Abstract

Disclosed are a method and device for determining a transmission time, and a computer storage medium. The method includes that: a terminal receives Downlink Control Information (DCI) from a base station at a first time; and the terminal determines, based on the first time, a second time for transmitting sidelink data.

Claims (28)

1. A method for determining a transmission time, comprising:

receiving, by a terminal, Downlink Control Information (DCI) from a base station at a first time, wherein time at which the DCI is sent by the base station is a third time;

determining, by the terminal, a second time for transmitting sidelink data based on the first time; and

sending, by the terminal, uplink information to the base station at a fourth time before the terminal receives the DCI from the base station at the first time, wherein time at which the base station receives the uplink information is a fifth time;

wherein a duration between the fourth time and the second time is less than a duration corresponding to a delay demand of the terminal.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

taking, by the terminal, time at which a last symbol carrying the DCI is received as the first time; or

taking, by the terminal, time at which a last symbol of a subframe or of a slot carrying the DCI is received as the first time.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first time and the second time are measured by a first time unit, and the first time unit is a time unit used by Sidelink (SL).

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the fifth time is specifically determined by a following manner:

taking, by the base station, time at which a last symbol carrying the uplink information is received as the fifth time; or

taking, by the base station, time at which a last symbol of a subframe or of a slot carrying the uplink information is received as the fifth time.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the third time and the fifth time are measured by a second time unit, and the second time unit is a time unit used by Downlink (DL).

6. A device for determining a transmission time, comprising:

a transmission device, configured to receive Downlink Control Information (DCI) from a base station at a first time, wherein time at which the DCI is sent by the base station is a third time; and

a processor, configured to determine, based on the first time, a second time for transmitting sidelink data,

wherein the transmission device is further configured to:

send uplink information to the base station at a fourth time, time at which the base station receives the uplink information being a fifth time,

wherein a duration between the fourth time and the second time is less than a duration corresponding to a delay demand of the terminal.

7. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

take time at which a last symbol carrying the DCI is received as the first time; or take time at which a last symbol of a subframe or of a slot carrying the DCI is received as the first time.

8. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the first time and the second time are measured by a first time unit, and the first time unit is a time unit adopted by Sidelink (SL).

9. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the fifth time is specifically determined by a following manner:

taking, by the base station, time at which a last symbol carrying the uplink information is received as the fifth time; or

taking, by the base station, time at which a last symbol of a subframe or of a slot carrying the uplink information is received as the fifth time.

10. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the third time and the fifth time are measured by a second time unit, and the second time unit is a time unit used by Downlink (DL).

11. A non-transitory computer storage medium, having a computer-executable instruction stored thereon which, when executed by a processor, enables to implement the steps of the method according to claim 1 .

12. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the first time and the second time are measured by a first time unit, and the first time unit is a time unit used by Sidelink (SL).
