Description

Hybrid automatic retransmission request feedback method and device Technical field

This application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback method and device.

Background technique

The physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) issued by the base station requires the terminal device to feed back corresponding HARQ information. At present, in order to be able to receive the HARQ information of the PDSCH in an accurate and orderly manner, the base station will set different timings to determine when to let the terminal device feedback and report the HARQ information. Since it takes a certain amount of time when the terminal device processes the PDSCH, the timing can reflect the processing capability of the terminal device.

Similarly, in sidelink communication, the transmitting-side terminal device sends sidelink data to the receiving-side terminal device, and the receiving-side terminal device needs to feed back the HARQ information of the sidelink data to the transmitting-side terminal device. Currently, HARQ information is carried on the sidelink physical feedback channel (PSFCH), and PSFCH resources are configured periodically. At this time, a slot offset value k can be configured, starting from the slot where the sidelink data ends. HARQ information is fed back on PSFCH resources separated by at least K time slots. For example, when sidelink data ends in time slot n, after the interval of K time slots, if there are PSFCH resources on time slot n+K, the receiving device will use this time slot n The HARQ information is fed back on the PSFCH resource of +K. If there is no PSFCH resource on the time slot n+K, the receiving device feeds back the HARQ information on the first PSFCH resource after the time slot n+K. At present, the agreed value of k is 2, that is, 2 time slots. However, 2 time slots cannot satisfy all conditions, resulting in HARQ feedback failure.

Summary of the invention

The present application provides a HARQ feedback method and device, which are used to solve the problem that the time slot offset value in the current sidelink communication is not applicable in some scenarios and causes the HARQ feedback failure.

In the first aspect, the HARQ feedback method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to network equipment or terminal equipment. The method includes: determining the time offset value according to the time domain resource configuration of the sidelink resource, and the sidelink resource is The time-frequency resource that carries sidelink control information (SCI), or the time-frequency resource that carries HARQ information, or the time-frequency resource that carries sidelink data; the time offset value refers to the time-frequency resource that carries sidelink data and the HARQ information that carries sidelink data The time interval that needs to be met between time-frequency resources. In the embodiment of this application, a longer time offset value is configured for some scenarios where the sidelink data processing time is longer, so that the terminal device can have more processing time, thereby avoiding the inability to report HARQ information due to insufficient PSSCH processing time Case.

In a possible design, the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI may be a sidelink physical control channel (PSCCH). In the above design, in the first-level SCI scenario, the time offset value can be determined according to the time length of the PSCCH, and a longer time offset value can be configured when the time length of the PSCCH is longer, so that the terminal equipment can be more Processing time, in turn, can avoid the situation that the HARQ information cannot be reported due to insufficient PSSCH processing time.

In a possible design, the time-frequency resources that carry the SCI include the time-frequency resources that carry the first-level SCI and the time-frequency resources that carry the second-level SCI, where the first SCI is used to indicate the resources that carry the second-level SCI Information and PSSCH resource information. The second SCI is used to indicate at least one of the following information: HARQ feedback information, HARQ process, and new data indication (NDI). Since the two-level SCI requires more analysis time, through the above design, in the two-level SCI scenario, the time offset value can be determined according to the sum of the time length of the first level SCI and the second level SCI. When the total time length is longer, a longer time offset value is configured, so that the terminal device can have more processing time, thereby avoiding the situation that the HARQ information cannot be reported due to insufficient PSSCH processing time.

In a possible design, when the number of time units included in the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI is greater than the first threshold, the time offset value may be the first value. When the number of time units included in the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI is less than or equal to the first threshold, the time offset value may be a second value; where the first value is greater than the second value. Through the above design, the time offset value can be configured according to the number of time units carrying the SCI time-frequency resource, so that a longer time offset value can be configured when the number of time units carrying the SCI time-frequency resource is large, so that the terminal device can have More processing time.

In a possible design, when the time domain resource configuration of the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI and the time-frequency resource carrying the sidelink data are the same, the time offset value may be the first value. In the above design, when the time-frequency resource configuration of the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI and the time-frequency resource carrying the sidelink data are the same, the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI is longer. By configuring a longer time offset value, the terminal device can have more More processing time.

In a possible design, the time-frequency resource carrying HARQ information may be PSFCH. Through the above design, the time offset value can be determined according to the time domain resource configuration of the PSFCH.

In a possible design, when the start symbol of the PSFCH is before the first symbol, the time offset value may be the first value. When the starting symbol of the PSFCH is the first symbol or after the first symbol, the time offset value may be the second value; wherein, the first value is greater than the second value. When the start symbol of the PSFCH is relatively forward, the terminal device has a shorter time to process the sidelink physical shared channel (PSSCH). In the above design, the terminal device can have more time to resolve the PSSCH through a larger time offset value. .

In one possible design, the length of the PSFCH can be configurable. Through the above design, the flexibility of PSFCH can be improved.

In a possible design, the time-frequency resource carrying sidelink data may be PSSCH. Through the above design, the time offset value can be configured according to the PSSCH, which can avoid the HARQ feedback failure caused by the long PSSCH time length and the insufficient processing time of the terminal device.

In a possible design, when there are N modulation and demodulation reference signals (DMRS) of the PSSCH, the time offset value may be the first value; or, when there are M DMRS of the PSSCH, the time offset value may be Is the second value; where N and M are both integers greater than 0, and N is greater than M, the first value is greater than the second value. Through the above design, it is possible to avoid the HARQ feedback failure caused by the long PSSCH time length and the insufficient processing time of the terminal equipment.

In the second aspect, the HARQ feedback method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to network equipment or terminal equipment. The method includes: determining a time offset value according to the first subcarrier interval and the second subcarrier interval , Where the first subcarrier interval is the subcarrier interval of the carrier where the sidelink data is located, the second subcarrier interval is the subcarrier interval of the carrier where the HARQ information is located, and the time offset value refers to the time-frequency resource that carries the sidelink data and the time-frequency resource that carries the sidelink data. The time interval that needs to be met between the time-frequency resources of the HARQ information. In the embodiments of this application, for scenarios where the subcarrier spacing of the carrier where the sidelink data is located is different from the subcarrier spacing of the carrier where the HARQ information is located, the flexibility of configuring the time offset value can be achieved, thereby avoiding the time offset value being too small, resulting in The processing time of the PSSCH of the terminal device is insufficient, which in turn leads to the problem of HARQ feedback failure.

In a possible design, when the first subcarrier interval is greater than the second subcarrier interval, the time offset value may be the first value; or, when the first subcarrier interval is less than the second subcarrier interval, the time offset The shift value can be a second value. The time length of the time slot under different subcarrier intervals is different, where the first value is greater than the second value. Through the above design, it is possible to avoid the problem that the subcarrier interval of the carrier where the sidelink data is located is different from the subcarrier interval of the carrier where the HARQ information is located, which causes the HARQ feedback failure.

In a possible design, when the first subcarrier interval is equal to the second subcarrier interval, the time offset value can be determined according to the time domain resource configuration of the sidelink resource of the sidelink, and the sidelink resource is the time when the sidelink control information SCI is carried.

Those of ordinary skill in the art will know that with the network With the evolution of the architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are equally applicable to similar technical problems.

D2D communication technology refers to a communication method that directly communicates between two peer-to-peer user nodes. D2D communication has different applications in different networks, such as Wi-Fi Direct (Direct) or Bluetooth technology (a short-distance time division duplex communication) in a WIFI network. As a key technology in 4G technology, D2D communication has always attracted attention. The 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) introduced LTE-D2D/V2X, LTE-V2X (Vehicle to everything) technology in LTE It also applies D2D communication technology to the Internet of Vehicles for vehicle-to-vehicle communication. D2D aims to enable user communication devices within a certain distance to communicate directly to reduce the load on the serving base station.

In the 5G system, the PDSCH delivered by the base station requires the terminal device to feed back the corresponding HARQ information. In order to receive the HARQ information of the PDSCH in an accurate and orderly manner, the base station will set different timings to determine when to let the terminal device feedback and report the HARQ information. Since it takes a certain amount of time for the terminal device to process the PDSCH, this timing cannot be set too small, otherwise the terminal device may not have time to process the PDSCH and cannot report the HARQ information.

