Abstract

Provided are methods and apparatuses for transmitting and receiving control signaling and for determining information. The method include determining second information according to first information, where the second information includes at least one of the following: the number N of bits used in first control signaling to notify a first transmission parameter, a correspondence mapping table between an index value referenced by the first transmission parameter in the first control signaling and the value of the first transmission parameter, the type of the first transmission parameter notified by a predetermined indication field in the first control signaling, or position information of the bits used in the first control signaling to notify the first transmission parameter; and where the first information includes a relationship between a transmission time interval between the first control signaling and a first signal and a predetermined threshold K, where N and K are non-negative integers; and transmitting the first control signaling.

Claims (19)

1. A method for receiving control signaling and for determining information, comprising:

receiving a first signal and a second signal,

wherein the first signal comprises a downlink data channel signal and the second signal comprises a downlink control channel signal scheduling the downlink data channel signal,

wherein a first time interval is less than a predetermined threshold X 1 , the first time interval is between the first signal and the second signal,

determining a quasi co-location (QCL) parameter of the first signal based on a QCL parameter of the second signal, comprising:

acquiring the QCL parameter of the first signal according to a QCL parameter of a specified control resource set (CORESET) wherein the specified CORESET is a CORESET having a minimum CORESET identification (CORESET ID) in a predetermined component carrier (CC) in a time unit closest to the first signal, the predetermined CC is a CC where the first signal is located; and

wherein the first signal and the second signal at least overlap partially in a time-domain and a spatial receiver parameter of the first signal is different from a spatial receiver parameter of the second signal, wherein a priority of the second signal is higher than a priority of the first signal.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first signal and the second signal are received in different CCs.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state pool associated the first signal contains at least one TCI state, wherein a spatial receiver parameter is configured in the at least one TCI state.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein QCL parameters of the downlink data channel signal across multiple slots keep unchanged.

5. A apparatus for receiving control signaling and for determining information, the apparatus comprising a processor, the processor being configured to:

receive a first signal and a second signal,

wherein the first signal comprises a downlink data channel signal and the second signal comprises a downlink control channel signal scheduling the downlink data channel signal,

wherein a first time interval is less than a predetermined threshold X 1 , the first time interval is between the first signal and the second signal;

determine a quasi co-location (QCL) parameter of the first signal based on a QCL parameter of the second signal, by acquiring the QCL parameter of the first signal according to a QCL parameter of a specified control resource set (CORESET) wherein the specified CORESET is a CORESET having a minimum CORESET identification (CORESET ID) in a predetermined component carrier (CC) in a time unit closest to the first signal, the predetermined CC is a CC where the first signal is located; and

wherein the first signal and the second signal at least overlap partially in a time-domain and a spatial receiver parameter of the first signal is different from a spatial receiver parameter of the second signal, wherein a priority of the second signal is higher than a priority of the first signal.

6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the first signal and the second signal are received in different CCs.

7. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state pool associated the first signal contains at least one TCI state, wherein a spatial receiver parameter is configured in the at least one TCI state.

8. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein QCL parameters of the downlink data channel signal across multiple slots keep unchanged.
