- Wireless communications have undergone a technological evolution from the first generation of analog communication systems to the new 5G NR systems.
- beamforming based on multiple input multiple output (MIMO) is an important aspect.
- Beamforming can be regarded as a spatial filtering process. Its technical principle is to limit the transmission or reception of signals to a certain angle range, thereby increasing gain and reducing interference.
- Beamforming has already appeared in the second generation of mobile communication systems ( 2nd generation, 2G), when it was achieved by selecting different transmitting or receiving antennas.
- the third generation of mobile communication systems ( 3rd generation, 3G) and later communication systems tend to use phased arrays to achieve beamforming.
- BM beam management
- Beam management is an important technology proposed by 5G NR for FR2, including two important functions: beam training and beam failure recovery.
- Beam training includes transmit beam training and receive beam training, which can be divided into three steps. The operations of each step are summarized as follows:
- the base station sends a reference signal (RS) based on a set of transmit beams.
- RS reference signal
- the transmit beam set may include one or more transmit beams.
- One transmit beam may correspond to one transmit direction, and multiple different transmit beams may correspond to different transmit directions.
- the terminal may receive the RS through the receive beam, measure and feedback the RS, and select the transmit beam of the base station and the receive beam of the terminal.
- S2 Based on S1, the base station sends RS based on a smaller set of transmit beams.
- a smaller transmit beam set may be a subset of the transmit beam set in S1, or may be a narrower beam set corresponding to the direction of one or more transmit beams included in the transmit beam set in S1.
- the terminal may receive the RS through the receive beam, measure and provide feedback on the RS, and improve the transmit beam of the base station.
- S3 The base station sends RS using one transmit beam.
- One of the transmission beams in S3 may be the transmission beam of the base station improved by the terminal in S2.
- the terminal receives RSs using different reception beams, measures and feeds back the RSs, and improves the reception beam of the terminal.
- the beam training of 5G NR downlink can be carried out.
- S1 and S2 are the processes of the base station to perform the transmission beam training.
- RS can be a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS).
- the base station will configure several beam directions, each beam direction corresponds to a CSI-RS resource and the time-frequency resources that the terminal should use when providing feedback.
- the base station periodically or non-periodically sends CSI-RS to each direction in turn in a scanning manner.
- the terminal measures the received power (reference signal received power, RSRP) of the CSI-RS and obtains the channel state information reference signal resource indicator (CSI-RS resource indicator, CRI) of the CSI-RS. After obtaining the RSRP, the terminal selects one or several RSRPs and the corresponding CRI and feeds them back to the base station.
- the base station uses the feedback information to determine the transmit beam to be used.
- the uplink beam training also uses a similar process, but the reference signals used are different.

- V2V For extended sensors, after a vehicle senses other vehicles, it informs other vehicles of this sensor information through V2V, solving the problem of inaccurate environmental perception caused by the limited sensor capabilities of the vehicle itself.
- V2V communication technology can be extended to D2D communication in any system.
- problems in V2V communication In order to promote the long-term development of V2V and V2X technologies, beam management in V2V SL is an important aspect that needs to be solved urgently.
- the R16 standard defines two resource allocation modes for SL communication: mode 1 and mode 2.
- mode 1 the base station allocates transmission resources to V2X through the Uu (UTRAN-to-UE) air interface, so the terminals in mode 1 must be within the network coverage.
- the spectrum resources of SL can be shared with uplink communication resources.
- mode 1 and mode 2 can be allocated to different resource pools or share resource pools. Resource pool sharing can improve resource utilization efficiency, but it is also easy to cause conflicts between mode 1 and mode 2. Therefore, the terminal in mode 1 will notify the terminal in mode 2 of the resources allocated for its future transmission.
- the terminal can obtain SL resource pool configuration information and/or SL bandwidth part (BWP) configuration information by receiving the system information block (SIB) of the network device, cell-level (cell-specific) radio resource control (RRC) signaling or terminal user level (UE-specific) RRC signaling.

- One or more time units may be continuous in time or discrete. It should be understood that the time domain units in a resource pool are logically continuous.
- time slots 1 to 8 are time slots that are continuous in time, and such time slots are called physical time slots.
- the continuous time slots contained in the resource pool i.e., time slot 1’, 2’, 3’, and 4’
- Such logically continuous but not necessarily temporally continuous time slots are called logical time slots.
- a frequency domain unit can be a resource element (RE), several REs, a resource block (RB), several RBs, a sub-channel, and several sub-channels.

- the SL resource pool configuration information may also include the configuration information of the PSCCH, and the configuration information of the PSCCH includes the number of symbols occupied by the PSCCH in a time slot and the number of RBs occupied by the PSCCH in a subchannel.