Similarly, in sidelink communication, in unicast and multicast scenarios, the sending device sends sidelink data to one or more receiving devices, and the receiving device needs to feed back the HARQ information of the sidelink data to the sending device. The HARQ mechanism of the NR sidelink system: sidelink defines a dedicated HARQ feedback channel—the physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH). The resources of the PSFCH are configured periodically. As shown in Figure 2, the configuration of the PSFCH can be 1 time slot, 2 time slots, 4 time slots, and so on. In sidelink communication, a slot offset value k is configured to indicate the minimum time interval for the receiving device to feed back HARQ information. For example, at the end of slot n, the slot in which the receiving device sends PSFCH is later than or equal to slot n+k The nearest time slot containing PSFCH resources. In other words, the distance from the time slot where the side-line data ends to the time slot of the side-line feedback must be greater than or equal to k time slots. For example, the sidelink data is carried on time slot n, and after an interval of K time slots, if there are PSFCH resources on time slot n+K, the receiving device feeds back HARQ information on the PSFCH resource of time slot n+K. For example, the PSFCH configuration period is 2 time slots, and K is equal to 2, as shown in Figure 3. The sidelink physical shared channel (PSSCH) 2 feeds back HARQ information on the PSFCH 2, and the PSSCH 4 is on the PSFCH 3. HARQ information is fed back on. If there is no PSFCH resource in the time slot n+K, the receiving device feeds back HARQ information on the first PSFCH resource after the time slot n+K. For example, as shown in Fig. 3, PSSCH 1 feeds back HARQ information on PSFCH 2, and PSSCH 3 feeds back HARQ information on PSFCH 3.

At present, the agreed value of k is 2, that is, 2 time slots. However, 2 time slots cannot satisfy all situations. For example, when the number of PSSCH symbols is relatively large, it may take more time for the terminal equipment to parse the PSSCH. After 2 time slots, the terminal equipment may not have processed the PSFCH when it arrives. As shown in Figure 3, when the number of symbols of PSSCH 1 is large, the terminal device may not have finished processing PSSCH 1 when PSFCH 1 arrives, and thus cannot feed back PSSCH 1 on PSFCH 1. HARQ information. For another example, when the sidelink system supports two-stage sidelink control information (SCI) (2stage SCI), the terminal device needs more time to parse the SCI, so that the PSSCH will be received at the time, so after 2 time slots When the PSFCH arrives, the terminal device may not have time to process the PSSCH, and thus cannot feed back the HARQ information. The PSSCH has not been processed. For example, as shown in Figure 3, when the sidelink system supports 2 stage SCI, the terminal device needs more time to resolve the SCI. Therefore, when the PSFCH 1 arrives, the terminal device may not have time to process the PSSCH 1, and thus cannot feed back the PSSCH 1 in the PSFCH 1. HARQ information.

The embodiments of the present application provide a HARQ feedback method and device. Among them, the method and the device are based on the same technical idea. Since the principles of the method and the device to solve the problem are similar, the implementation of the device and the method can be referred to each other, and the repetition will not be repeated.

The multiple mentioned in this application refers to two or more.

In addition, it should be understood that in the description of this application, words such as "first" and "second" are only used for the purpose of distinguishing description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance, nor can it be understood as indicating Or imply the order.

LTE D2D resource configuration methods are divided into two types, Mode1 and Mode2. The resource configuration method of Mode1 is that the base station configures multiple Resource Pools to the D2D device through RRC signaling in advance. When the D2D device requests D2D transmission, the base station uses the DCI signal Let the corresponding Resource Pool be activated for D2D transmission. The resource configuration method of Mode2 is different from the resource configuration method of Mode1 in that when the D2D device needs to perform D2D transmission, the D2D device autonomously selects some time-frequency resources from the predefined Resource Pool for D2D transmission.

In the 5G NR system, V2X resource configuration methods are divided into two modes, Mode1 and Mode2. The resource configuration method of Mode1 is that the base station allocates resources to terminal devices through RRC signaling configuration and DCI signaling in advance. The resource configuration method of Mode2 is different from the resource configuration method of Mode1 in that when the terminal device needs to perform side link transmission, the terminal device autonomously selects some time-frequency resources from the predefined Resource Pool for V2X transmission.

For a terminal device, it may receive sidelink data (such as PSSCH) sent by one or more other terminal devices. Hereinafter, the terminal device that receives the PSSCH is called the receiving device, and the terminal device that sends the PSSCH is called the transmitting device. As far as a receiving device is concerned, it may receive the PSSCH sent by one or more other sending devices. It should be understood that the sending device and the receiving device are relative terms, the sending device may also have a receiving function, and the receiving device may also have a sending function.

When the receiving device communicates with the sending device, the two terminal devices can communicate directly without passing through the network device. Exemplarily, the manner in which the receiving device communicates with the sending device may be referred to as D2D transmission, or it may also be referred to as sidelink communication, or it may also be referred to as other, which is not specifically limited here.

It should be understood that HARQ information may also be referred to as HARQ codebook or the like.

