Abstract

A method for determining a channel resource includes that: determining a target Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resource set in accordance with a total number of Uplink Control Information (UCI) bit for uplink transmission; and obtaining a target PUCCH resource from the target PUCCH resource set. The total number of the UCI bit includes a total number of a first part of information bit and a maximum value in a value range, with multiple values, of a number of a second part of information bit. A UCI corresponding to the total number of the UCI bit includes a first part of information and a second part of information.

Claims (35)

1. An apparatus in wireless communication, comprising a network interface, a memory, and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to run a computer program stored in the memory to:

determine a target Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resource set from at least one candidate PUCCH resource set in accordance with a number of Uplink Control Information (UCI) bit for uplink transmission;

obtain a target PUCCH resource from the target PUCCH resource set; and

control the network interface to transmit a subset of a UCI corresponding to the number of the UCI bit in the target PUCCH resource in the target PUCCH resource set,

wherein the number of the UCI bit comprises: a number of a first part of information bit and a value in a value range, with multiple values, of a number of a second part of information bit, and the processor is configured to run the computer program stored in the memory to:

when a total number of the first part of information bit and a maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is less than or equal to an upper limit of a bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set, determine the target PUCCH resource set from the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set based on the total number of the first part of information bit and the maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit;

when the total number of the first part of information bit and the maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is more than the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set and a total number of the first part of information bit and a minimum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is less than or equal to the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set: determine the target PUCCH resource set from the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set based on the total number of the first part of information bit and the minimum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit; and

wherein the UCI corresponding to the number of the UCI bit comprises: a first part of information and a second part of information.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein

the first part of information comprises a first UCI, and the first UCI comprises at least one of: an Acknowledgment (ACK)/Negative Acknowledgment (NACK), a Scheduling Request (SR) or a part 1 Channel State Information (CSI); and

the second part of information comprises a second UCI, and the second UCI comprises a part 2 CSI.

3. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the first part of information further comprises: a check code of the UCI.

4. A method for determining a channel resource, comprising:

determining a target Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resource set from at least one candidate PUCCH resource set in accordance with a number of Uplink Control Information (UCI) bit for uplink transmission;

obtaining a target PUCCH resource from the target PUCCH resource set; and

transmitting a subset of a UCI corresponding to the number of the UCI bit in the target PUCCH resource in the target PUCCH resource set,

wherein the number of the UCI bit comprises: a number of a first part of information bit and a value in a value range, with multiple values, of a number of a second part of information bit, wherein

the total number of the determining the target PUCCH resource set from the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set in accordance with the number of UCI bit for uplink transmission comprises:

when a total number of the first part of information bit and a maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is less than or equal to an upper limit of a bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set, determining the target PUCCH resource set from the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set based on the total number of the first part of information bit and the maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit

when the total number of the first part of information bit and the maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is more than the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set and a total number of the first part of information bit and a minimum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is less than or equal to the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set:

determining the target PUCCH resource set from the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set based on the total number of the first part of information bit and the minimum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit; and

wherein the UCI corresponding to the total number of the UCI bit comprises: a first part of information and a second part of information.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein

the first part of information comprises a first UCI, and the first UCI comprises at least one of: an Acknowledgment (ACK)/Negative Acknowledgment (NACK), a Scheduling Request (SR) or a part 1 Channel State Information (CSI); and

the second part of information comprises a second UCI, and the second UCI comprises a part 2 CSI.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first part of information further comprises: a check code of the UCI.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein determining the target PUCCH resource set comprises:

if the total number of the first part of information bit and the maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is more than the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set and the total number of the first part of information bit and the minimum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is more than the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set, and if the number of the first part of information bit is more than the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set:

determining the set capable of carrying a largest bit length in the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set as the target PUCCH resource set.

8. The method of claim 4 , wherein determining the target PUCCH resource set comprises:

if the total number of the first part of information bit and the maximum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is more than the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set, the total number of the first part of information bit and the minimum value in the value range of the number of the second part of information bit is more than the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set, and if the number of the first part of information bit is less than or equal to the upper limit of the bit length that can be carried by the at least one candidate PUCCH resource set:
