METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CONFIGURING REPEATER
A network controlled repeater (NCR) includes: MT processor circuitry configured to receive time division duplex (TDD) configuration information from a network device; and forwarding processor circuitry configured to perform to not forwarding on a first flexible time unit.
1 . A network controlled repeater (NCR), comprising:
MT processor circuitry configured to receive time division duplex (TDD) configuration information from a network device; and
forwarding processor circuitry configured to perform to not forwarding on a first flexible time unit.
2 . The network controlled repeater according to claim 1 , wherein,
a time-domain resource configured by the time division duplex configuration information comprises at least one of the following time units: a downlink time unit, a flexible time unit, and an uplink time unit.
3 . The network controlled repeater according to claim 2 , wherein,
the first flexible time unit comprises at least a part of the flexible time unit in the time division duplex configuration.
4 . The network controlled repeater according to claim 2 , wherein,
the forwarding processor circuitry performs downlink forwarding on the downlink time unit;
the forwarding processor circuitry performs uplink forwarding on the uplink time unit.
5 . The network controlled repeater according to claim 4 , wherein,
the uplink forwarding comprising forwarding a channel and/or a signal transmitted by a terminal equipment to the network device,
the downlink forwarding comprising forwarding a channel and/or a signal transmitted by the network device to the terminal equipment.
6 . The network controlled repeater according to claim 1 , wherein,
the time division duplex configuration comprises semi-static time division duplex configuration and/or dynamic time division duplex configuration,
wherein the semi-static time division duplex configuration is indicated by at least one of RRC signaling, MAC layer signaling and physical layer signaling, and the dynamic time division duplex configuration is indicated by at least one of RRC signaling, MAC layer signaling and physical layer signaling.
7 . The network controlled repeater according to claim 6 , wherein,
the semi-static time division duplex configuration comprises cell-common time division duplex configuration and/or repeater-dedicated time division duplex configuration,
the repeater-dedicated time division duplex configuration is configured only on a flexible area unit of the cell-common time division duplex configuration.
8 . The network controlled repeater according to claim 1 , wherein,
when one of overlapped normal cyclic prefix (CP) symbols is flexible, the repeater determines an extended cyclic prefix symbol as a flexible symbol on the flexible time unit; and/or,
when a pair of overlapped regular cyclic prefix symbols comprises a downlink symbol and an uplink symbol, the repeater determines the extended cyclic prefix symbol as a flexible symbol on the flexible time unit.
9 . A communication system, comprising:
a repeater; and
a network device configured to communicate with the repeater,
the repeater comprises:
MT processor circuitry configured to receive time division duplex (TDD) configuration information from the network device; and
forwarding processor circuitry configured to perform to not forwarding on a first flexible time unit.