The HARQ feedback provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Embodiment 1: Refer to FIG. 4, which is a flowchart of a HARQ feedback method provided by this application. The method can be applied to network equipment and terminal equipment. For example, in LTE D2D or NR V2X Mode 1, the network device can use the method provided in this application to determine the time offset value, and in LTE D2D or NR V2X Mode 2, the terminal device can use the method provided in this application to determine the time offset value . The method includes:

S401: Determine a time offset value K according to the time domain resource configuration of the sidelink resource. Among them, K refers to the time interval that needs to be satisfied between the time-frequency resource carrying sidelink data and the time-frequency resource carrying sidelink data corresponding to HARQ information. It can also be understood as the time-frequency resource carrying sidelink data and the time-frequency resource carrying sidelink data corresponding to HARQ information. There are at least the K time slots between the time-frequency resources, which can also be understood as the minimum time interval between the time-frequency resource that carries the sidelink data and the time-frequency resource that carries the HARQ information corresponding to the sidelink data.

It should be understood that the time offset value K in the embodiment of the present application is only described in units of time slots, and the unit of the time offset value K is not specifically limited. In specific implementations, other time granularity units may also be used. For example, mini-slots, symbols, etc.

In one embodiment, the sidelink resource is a time-frequency resource that carries the sidelink control information SCI.

In an exemplary illustration, the time-frequency resource that carries the SCI may be a sidelink physical control channel (physical sidelink control channel, PSCCH). Correspondingly, the time domain resource configuration of the sidelink resource may refer to the number of time units of the PSCCH. Among them, the time unit can be, but is not limited to, time slots, mini-slots, symbols, and so on.

This exemplary description can be applied to the scenario of the first-level SCI, that is, the sending device sends the first-level SCI to the receiving device, and the SCI is used to indicate the resource size of the PSSCH, modulation and coding scheme (modulation and coding scheme, MCS), and demodulation. Reference signal (demodulation reference signal, DMRS) pattern (pattern), time-frequency resource location, and time-frequency resource size.

In another exemplary description, if the sidelink system supports 2 stage SCI, that is, the sending device sends a two-stage SCI to the receiving device, where the first-stage SCI can be carried on the PSCCH to indicate the resource information for carrying the second-stage SCI As well as PSSCH resource information, the second-level SCI can be carried on the PSCCH or PSSCH for transmission, and is used to indicate HARQ feedback information, HARQ process, new data indication (NDI), etc. The time-frequency resources that carry the SCI may include the time-frequency resources that carry the first-level SCI and the time-frequency resources that carry the second-level SCI. Correspondingly, the time-domain resource configuration of sidelink resources can refer to the total number of time units occupied by the first-level SCI and the second-level SCI. Among them, if the first-level SCI is carried and sent on the PSCCH, the number of time units occupied by the first-level SCI may be equal to the number of time units of the PSCCH. The number of time units of the PSCCH can be equal to the total number of time units available for sidelink transmission in a time slot. Among them, the time unit can be, but is not limited to, time slots, mini-slots, symbols, and so on. Take the time unit as the symbol as an example for description.

It is understandable that the time unit available for sidelink transmission in a time slot may not include symbols used for automatic gain control (AGC) adjustment and symbols used for gap (gap).

In an implementation manner, when the number of symbols included in the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI is greater than the first threshold, the time offset value K may be the first value. When the number of time units included in the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI is less than the first threshold, the time offset value K may be the second value. When the number of time units included in the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI is equal to the first threshold, the time offset value K may be the first value or the second value. Among them, the first value is greater than the second value.

Exemplarily, the first threshold X may be equal to the number of symbols used to send sidelink data in the time slot, for example, X=12. Among them, X may not include symbols adjusted by AGC and symbols used for gap.

In another implementation manner, the time offset value is determined to be the first value when the time domain resource configuration of the time-frequency resource carrying the SCI and the time-frequency resource carrying the sidelink data are the same.

In the following, in combination with specific scenarios, the first value is 3 and the second value is 2 as an example for description.

Scenario 1: If the relationship between the time-frequency resources of the PSSCH and the time-frequency resources of the PSCCH is, a part of the time-domain resources of the PSSCH is the same as the time-domain resources of the PSCCH, and a part of the frequency-domain resources of the PSSCH overlaps with the frequency-domain resources of the PSCCH, such as Shown in Figure 5.

