Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method and device for determining a resource occupation position, a user equipment and a storage medium, which relates to the field of communication technology. The method includes: receiving position configuration information including a configuration status of a base station regarding a candidate position for transmitting a synchronization signal block; determining valid configuration information in the position configuration information; and determining, according to the valid configuration information, the resource occupation position in all candidate positions in a transmission window of the synchronization signal block, the candidate positions being positions for transmitting the synchronization signal block.

Claims (48)

1. A method for determining a resource occupation position, comprising:

receiving position configuration information from a base station, wherein the position configuration information comprises a configuration status of a candidate position for transmitting a synchronization signal block;

determining valid configuration information in the position configuration information; and

determining, according to the valid configuration information, the resource occupation position in all candidate positions in a transmission window of the synchronization signal block, wherein the candidate positions are positions for transmitting the synchronization signal block,

wherein the method further comprises:

obtaining a quasi co-location parameter, wherein the quasi co-location parameter is configured to determine a quasi co-location relationship between the candidate positions in the transmission window,

wherein determining the valid configuration information in the position configuration information comprises:

determining the valid configuration information in the position configuration information according to the quasi co-location parameter.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the position configuration information indicates a group of candidate positions with a number being K, and the quasi co-location parameter is Q, where K and Q are positive integers, and

determining the valid configuration information in the position configuration information according to the quasi co-location parameter comprises:

using first Q candidate positions in the group of candidate positions as the valid configuration information in response to Q being less than or equal to K.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the position configuration information is represented by a bitmap, each bit in the bitmap corresponds to a candidate position, one of 0 or 1 in the bitmap represents the candidate position configurable for transmitting the synchronization signal block, and the other one of 0 or 1 in the bitmap represents the candidate position non-configurable for transmitting the synchronization signal block.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein a length of the bitmap represents the number of the candidate positions in the group of candidate positions.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the position configuration information is used as the valid configuration information.

6. A user equipment, comprising:

a processor;

a transceiver; and

a memory having one or more programs stored thereon that, when being executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform:

controlling the transceiver to receive position configuration information from a base station, wherein the position configuration information comprises a configuration status of a candidate position for transmitting a synchronization signal block;

determining valid configuration information in the position configuration information; and

determining, according to the valid configuration information, resource occupation position in all candidate positions in a transmission window of the synchronization signal block, wherein the candidate positions are positions for transmitting the synchronization signal block,

wherein the one or more programs, when being executed by the processor, cause the processor to further perform:

controlling the transceiver to obtain a quasi co-location parameter, wherein the quasi co-location parameter is configured to determine a quasi co-location relationship between the candidate positions in the transmission window,

wherein determining the valid configuration information in the position configuration information comprises:

determining the valid configuration information in the position configuration information according to the quasi co-location parameter.

7. The user equipment according to claim 6 , wherein the position configuration information indicates a group of candidate positions with a number being K, and the quasi co-location parameter is Q, where K and Q are positive integers, and

determining the valid configuration information in the position configuration information according to the quasi co-location parameter comprises:

using first Q candidate positions in the group of candidate positions as the valid configuration information in response to Q being less than or equal to K.

8. The user equipment according to claim 7 , wherein the position configuration information is represented by a bitmap, each bit in the bitmap corresponds to a candidate position, one of 0 or 1 in the bitmap represents the candidate position configurable for transmitting the synchronization signal block, and the other one of 0 or 1 in the bitmap represents the candidate position non-configurable for transmitting the synchronization signal block.

9. The user equipment according to claim 8 , wherein a length of the bitmap represents the number of the candidate positions in the group of candidate positions.

10. The user equipment according to claim 6 , wherein the position configuration information is used as the valid configuration information.

11. A base station, comprising:

a processor;

a transceiver; and

a memory having one or more programs stored thereon that, when being executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform:

controlling the transceiver to transmit position configuration information to a user equipment,

wherein the position configuration information comprises a configuration status of a candidate position for transmitting a synchronization signal block,

wherein the position configuration information comprises valid configuration information, and resource occupation position in all candidate positions in a transmission window of the synchronization signal block is determined according to the valid configuration information, and

wherein the candidate positions are positions for transmitting the synchronization signal block,

wherein the one or more programs, when being executed by the processor, cause the processor to further perform:

controlling the transceiver to transmit a quasi co-location parameter to the user equipment,

wherein the quasi co-location parameter is configured to determine a quasi co-location relationship between the candidate positions in the transmission window, and

wherein the valid configuration information in the position configuration information is determined according to the quasi co-location parameter.

12. The base station according to claim 11 , the position configuration information indicates a group of candidate positions with a number being K, and the quasi co-location parameter is Q, where K and Q are positive integers, and

wherein first Q candidate positions in the group of candidate positions are used as the valid configuration information in response to Q being less than or equal to K.

13. The base station according to claim 12 , wherein the position configuration information is represented by a bitmap, each bit in the bitmap corresponds to a candidate position, one of 0 or 1 in the bitmap represents the candidate position configurable for transmitting the synchronization signal block, and the other one of 0 or 1 in the bitmap represents the candidate position non-configurable for transmitting the synchronization signal block.

14. The base station according to claim 13 , wherein a length of the bitmap represents the number of the candidate positions in the group of candidate positions.

15. The base station according to claim 11 , wherein the position configuration information is used as the valid configuration information.
