Abstract

Embodiments provide an information processing method and a terminal device, so that a network device can indicate a reserved resource, and the terminal device can process the reserved resource. In these embodiments, configuration information of a reserved resource sent by a network device can be received by a terminal device. The terminal device can determine, based on the configuration information of the reserved resource, that a resource type of the reserved resource is a first-type reserved resource or a second-type reserved resource. The terminal device can determine a radio frequency processing manner on the reserved resource based on the resource type.

Claims (54)

1. An information processing method, comprising:

receiving, by a terminal device, configuration information of a reserved resource sent by a network device;

determining, by the terminal device based on the configuration information of the reserved resource, that a resource type of the reserved resource is a first-type reserved resource or a second-type reserved resource;

determining, by the terminal device, a radio frequency processing manner on the reserved resource based on the resource type;

receiving, by the terminal device, phase configuration information sent by the network device; and

determining, by the terminal device, based on the phase configuration information, whether an adjacent transmission phase is continuous.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein receiving, by the terminal device, configuration information of a reserved resource sent by the network device comprises:

receiving, by the terminal device, downlink control information (DCI) sent by the network device; and, wherein

determining, by the terminal device based on the configuration information of the reserved resource, that the resource type of the reserved resource is a first-type reserved resource or a second-type reserved resource comprises:

parsing, by the terminal device, a first field in the DCI;

when a state of the first field is a third state, determining that the reserved resource is the first-type reserved resource; and

when a state of the first field is a fourth state, determining that the reserved resource is the second-type reserved resource.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first-type reserved resource comprises a radio frequency (RF)-level reserved resource, and the second-type reserved resource comprises a baseband BB-level reserved resource; or

the first-type reserved resource comprises a high interference-type reserved

resource, and the second-type reserved resource comprises a low interference-type reserved resource.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein before the receiving, by the terminal device, the configuration information of the reserved resource that is sent by a network device, the method further comprises:

reporting, by the terminal device, capability information of the terminal device to the network device.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the capability information of the terminal device comprises at least one of the following information: information about a quantity of radio frequency filters supported by the terminal device, information about a center frequency of a radio frequency filter, information about a bandwidth supported by a radio frequency filter, or information about whether the terminal device has a frequency domain windowing capability.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

receiving, by the terminal device, configuration information for shutdown sent by the network device; and

determining, by the terminal device based on the configuration information for shutdown, whether the network device performs a shutdown behavior.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the reserved resource is a time-frequency resource reserved by the network device for another terminal device having a different device type from the terminal device.

8. A terminal device, wherein the terminal device comprises a processor, memory, a transmitter, and a receiver, wherein

the receiver is configured to receive configuration information of a reserved resource sent by a network device;

the memory is configured to store data and instructions of the receiver and the processor; and

the processor is configured to:

determine, based on the configuration information of the reserved resource, that a resource type of the reserved resource is a first-type reserved resource or a second-type reserved resource; and

determine a radio frequency processing manner on the reserved resource based on the resource type, wherein

the receiver is further configured to receive phase configuration information sent by the network device; and

the processor is further configured to determine, based on the phase configuration information, whether an adjacent transmission phase is continuous.

9. The terminal device according to claim 8 , wherein the receiver is specifically configured to receive radio resource control (RRC) signaling sent by the network device; and

the processor is configured to:

parse a first information element (IE) in the RRC signaling;

when a state of the first IE is a first state, determine that the reserved resource is the first-type reserved resource; and

when a state of the first IE is a second state, determine that the reserved resource is the second-type reserved resource.

10. The terminal device according to claim 8 , wherein the receiver is configured to receive downlink control information (DCI) sent by the network device; and

the processor is configured to:

parse a first field in the DCI;

when a state of the first field is a third state, determine that the reserved resource is the first-type reserved resource; and

when a state of the first field is a fourth state, determine that the reserved resource is the second-type reserved resource.

11. The terminal device according to claim 8 , wherein

the first-type reserved resource stored in the memory comprises a radio frequency (RF)-level reserved resource, and the second-type reserved resource comprises a baseband BB-level reserved resource; or

the first-type reserved resource comprises a high interference-type reserved resource, and the second-type reserved resource comprises a low interference-type reserved resource.

12. The terminal device according to claim 8 , wherein the transmitter is configured to: before the receiver receives the configuration information of the reserved resource sent by the network device, report capability information of the terminal device to the network device.

13. The terminal device according to claim 12 , wherein the capability information of the terminal device stored in the memory comprises at least one of the following information: information about a quantity of radio frequency filters supported by the terminal device, information about a center frequency of a radio frequency filter, information about a bandwidth supported by a radio frequency filter, or information about whether the terminal device has a frequency domain windowing capability.

14. The terminal device according to claim 8 , wherein the receiver is further configured to receive configuration information for shutdown sent by the network device; and

the processor is further configured to determine, based on the configuration information for shutdown, whether the network device performs a shutdown behavior.

15. The terminal device according to claim 8 , wherein the reserved resource stored in the memory is a time-frequency resource that is reserved by the network device for another terminal device having a different device type from the terminal device.

16. The method according to claim 1 , wherein receiving, by the terminal device, configuration information of a reserved resource sent by the network device comprises:

receiving, by the terminal device, radio resource control (RRC) signaling sent by the network device; and, wherein

determining, by the terminal device based on the configuration information of the reserved resource, that the resource type of the reserved resource is the first-type reserved resource or the second-type reserved resource comprises:

parsing, by the terminal device, a first information element (IE) in the RRC signaling;

when a state of the first IE is a first state, determining that the reserved resource is the first-type reserved resource; and

when a state of the first IE is a second state, determining, by the terminal device, that the reserved resource is the second-type reserved resource.