- time unit is described as a time slot, but the time unit is not limited to being a time slot.
- time unit is described as a subchannel, but the frequency domain unit is not limited to being a subchannel.
- SCI in SL communication is divided into first-level SCI and second-level SCI.
- PSCCH carries first-level SCI
- first-level SCI is used to schedule second-level SCI and PSSCH. Since SL is a distributed system, all terminals need to correctly decode first-level SCI before decoding second-level SCI and PSSCH.
- the resource position of PSCCH is relatively fixed, and the first-level SCI format information carried is also relatively unique, that is, the terminal does not need to blindly detect the time-frequency resource position where PSCCH is located, nor does it need to blindly detect SCI of different formats.
- PSCCH may exist in each subchannel in each time slot, that is, the time domain starting position of a PSCCH is the second symbol for SL transmission in each time slot, the length is 2 or 3 symbols (determined by the resource pool configuration information), the frequency domain position is the smallest PRB index of each subchannel, the length is at least 10 PRBs (determined by the resource pool configuration information) but does not exceed the size of the subchannel, as shown in Figure 5.
- the frequency resource assignment field and the time resource assignment field in the first-level SCI are used to indicate the frequency domain and time domain resources for transmitting PSSCH, respectively.
- the resource reservation period field is used to indicate the resources for periodic reservation of PSSCH transmission.
- the value of the resource reservation period field is configured by the network device, or preconfigured, or predefined.
- the base station indicates the value of the resource reservation period through RRC signaling.
- the RRC signaling can be determined by the high-level parameter s1 resource reservation period 1 (sl-resourceteserveperiod1).
- the transmission resources of the transmitter of mode 2 resource selection method do not depend on the base station.
- the transmitter selects the transmission resources for communication within the resource selection window according to the results of its own perception window. Assuming that the transmitter triggers resource selection in time slot n, the specific resource steps are as follows, and the selection process is shown in Figure 6.
- Step 1 Determine the candidate resources R x,y in units of one time slot and L subCH consecutive subchannels, and the resource selection window [n+T 1 ,n+T 2 ], where Determined by Table 1, ⁇ SL is the configured subcarrier spacing, and T 1 is selected based on implementation.
- T 2min is configured by the higher layer, if T 2min is less than the remaining PDB (data packet delay), then T 2min ⁇ T 2 ⁇ PDB (data packet delay), and T 2 is selected based on implementation; otherwise T 2 is equal to the remaining PDB.
- Step 2 Determine the perception window Where T 0 is configured by high-level parameters. Determined from Table 2.
- Step 3 Determine the threshold value Th( pi , pj ) of the reference signal received power RSRP.
- the RSRP threshold value is related to the prio TX of the data to be sent and the priority prio RX indicated by the received SCI.
- Th( pi , pj ) is specifically the prio RX +(prio TX -1)*8th threshold value in the RSRP threshold value set configured in the resource pool.
- Step 4 Initialize the available resource set S A , including all time-frequency resources in the resource selection window.
- Step 5 Exclude the following time-frequency resources from SA : the time slots of all periodic resource reservations configured in the resource pool corresponding to the unperceived time slots (transmitted time slots) in the perception window.
- step 5 if the time-frequency resources excluded by SA are less than X% of the total resources in the resource selection window, re-execute the initialization of step 4.
- Step 6 Continue to exclude the following time-frequency resources from SA : the decoding of the received first-level SCI is successful, and the result of RSRP measurement of the PSSCH demodulation reference signal (DMRS) of the time-frequency resources reserved by the received first-level SCI is higher than the RSRP threshold determined in step 3, and the time-frequency resources reserved by the received first-level SCI are within the resource selection window, including the retransmission resources indicated by the first-level SCI and the periodically reserved resources.
- DMRS PSSCH demodulation reference signal
- Step 7 If the remaining resources in SA are less than X% of the total resources in the resource selection window, where the value of X% is configured by the resource pool and is related to prio TX , then the RSRP threshold determined in step 3 is increased by 3 dB each time until the remaining resources in SA are not less than X% of the total resources in the resource selection window, and step 4 is continued.
- a time-frequency resource (r 0 , r 1 , r 2 , ...) is randomly selected in SA for sending data. Before sending, a resource re-evaluation is performed on (r 0 , r 1 , r 2 , ). After the re-evaluation, a preemption detection is performed on the resource (r′ 0 , r′ 1 , r′ 2 , ...) selected from SA .
- the user is in at least time slot
- the UE can perform resource re-evaluation and preemption detection based on the additional triggering before and after the time slot m-T3.
