Abstract

A method for determining a sidelink transmission resource, a terminal device, and a network device are provided. The method includes determining a third transmission resource that includes a transmission resource for transmitting a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH), and determining a second transmission resource in the third transmission resource. The second transmission resource includes a time-domain resource the same as and/or adjacent to a time-domain resource for a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) of the PSSCH. The second transmission resource is used for transmitting second sidelink control information (SCI). The third transmission resource further includes a first transmission resource for transmitting first SCI.

Claims (50)

1. A method for determining a sidelink transmission resource, comprising:

determining a third transmission resource, the third transmission resource comprising a transmission resource for transmitting a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH);

mapping the second SCI onto the second transmission resource in an order of first frequency domain and then time domain;

wherein the first SCI comprises a first information field, wherein

in a case where the first information field is a first value, the first information field indicates that a frequency-domain resource of the second transmission resource is adjacent to a frequency-domain resource of the first transmission resource, and in a case where the first information field is a second value, the first information field indicates that the frequency-domain resource of the second transmission resource is not adjacent to the frequency-domain resource of the first transmission resource, wherein the second value is different from the first value; and

in a case where the first information field is a third value, the first information field indicates that a time-domain resource of the second transmission resource is adjacent to a time-domain resource of the first transmission resource, wherein the third value is different from the first value and the second value, and in a case where the first information field is a fourth value, the first information field indicates that the time-domain resource of the second transmission resource is not adjacent to the time-domain resource of the first transmission resource, wherein the fourth value is different from the first value, the second value and the third value.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second transmission resource comprising the time-domain resource the same as and/or adjacent to the time-domain resource for the DMRS comprises that the second transmission resource comprises a time-domain resource the same as and/or adjacent to a first time-domain resource for the DMRS.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first SCI comprises a second information field, wherein the second information field is used for determining a size of the second transmission resource.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the second information field comprises at least one of:

a format of the second SCI; or

a coding rate for the second SCI.

5. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

obtaining a first parameter,

wherein determining the second transmission resource in the third transmission resource comprises:

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein obtaining the first parameter comprises at least one of:

obtaining the first parameter according to pre-configured information or preset information;

receiving configuration information from a network device and obtaining the first parameter according to the configuration information; or

receiving the first SCI and obtaining the first parameter according to the first SCI.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation is used for the second SCI, and/or the first SCI indicates a coding rate for the second SCI.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein a coding rate for the second SCI is the same as a coding rate for the PSSCH.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second transmission resource and the first transmission resource do not overlap.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein

the first SCI comprises a third information field, wherein the third information field comprises information for sensing; and
