Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for transmitting and receiving uplink signals. The method for transmitting includes: receiving by a terminal equipment a first signal transmitted by a network device, the first signal being at least used for the terminal equipment to determine whether to perform channel detection and/or how to perform channel detection before transmitting a second signal; and transmitting the second signal by the terminal equipment to the network device by using an uplink resource.

Claims (40)

1 . An apparatus for transmitting an uplink signal, configured in a terminal equipment, the apparatus comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a radio resource control (RRC) message;

a transmitter configured to transmit an uplink transmission; and

a processor configured to:

control, when the received radio resource control message does not include first information, to not perform channel access procedure for transmitting the uplink transmission, and

control, when the received radio resource control message includes the first information, to performs channel access procedure for transmitting the uplink transmission.

2 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the radio resource control message comprises broadcasted radio resource control message and/or dedicated radio resource control message for the terminal equipment, and the broadcasted radio resource control message comprises system information block.

3 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first information is cell-specific or UE-specific.

4 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first information is information per cell.

5 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

control, when the radio resource control message does not include the first information for a cell, the terminal equipment does not perform channel access procedure for transmitting uplink transmission(s) of the cell, and

control, when radio resource control message includes the first information for the cell, the terminal equipment performs channel access procedure for transmitting uplink transmission(s) of the cell.

6 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, the first information is for a cell operating in frequency range from 52.6 GHz to 71 GHz.

7 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the radio resource control message includes second information used to indicate an operating band of a cell, the second information indicating a band index of the operating band of the cell, the operating band being identified by the band index is pre-defined as a licensed band or an unlicensed band.

8 . The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein in a case where the operating band is a licensed band, the first information for the cell is absent; or,

in a case where the operating band is an unlicensed band, the first information for the cell is optionally present.

9 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a channel access type of the channel access procedure is predefined, or a channel access type of the channel access procedure is indicated by third information or fourth information.

10 . The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein, the third information is included in a radio resource control signaling or downlink control information or random access response that schedules the uplink transmission.

11 . The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein, the fourth information configures channel access types which are capable of being indicated by the third information, and the fourth information is carried by a radio resource control signaling.

12 . The apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein, the channel access types include a type with channel sensing and a type without channel sensing.

13 . The apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein, the fourth information is per downlink control information format.

14 . The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein, in a case where the radio resource control message does not include the first information for a cell, the fourth information for downlink control information used to schedule the uplink transmission of the cell is absent, and/or, a radio resource control signaling or downlink control information or random access response that schedules the uplink transmission does not include the third information.

15 . The apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein, in a case where the radio resource control message includes the first information for a cell, the fourth information for downlink control information used to schedule the uplink transmission of the cell is present.

16 . The apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein, in a case where only one channel access type is configured by the fourth information, the channel access type of the channel access procedure is indicated by the fourth information and a radio resource control signaling or downlink control information or random access response that schedules the uplink transmission does not include the third information.

17 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, the uplink transmission is PRACH, PUCCH, PUSCH, or SRS.

18 . The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, the transmitter is further configured to transmit measurement result; wherein the measurement result comprises received signal strength per beam.

19 . An apparatus for receiving an uplink signal, configured in a network device, the apparatus comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit a radio resource control (RRC) message; and

a receiver configured to receive an uplink transmission transmitted by a terminal equipment by using an uplink resource; wherein,

when the received radio resource control message does not include first information, the terminal equipment does not perform channel access procedure for transmitting the uplink transmission, and

when the received radio resource control message includes the first information, the terminal equipment performs channel access procedure for transmitting the uplink transmission.

20 . A communication system, comprising:

a network device configured to:

transmit a radio resource control (RRC) message signal, and

receive an uplink transmission; and

a terminal equipment configured to:

receive the radio resource control message signal, transmit the uplink transmission,

wherein,

control, when the received radio resource control message does not include first information, to not perform channel access procedure for transmitting the uplink transmission, and

control, when the received radio resource control message includes the first information, to performs channel access procedure for transmitting the uplink transmission.