- the method of determining whether (r 0 , r 1 , r 2 , ...) and (r′ 0 , r′ 1 , r′ 2 , ...) need to be excluded is the same as step 7, and one of the following conditions is met:
- the s1 preemption enable ('sl-PreemptionEnable') parameter is not configured to be enabled, and prio pre > prio RX and prio TX > prio pre are satisfied.
- prio pre is configured by the higher layer.
- time slot m is the next time slot to be sent, i.e., time slot m belongs to (r 0 ,r 1 ,r 2 ,...) and (r′ 0 ,r′ 1 ,r′ 2 ,).
- the base station sends CSI-RS.
- the UE measures and evaluates the wireless channel through the received RS and reports the measurement results to the network.
- the network can set appropriate transmission parameters for subsequent downlink transmissions based on these measurement results.
- the CSI-RS of the NR Uu port supports up to 32 different antenna ports, and each antenna port is a channel that needs to be detected. In terms of time-frequency resource occupancy, a single-port CSI-RS occupies only one resource unit RE in a resource block in the frequency domain and a time slot in the time domain.
- the multiplexing method can be code domain multiplexing, frequency domain multiplexing, and time domain multiplexing.
- CSI-RS can be configured for periodic transmission, semi-continuous transmission, or non-periodic transmission, and supports unicast, multicast, and broadcast transmission.
- the SL CSI-RS of the first frequency range (frequency range 1, FR1) is designed based on the CSI-RS of the R15Uu port.
- the SL CSI-RS configuration is selected by the transmitter and provided to the receiver through the PC5-RRC configuration.
- the SL CSI-RS configuration includes the resource mapping mode and the number of antenna ports of the SL CSI-RS.
- the resource mapping of the SL CSI-RS in the PRB is based on the CSI-RS resource mapping mode in NR Uu, which supports up to 2 antenna ports (such as SL in NR V2X can support up to two streams in PSSCH), and the frequency domain density is 1, that is, one CSI-RS is configured on each resource block RB.
- Figure 7 shows the time slot structure of SL, which includes automatic gain control (AGC), PSCCH, PSSCH, DMRS, GAP (guard period), etc.
- SL CSI-RS only supports unicast transmission and is sent with data in the PSSCH area of the transmit time slot. At the same time, it is not transmitted on symbols containing PSCCH, second-level SCI or PSSCH DMRS.
- Each PRB in PSSCH uses the same pattern for SL CSI-RS.
- the number of symbols occupied by each information in the time slot structure shown in Figure 7 is only shown as an example.
- the number of symbols occupied by AGC, PSCCH, PSSCH and GAP can be determined by the second terminal, configured by the network device, pre-configured or pre-defined by the protocol, and this application does not make any specific limitations.
- the transmission time and frequency resources of SL CSI-RS are mainly indicated by the first-level SCI.
- SCI in NR V2X is transmitted in two levels.
- the introduction of the second-level SCI makes the SCI design more flexible, supporting unicast, multicast and broadcast transmission in NR V2X, while LTE V2X only supports broadcast.
- the main advantages of two-level SCI are:
- the first-level SCI has a fixed size that is independent of the transmission type, avoiding blind detection by the receiving end user;
- the first level SCI is carried in the PSCCH at a known possible position within the subchannel
- the first-level SCI indicates the resources of the second-level SCI carried in the PSSCH;
- a second level SCI with different payload sizes depending on the transmission type reduces the complexity of SCI decoding, not only for the transmitter, but also for the perception terminal that only needs to detect and decode the first level SCI to know which resources are reserved by the receiver.
- the first-level SCI in NR V2X is carried on the PSCCH and the second-level SCI is carried on the corresponding PSSCH.
- the PSCCH carries the first-level SCI containing the second-level SCI control information associated with the PSSCH.
- the first-level SCI indicates the frequency resources of the PSSCH carrying the current (re)transmission of the transport block (TB) and the resources reserved for up to two retransmissions of the TB. If the UE reserves resources for semi-static PSSCH, the first-level SCI also indicates the resource reservation period.
- the first-level SCI includes the priority of the associated PSSCH, and the format and size of the second-level SCI.
- the first-level SCI also indicates the modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of the data payload carried in the associated PSSCH.
- MCS modulation and coding scheme
- the DMRS associated with the PSSCH in NR V2X can be carried on different symbols within the PSSCH time slot.
- the PSSCH DMRS can be (pre)configured with multiple time patterns, and the first-level SCI indicates the specific time pattern used by the associated PSSCH.
- the first level SCI also provides the number of ports for the PSSCH DMRS, which can be equal to one or two, which represents the number of layers (i.e., the number of data streams) supported in the PSSCH. Therefore, by utilizing multiple transmit and receive antennas, up to two data streams can be sent in the PSSCH in the NR V2X SL.
- the SCI is divided into two levels, allowing other terminals that are not transmitting receiving terminals to decode only the first level SCI for channel sensing, that is, for determining the resources reserved by other transmissions.
- the second level SCI provides additional control information required by the receiving terminal that needs to transmit.
- the PSSCH carries the second level SCI and a data payload consisting of TBs.
- the second level SCI carries information used to decode the PSSCH and support HARQ feedback and CSI reporting, indicating the layer 1 source identity (identifier, ID) and destination ID of the transmission, representing the physical layer identifier of the transmitter and the intended recipient (receiver) of the TB.
- the layer 1 source ID is used to allow the receiving end to know the identity of the transmitter and then determine the PSFCH of the HARQ feedback.
- the second level SCI also carries a 1-bit new data indicator to specify whether the TB sent in the PSSCH corresponds to a new data transmission or a retransmission.
- the HARQ process ID is also included in the second level SCI to identify the TB.
- the second level SCI also Indicates whether HARQ feedback for PSSCH is enabled or disabled.
- the FR1SL CSI-RS workflow is as follows:
- the transmitter sends the CSI request and SL CSI-RS in the first-level SCI, triggering the receiver of the unicast link to feedback the CSI report.
- the transmitter can configure the receiver's non-periodic CSI reporting.
- the transmitter first sends the SCI, which contains the user ID of the SL CSI-RS, the SL CSI-RS transmission information, including the time-frequency resource information, resource ID, scrambling code ID, etc. of the SL CSI-RS.
- the SCI can also include a time offset to instruct the receiver to send CSI feedback information in a specific subframe or time slot.
- the receiver measures the CSI based on the SL CSI-RS sent by the transmitter, and feeds back the CSI through the PSSCH sent by the receiver to the transmitter.
- the CSI feedback of the receiver is carried in the MAC CE.
- the receiver In order to avoid CSI timeout, the receiver is expected to feed back the CSI report within the maximum time.
- the delay limit is determined by the transmitter and sent to the receiver through PC5-RRC signaling.
- SL distributed system of the FR2 millimeter wave frequency band beam misalignment may occur between the transmitter and the receiver due to sudden channel fluctuations, unexpected obstacle interruptions, terminal rotation, etc.
- beam training based on SL CSI-RS is considered to achieve beam alignment between the transmitter and the receiver.
- the SL CSI-RS in FR1 is unicasted with the data in the PSSCH. Since it is limited by the transmission of the accompanying service data itself, it cannot be independently sent periodically or non-periodically to achieve beam training and calibration. Even if the data is periodic data, the service data period and the SL CSI-RS transmission period are not the same concept. Therefore, there is currently only non-periodic SL CSI-RS with the channel, which poses a challenge to the beam training based on SL CSI-RS in FR2 millimeter wave communication.
- the beam management of the NR Uu interface is based on the extremely flexible CSI-RS framework and the powerful MIMO capability of the base station.
- the reference signal corresponding to CSI-RS is SL CSI-RS.
- SL CSI-RS is a reference signal proprietary to SL. Its basic function is to measure the channel of SL to calculate the rank indicator (RI) and channel quality indicator (CQI) of the channel, and to help the transmitter determine the parameters such as the transmission mode, MCS and code rate.
- the SL CSI-RS on the FR2 band can also realize other functions, such as serving as a reference signal for beam training in SL.
- the terminal-to-terminal (UE-to-UE) beam management in SL should be appropriately changed, especially the transmission beam training process needs to be carried out efficiently. This puts forward new requirements for the transmission method of the SL CSI-RS of the terminal on the FR2 band.
- Beam management is an important technology proposed by 5G NR for FR2 beamforming. It is the process by which base stations and terminals obtain and maintain beam sets for sending and receiving, and then achieve high-gain communication with reasonable beam pairs.
- the current FR2 beam management process is designed for base stations and terminals, that is, the base station first performs coarse beam scanning and the terminal receives.
- both the transmitter and the receiver are terminals, and the beam management process in 5G NR is no longer applicable, and there is no standard support for related technical solutions.
- the method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the scenario of beam training on the FR2 frequency band in a V2X distributed system.
- the scenario of beam scanning at the transmitting end in the distributed system is shown in FIG8 .
- the important elements in the scenario are explained as follows:
- Transmitter UE The information sending entity in V2X SL, taking vehicle UE as an example in the figure.
- Receiving UE The information receiving entity in V2X SL, taking the vehicle UE as an example in the figure.
