Abstract

A signal processing method, a device, and a system are provided, to reduce noise interference generated by a repeater. The method includes a first device that determines a first time domain resource position for transmitting a first signal and sends first control signaling to a second device at or before the start position of the first time domain resource position. The second device receives the first control signaling and enables a signal amplification function based on the received first control signaling.

Claims (58)

1. A signal processing method, wherein the method comprises:

determining, by a first device, a first time domain resource position for transmitting a first signal; and

sending, by the first device, first control signaling to a second device at or before a start position of the first time domain resource position, wherein the first control signaling is used to enable a signal amplification function of the second device;

wherein the determining, by the first device, the first time domain resource position for transmitting the first signal comprises:

receiving, by the first device, a second signal from a network device, wherein the second signal comprises information indicating the first time domain resource position; and

parsing, by the first device, the second signal by using a first radio network temporary identifier, to obtain the first time domain resource position, wherein the first radio network temporary identifier is a radio network identifier used by a first remote terminal device to parse the second signal, and the first remote terminal device is a terminal device that receives the second signal.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the second signal is a second downlink control message carried on a second physical downlink control channel, and the first signal is first uplink data carried on a first physical uplink shared channel;

the second signal is a random access response (RAR), and the first signal is a message in a random access process; or

the second signal is second downlink data carried on a second physical downlink shared channel, and the first signal is a third downlink control message carried on a third physical downlink control channel.

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

determining, by the first device, a first common search space or a first terminal-specific search space corresponding to a second time domain resource position for transmitting the second signal; and

determining, by the first device, the first radio network temporary identifier based on the first common search space or the first terminal-specific search space and a prestored mapping relationship between the first radio network temporary identifier and the first common search space or the first terminal-specific search space.

4. A signal processing method, wherein the method comprises:

determining, by a third device, a first time domain resource position for transmitting a first signal; and

enabling, by the third device, a signal amplification function of the third device at or before a start position of the first time domain resource position;

wherein the determining, by the third device, the first time domain resource position for transmitting the first signal comprises:

receiving, by the third device, a second signal from a network device, wherein the second signal comprises information indicating the first time domain resource position; and

parsing, by the third device, the second signal by using a first radio network temporary identifier, to obtain the first time domain resource position, wherein the first radio network temporary identifier is a radio network identifier used by a first remote terminal device to parse the second signal, and the first remote terminal device is a terminal device that receives the second signal.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the second signal is a first downlink control message carried on a first physical downlink control channel, and the first signal is first downlink data carried on a first physical downlink shared channel;

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the method further comprises:

determining, by the third device, a first common search space or a first terminal-specific search space corresponding to a second time domain resource position for transmitting the second signal; and

determining, by the third device, the first radio network temporary identifier based on the first common search space or the first terminal-specific search space and a prestored mapping relationship between the first radio network temporary identifier and the first common search space or the first terminal-specific search space.

7. A device comprising:
