Abstract

This application discloses a signal transmission method and a related device. The method may include: sending, by a first terminal, a first message to a network device, where the first message is used to indicate a transmission mode used by the first terminal to transmit a signal; receiving a second message sent by the network device, where the second message is used to indicate a resource used by the first terminal to transmit the signal; and transmitting the signal on the resource. According to the foregoing solution, a terminal may transmit a signal by using different transmission modes and resources.

Claims (25)

1. A method for signal transmission, comprising:

sending, by a first terminal, a first message to a network device, wherein the first message includes information indicating a transmission mode of the first terminal that the first terminal uses to transmit a signal, and the first message includes information indicating a quantity of signals to be transmitted by using the transmission mode, the transmission mode including a manner of using resources within different maximum frequency domain widths for the first terminal to transmit the signal by indicating at least one of the maximum frequency domain widths;

receiving a second message sent by the network device, wherein the second message includes information indicating a resource corresponding to at least one of the resources for the first terminal to transmit the signal and information indicating the transmission mode; and

transmitting the signal on the resource.

2. The method according to claim 1 wherein the at least one of the maximum frequency domain widths comprises any one of one PRB, six PRBs, sidelink bandwidth and a frequency domain width of a resource pool.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the manner of using the resources comprises at least one of the following manners:

a manner of transmitting the signal a plurality of times on different frequency domain resources, wherein a frequency domain width of the frequency domain resource is a maximum frequency domain width supported with a second terminal used to receive the signal receiving a sidelink signal; or

a manner of transmitting the signal by using a first resource, wherein the first resource is determined by the first terminal based on a second resource occupied by a sidelink signal that is received by the first terminal.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein with the manner of using the resources comprising the manner of transmitting the signal by using the first resource, the first message further includes information indicating the first resource or the second resource.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the transmitting of the signal on the resource comprises:

transmitting the signal based on the transmission mode indicated in the first message; or

transmitting the signal based on the transmission mode indicated in the second message.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein

the transmitting of the signal based on the transmission mode indicated in the first message includes determining a target resource from the resources based on the transmission mode indicated in the first message and a third resource, and transmitting the signal by using the target resource,

the transmitting of the signal based on the transmission mode indicated in the second message includes determining a target resource from the resources based on the transmission mode indicated in the second message and a third resource, and transmitting the signal by using the target resource, and

the third resource is determined by the first terminal, or is indicated in the second message.

7. A method for signal transmission, comprising:

receiving, by a network device, a first message sent by a first terminal, wherein the first message includes information indicating a transmission mode of the first terminal that the first terminal uses to transmit a signal, and the first message includes information indicating a quantity of signals to be transmitted by using the transmission mode, the transmission mode including a manner of using resources within different maximum frequency domain widths for the first terminal to transmit the signal by indicating at least one of the maximum frequency domain widths; and

sending a second message to the first terminal, wherein the second message includes information indicating a resource corresponding to at least one of the resources for the first terminal to transmit the signal and information indicating the transmission mode.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the at least one of the maximum frequency domain widths comprises any one of one PRB, six PRBs, sidelink bandwidth or a frequency domain width of a resource pool.

9. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the manner of using the resources comprises at least one of the following manners:

a manner of transmitting the signal a plurality of times on different frequency domain resources, wherein a frequency domain width of the frequency domain resource is a maximum frequency domain width supported with a second terminal used to receive the signal receiving a sidelink signal; or

a manner of transmitting the signal by using a first resource, wherein the first resource is determined by the first terminal based on a second resource occupied by a sidelink signal that is received by the first terminal.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein with the manner of using the resources comprising the manner of transmitting the signal by using the first resource, the first message further includes information indicating the first resource or the second resource.

11. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the second message further includes information indicating a third resource, the third resource and the transmission mode are used by the first terminal to determine a target resource from resources based on the transmission mode indicated in the second message, and the target resource is used to transmit the signal.
