源。
可选的,第二终端装置还可在反馈时间单元中的第二频域资源上接收第二反馈信息。例如,第二终端装置可在第二频域资源上盲检第二反馈信息。其中,第二终端装置在接收 到第二反馈信息后,可弃置第二反馈信息。第二终端装置也在第二频域资源上不对第二反馈信息进行检测。
应理解,本申请不限制第二终端装置在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上接收第一反馈信息的执行时序与S103的执行时序。另外,不限定第一终端装置确定第一频域资源和第二终端装置确定第一频域资源的时序关系,不限定第一终端装置确定第二频域资源和第二终端装置确定第二频域资源的时序关系。
示例性的,在第二通信装置采用图6所示结构时,第二终端装置在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上接收第一反馈信息的动作可通过收发模块620执行。在第二通信装置采用图7所示结构时,第二终端装置在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源上接收第一反馈信息的动作可通过收发单元710执行。其中,在第二通信装置采用图6所示结构时,确定第一码域资源、第一频域资源和/或第二频域资源的动作可由处理模块610执行。在第二通信装置采用图7所示结构时,确定第一码域资源、第一频域资源和/或第二频域资源的动作可由处理单元720执行。
采用图8所示方法,第一终端装置可在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源和第二频域资源发送反馈信息,其中,反馈时间单元是根据信道占用时间内的对应于第一数据的时间单元,因此该反馈信息的发送过程可以增加反馈信息占用的频域带宽,使得第一终端装置的侧行链路信息反馈过程满足非授权频段对于信道接入的要求,因此,通过PSFCH发送HARQ信息的反馈机制能够使用在非授权频段,以提高非授权频段下SL系统的通信可靠性。
基于图8所示方法,如图15所示,接入第一信道的第一终端装置可在反馈时间单元中的第一频域资源(图15中的PSFCCH频域资源1)上向第二终端装置发送第一反馈信息,以及在反馈时间单元中的第二频域资源(图15中的PSFCCH频域资源2)上向第二终端装置发送第二反馈信息。
另外,如图15所示,除第一终端装置以外的其他终端装置可通过该反馈时间单元发送反馈信息,其他终端装置包括但不限于图中示出的第三终端装置和第四终端装置。可选的,包括第一终端装置在内,这些终端装置均可在第二频域资源发送反馈信息,以及,包括第一终端装置在内的各个终端装置,分别在各自的第一频域资源发送针对各自的侧行链路信息的有效的反馈信息。
例如图15所示,第三终端装置可通过PSFCH资源3发送第三反馈信息,以及通过PSFCH资源2发送第四反馈信息。其中,第三终端装置可以接收来自于第三终端装置以外的任一终端装置(如第五终端装置)的侧行链路信息(例如包括第二数据),并通过第三反馈信息发送针对该侧行链路信息对应的ACK或NACK。第四反馈信息可以是无效的反馈信息。应理解,第三终端装置确定PSFCH资源3的方式,可参照第一终端装置确定第一频域资源的方式,第三终端装置确定PSFCH资源2的方式,可参照第一终端装置确定第二反馈资源的方式。同理,第四终端装置可在PSFCH资源4发送有效的反馈信息,以及在PSFCH资源2发送无效的反馈信息。这里所举例的有效的反馈信息可参照本申请中对于第一反馈信息的描述,无效的反馈信息可参照本申请中对于第二反馈信息的描述。
可选的,图15中,第一终端装置、第三终端装置以及第四终端装置分别的侧行链路信息可通过交错资源发送,因此可以由分别向第一终端装置至第四终端装置发送侧行链路信息的至少一个终端装置占用第一信道。