In this scenario, the number of PSCCH symbols can be configured. When the SCI contains level 1, if L _PSCCH ≥ X, K can be equal to 3, and when L _PSCCH <X, K can be equal to 2, where L _PSCCH Is the number of time units of PSCCH, and X is the first threshold. As shown in Figure 6, the PSFCH configuration period is 2 time slots as an example.

When the SCI contains 2 levels, if the _{sum of the number of symbols L 1st} SCI occupied by the first level SCI and the number of symbols L _{2nd SCI} occupied by the second level SCI is greater than or equal to Y, that is, L _{1st SCI} + L _{2nd SCI} ≥Y, k=3, otherwise k=2. Among them, if the first-level SCI is sent on the PSCCH, the number of symbols occupied by the first-level SCI can be equal to the number of symbols of the PSSCH, that is, L _{1st SCI} =L _PSCCH . If both levels of SCI are transmitted on the PSCCH, the number of symbols occupied by the two levels of SCI can be equal to the number of symbols of the PSSCH, that is, L _{1st SCI} + L _{2nd SCI} = L _PSCCH .

The number of PSCCH symbols can be equal to the total number of symbols available for sideline transmission in a slot. It is understandable that the time unit available for sidelink transmission in a time slot may not include the symbols used for AGC adjustment and the symbols used for gap.

Scenario 2: If the relationship between the time-frequency resources of the PSCCH and the time-frequency resources of the PSCCH is that the time-domain resources of the PSSCH and the time-domain resources of the PSCCH completely overlap, a part of the frequency-domain resources of the PSSCH and the frequency-domain resources of the PSCCH do not overlap, such as Shown in Figure 7.

In this scenario, the number of PSCCH symbols cannot be configured. When the SCI contains level 1, the time offset value K may be equal to the first value.

When the SCI contains 2 levels, if the _{sum of the number of symbols L 1st} SCI occupied by the first level SCI and the number of symbols L _{2nd SCI} occupied by the second level SCI is greater than or equal to Y, that is, L _{1st SCI} + L _{2nd SCI} ≥ Y, k=3, otherwise k=2, where Y is the first threshold. If the first-level SCI is sent on the PSCCH, the number of symbols occupied by the first-level SCI can be equal to the number of symbols of the PSSCH, that is, L _{1st SCI} =L _PSCCH . The number of PSCCH symbols can be equal to the total number of symbols available for sideline transmission in a slot. If both levels of SCI are transmitted on PSCCH, the number of symbols occupied by the two levels of SCI can be equal to the number of symbols of PSCCH, that is, L _{1st SCI} + L _{2nd SCI} = L _PSCCH can understand, the time available for sidelink transmission in a time slot The unit may not contain the symbols used for AGC adjustment and the symbols used for gap.

In another implementation manner, the sidelink resources are time-frequency resources that carry HARQ information. Exemplarily, the time-frequency resource carrying HARQ information may be PSFCH. Correspondingly, the time-domain resource configuration of the sidelink resource may refer to the position of the start symbol of the PSFCH.

In an implementation manner, when the start symbol of the PSFCH is before the first symbol, the time offset value K may be the first value. When the start symbol of the PSFCH is after the first symbol, the time offset value K may be the second value. When the start symbol of the PSFCH is the first symbol, the time offset value K may be the first value or the second value. Among them, the first value is greater than the second value. Exemplarily, the first symbol may be symbol 7.

For example, suppose the first value is 3, the second value is 2, and the first symbol is symbol 7. If the starting symbol of PSFCH is before symbol 7, then K can be equal to 3. If the starting symbol of PSFCH is symbol 7 or After the symbol 7, K can be equal to 2. As shown in Figure 8, the PSFCH configuration period is 2 time slots as an example. It should be understood that FIG. 8 is only an exemplary illustration, and does not limit the size of the time domain resource of the PSFCH, nor does it limit the size of the frequency domain resource of the PSFCH.

In another implementation manner, the time offset value K may also be determined according to the number of symbols of the PSFCH, or the number of symbols of the PSFCH and the transmission position.

Take the first value as 3, the second value as 2, and the first symbol as the symbol i as an example. The following introduces several scenarios where the start symbol of the PSFCH may be before the symbol i. When the PSFCH is in the following scenarios, K can Equal to 3, otherwise K can be equal to 2.

Scenario 1: The PSFCH can adopt a "short format" of one symbol, that is, the PSFCH includes 1 or 2 symbols. And the PSFCH should be sent before the symbol i.

Scenario 2: The PSFCH can be sent in a "long format", where the number of symbols of the PSFCH can be fixed M, and M is an integer greater than 2. When M is greater than (14-i), the start symbol of PSFCH is before symbol i. M can also be equal to the number of symbols used for sidelink transmission in the current time slot.

