Uplink transmission method and apparatus
An uplink transmission method and apparatus. The method includes: calculating a length of cyclic prefix extension according to a length of symbols of a number of a predetermined value preceding a first symbol of uplink transmission, or calculating a length of cyclic prefix extension according to a predetermined value and a predefined symbol length, by a terminal equipment; and transmitting the cyclic prefix extension and the uplink transmission.
1. An uplink transmission apparatus, comprising:
a receiver configured to receive indication information used for indicating a terminal equipment to transmit an uplink transmission, the indication information indicating the terminal equipment to transmit the uplink transmission according to an integer parameter, the integer parameter being used for calculating a duration of cyclic prefix extension preceding a first symbol of the uplink transmission; and
processor circuitry configured to, in a case where a value of the integer parameter is not configured or the uplink transmission is for contention-based random access (CBRA), calculate the duration of the cyclic prefix extension according to the value of the integer parameter determined according to timing advance and transmit the cyclic prefix extension and the uplink transmission.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the integer parameter is C2, or C3;
the indication information comprises: random access response (RAR), or downlink control information.
3. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a determined value of the integer parameter makes the duration of the cyclic prefix extension larger than or equal to 0, and/or, shorter than a duration of one symbol preceding the first symbol of the uplink transmission.
4. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the receiver is further configured to receive first higher-layer signaling, the first higher-layer signaling being used to indicate a value of the integer parameter and being UE specific.
5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the timing advance is timing advance indicated in a random access response.
6. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the indication information is the random access response, and the timing advance is timing advance indicated in the indication information, or
the indication information is downlink control information having a downlink control information format 0_0 and scrambled by using a TC-RNTI, and the timing advance is timing advance indicated in the random access response to which the indication information corresponds.
7. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the indication information is a random access response or downlink control information, and the timing advance is timing advance maintained by the terminal equipment.
8. An apparatus for receiving uplink transmission, comprising:
a transmitter configured to transmit indication information used for indicating a terminal equipment to transmit an uplink transmission, the indication information indicating the terminal equipment to transmit the uplink transmission according to an integer parameter, the integer parameter being used for calculating a duration of cyclic prefix extension preceding a first symbol of the uplink transmission; and
a receiver configured to receive the cyclic prefix extension and the uplink transmission;
wherein, in a case where a value of the integer parameter is not configured or the uplink transmission is for contention-based random access (CBRA), the duration of the cyclic prefix extension is calculated by the terminal equipment according to the value of the integer parameter determined according to timing advance.
