Abstract

Physical sidelink feedback methods and apparatuses, and storage media are provided. The physical sidelink feedback method includes: receiving one or more code block groups CBGs sent by a second user equipment to a first user equipment, and sending HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs to the second user equipment.

Claims (86)

1 . A physical sidelink feedback method, performed by a first user equipment, comprising:

receiving one or more code block groups (CBGs) sent by a second user equipment to the first user equipment, and determining a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resource mapped by a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmission resource, wherein the PSFCH resource is used to send hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback for the one or more CBGs;

sending, based on the PSFCH resource, the HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs to the second user equipment;

wherein the PSFCH resource comprises: different PSFCH resources used for the HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs, wherein the PSFCH resource mapped by the PSSCH transmission resource is determined based on a number of one or more CBGs and a time domain index and a subchannel index where a PSSCH is located, and the PSFCH resource mapped by the PSSCH transmission resource comprises physical resource blocks (PRBs) consistent with the number of the CBGs; or, a same PSFCH resource multiplexed for the HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs.

2 . The physical sidelink feedback method according to claim 1 , wherein sending the HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs to the second user equipment comprises:

sending the HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs to the second user equipment through a first PSFCH format; and

wherein the first PSFCH format comprises a format that supports to carry one or more HARQ feedback results of the one or more CBGs.

3 . The physical sidelink feedback method according to claim 2 , wherein N bits are transmitted in the first PSFCH format, the N is the number of the CBGs, and each bit represents a HARQ feedback result corresponding to one CBG.

4 . The physical sidelink feedback method according to claim 1 , wherein an index of the PSFCH resource mapped by the PSSCH transmission resource satisfies a following formula:

PSFCH

5 . The physical sidelink feedback method according to claim 1 , wherein multiplexing the same PSFCH resource for the HARQ feedback of the one or more CBGs comprises:

sending a base sequence using the PSFCH resource; and

wherein the base sequence indicates different HARQ feedback results of the one or more CBGs after cycle shift.

6 . The physical sidelink feedback method according to claim 1 , wherein the number of CBGs is determined based on a configuration of a resource pool, and a CBG configuration of the resource pool indicates a fixed number of CBGs supported by the resource pool.

7 . A physical sidelink feedback method, performed by a second user equipment, comprising:

sending one or more code block groups (CBGs) to a first user equipment; and

receiving, based on a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resource mapped by a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmission resource, hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback sent by the first user equipment for the one or more CBGs; and

wherein the PSFCH resource comprises: different PSFCH resources used for the HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs, wherein the PSFCH resource mapped by the PSSCH transmission resource is determined based on a number of one or more CBGs and a time domain index and a subchannel index where a PSSCH is located, and the PSFCH resource mapped by the PSSCH transmission resource comprises physical resource blocks (PRBs) consistent with the number of the CBGs; or, a same PSFCH resource multiplexed for the HARQ feedback for the one or more CBGs.

8 . The physical sidelink feedback method according to claim 7 , wherein receiving the HARQ feedback sent by the first user equipment for the one or more CBGs comprises:

receiving the HARQ feedback sent by the first user equipment for the one or more CBGs through a first PSFCH format;

wherein the first PSFCH format comprises a format that supports to carry one or more HARQ feedback results of the one or more CBGs.