Assuming that M is equal to 12 and i is equal to 7, the starting symbol of the PSFCH with the number of symbols of 12 will be earlier than symbol 7.

The symbols of PSFCH may not include the symbols used for AGC and gap.

Scenario 3: PSFCH can be sent in "long format", where the number of symbols of PSFCH can be configured within the range of [P, Q], where P is an integer greater than 2. The range of [P, Q] can include all the symbols used for sidelink transmission in the current time slot. If the PSFCH is sent on the last 14-i symbols in a time slot, when the number of PSFCH symbols is greater than 14-i-1, k can be equal to 3.

Assuming that the number of PSFCH symbols is configurable in the range of 4-12 symbols, and i is equal to 7, if the PSFCH is sent on the last 7 symbols in a time slot, when the number of PSFCH symbols is greater than 6, k=3.

The symbols of PSFCH may not include the symbols used for AGC and gap.

Scenario 4: When the sidelink link shares the carrier with the Uu link, not all time slots on a carrier are used for sidelink link transmission, or not all symbols in a time slot are used for sidelink link Sent. Currently, flexible symbols and/or uplink symbols can be used for sidelink transmission. For a time slot that contains at least two symbols in the uplink and downlink and the flexible symbol, the transmission of the sidelink link may start to be transmitted on different symbols in a time slot. Therefore, when the flexible symbol and/or uplink symbol used for sideline transmission in the time slot start before the first i symbols of the time slot, for example, as shown in Figure 9, the starting symbol of the PSFCH may be Before the symbol i.

In this scenario, the format of the PSFCH can be format-indifferent, and it can be either a long format or a short format.

Scenario 5: When the transmission of sidelink data and the HARQ feedback of sidelink data are on different carriers, since the number of symbols used to send sidelink data on each carrier is different, it may also cause the starting symbol of PSFCH to be before symbol i, such as Shown in Figure 10.

In another embodiment, the sidelink resource is a time-frequency resource that carries sidelink data. Exemplarily, the time-frequency resource carrying sidelink data may be PSSCH. Correspondingly, the time-domain resource configuration of sidelink resources may refer to the number of DMRS of PSSCH.

In an implementation manner, when there are N DMRSs of the PSSCH, the time offset value K may be the first value. When there are M DMRSs of the PSSCH, the time offset value K may be the second value. Wherein, N and M are both integers greater than 0, and N is greater than M, and the first value is greater than the second value.

For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the number of DMRS of the PSSCH is 2, the time offset value K may be 2. As shown in FIG. 12, when the number of DMRS of the PSSCH is 4, the time offset value K may be 3.

Among them, when there are M DMRSs of the PSSCH, it can be called an additional DMRS (additional DMRS) scenario.

In another implementation manner, when the DMRS of the PSSCH is greater than the second threshold, the time offset value K may be the first value. When the DMRS of the PSSCH is less than the second threshold, the time offset value K may be the second value. When the DMRS of the PSSCH is equal to the second threshold, the time offset value K may be the first value or the second value. Among them, the first value is greater than the second value.

It should be understood that when the number of DMRS of the PSSCH is different, the specific location of the DMRS may not be limited. The DMRS may be located at the symbol at the beginning of the time slot or the first symbol immediately after the PSCCH. These two cases may be referred to as preamble. DMRS (front-loaded DMRS) can also be located on other symbols.

In a possible implementation manner, in LTE D2D or NR V2X Mode 1, step S401 may be executed by a network device. In a possible implementation manner, after performing step S401, the network device may send a resource pool (Resource Pool, RP) configuration to the terminal device, where the RP configuration carries the time offset value K. Therefore, the receiving device can perform HARQ feedback to the sending device based on the time offset value.

In a possible implementation manner, in LTE D2D or NR V2X Mode 2, step S401 may be executed by a terminal device. Therefore, the receiving device can perform HARQ feedback to the sending device based on the time offset value.

In an implementation manner, after receiving the PSSCH sent by the sending device, the receiving device feeds back the HARQ information of the PSSCH after an interval of K time slots, specifically, on the PSFCH resource that arrives first after the interval of K time slots. The HARQ information of the PSSCH is transmitted.

In the embodiment of the present application, a longer time offset value is configured for some scenarios where the PSSCH processing time is longer, so that the HARQ information cannot be reported due to insufficient PSSCH processing time.