- Transmit beam refers to the directional radiation pattern of the transmitting UE on a certain antenna port. The figure shows the transmit beams in four directions. Each beam radiates periodically for beam training to achieve beam alignment with the receiving UE.
- each terminal in the SL system is in a peer-to-peer relationship and there is no unified coordination and scheduling by the base station, whether the terminal receives or sends cannot be determined in the distributed system.
- UE-to-UE beam management lacks reference signals for beam training.
- the SL CSI-RS in FR1 must be unicasted with the data in the PSSCH. Since it is limited by the transmission of the accompanying service data itself, it cannot be independently sent periodically or non-periodically to achieve beam training and calibration. Furthermore, even if the data is periodic data, the service period and the SL CSI-RS transmission period are not the same concept. Therefore, there is currently only an accompanying non-periodic reference signal SL CSI-RS, which makes it impossible to perform beam training based on SL CSI-RS on the FR2 frequency band.
- an embodiment of the present application provides a resource indication method.
- the second terminal can send PSCCH to the first terminal.
- the PSCCH can carry SCI, and the SCI can be used to indicate the time-frequency resources of PSSCH.
- the second terminal can send a side reference signal and PSSCH to the first terminal.
- the PSSCH can only carry MAC CE.
- PSCCH, PSSCH and side reference signal are sent in the same time slot. Based on this method, considering the separate structure of the side reference signal and the PSSCH accompanying data, the time slot structure of only MAC CE and side reference signal is filled in PSSCH, as shown in Figure 9.
- the above-mentioned time slot structure can be used for transmission beam training based on SL CSI-RS on the FR2 frequency band, which ensures the stripping of the side reference signal and the accompanying data in the PSSCH, while avoiding the transmission of a separate (standalone) side reference signal, while ensuring the integrity and consistency with the existing SL time slot structure.
- the PSSCH may also only carry the MAC CE and the second-level SCI; the SCI carried in the PSCCH is used to indicate the time-frequency resources of the PSSCH; the second-level SCI carried by the PSSCH is used to indicate the decoding of the PSSCH.

- AGC, PSCCH, PSSCH and the side reference signal are sent in the same time slot.
- the GAP shown in FIG9 may be a GAP between two transmission time slots. Based on the time slot structure shown in FIG9, only MAC CE and the side reference signal may be filled in the PSSCH, which ensures that the side reference signal and the accompanying data in the PSSCH are stripped while avoiding the transmission of the standalone side reference signal.
- the embodiment shown in FIG. 10 may further include the following operation S1000 .
- the second terminal selects the time domain resource set of SL CSI-RS.
- the time domain resource set may include multiple time slots, and the interval between two adjacent time slots is the same. It should be noted that two adjacent time slots may refer to two logically continuous time slots. It should be noted that when the second terminal selects the time domain resource set in S1000, it can be implemented with reference to the embodiment shown in Figure 6, which will not be repeated here.
- the above-mentioned SCI can also be used to indicate the time-frequency resources of the side reference signal.
- the SCI indicates the time domain resource set of the side reference signal.
- the time domain resource set can be the time domain resource set selected by the second terminal in S1000.
- the side reference signal is SL CSI RS as an example for explanation.
- the parameter value N rsv_period of the resource reservation period field in the SCI is used to indicate the period of the service data carried by the PSSCH.
- the threshold value defaults to 0.
- N rsv_period when selecting resources for the time slot where the SL CSI-RS is located, it can be designed to use N rsv_period to indicate the period of the SL CSI-RS, as shown in Figure 11.

Abstract
La présente demande se rapporte au domaine technique des communications sans fil, et propose un procédé et un appareil d'indication de ressource, destinés à être utilisés pour indiquer une ressource temps-fréquence et transmettre un signal de référence de liaison latérale. Dans le procédé, un second terminal envoie un PSCCH à un premier terminal, le PSCCH transportant des SCI utilisées pour indiquer une ressource temps-fréquence d'un PSSCH. Le second terminal envoie un signal de référence de liaison latérale et le PSSCH au premier terminal, le PSSCH transportant uniquement un MAC CE. Dans ce qui précède, le signal de référence de liaison latérale est utilisé pour l'apprentissage de faisceau. Le PSCCH, le PSSCH et le signal de référence de liaison latérale sont envoyés dans le même créneau temporel. La solution décrite peut être utilisée pour un apprentissage de faisceau de transmission sur la base du signal de référence de liaison latérale dans la bande de fréquence FR2, ce qui assure le décapage d'un signal de référence de liaison latérale et de données associées à un canal dans un PSSCH, et évite la transmission d'un signal de référence de liaison latérale autonome.
