Abstract

This application provides an uplink control information sending method and apparatus and an uplink control information receiving method and apparatus. The sending method includes: determining a mapping-affecting factor, where the mapping-affecting factor is used to indicate a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) or uplink control information; mapping the uplink control information to the PUSCH based on the mapping-affecting factor; and sending the PUSCH to a base station.

Claims (45)

1. A method, comprising:

determining, by a terminal, a mapping-affecting factor, wherein the mapping-affecting factor comprises a processing latency of the terminal and a modulation order of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);

mapping, by the terminal, uplink control information to the PUSCH based on the mapping-affecting factor, wherein a time duration from a time when a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) is received to a time domain position of the PUSCH is greater than the processing latency of the terminal, or a time duration from a time when a PDSCH is received to a start symbol of the PUSCH is greater than the processing latency of the terminal, and wherein the uplink control information is mapped to the PUSCH in a manner of localized mapping when the modulation order is greater than a preset modulation order, or the uplink control information is mapped to the PUSCH in a manner of distributed mapping when the modulation order is not greater than the preset modulation order; and

sending, by the terminal, the PUSCH to a base station.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the uplink control information comprises at least one of an acknowledgement (ACK) or negative acknowledgement (NACK),

the method further comprising:

reporting the processing latency of the terminal to the base station.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the uplink control information comprises at least one of an ACK or NACK,

the method further comprising:

receiving a transmission latency of the uplink control information from the base station, wherein the transmission latency of the uplink control information is a feedback timing of the at least one of ACK or NACK.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the PUSCH and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configured to transmit the uplink control information overlap in a time domain, and wherein the PUCCH is earlier than the PUSCH,

the uplink control information is mapped to an overlapping symbol between the PUSCH and the PUCCH.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a subcarrier spacing of the uplink control information is different from a subcarrier spacing of the PUSCH,

the uplink control information is mapped to a time domain resource that is of the PUSCH and covers the uplink control information.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the mapping-affecting factor further comprises at least one of the following information: a transmission latency of the uplink control information, a subcarrier spacing of the uplink control information, a subcarrier spacing of the PUSCH, a frequency hopping status of the PUSCH, a size of a data packet in the PUSCH, whether the PUSCH and a resource configured for the uplink control information are located on a same carrier or a same bandwidth part, or a position of a reference signal of the PUSCH.

7. An apparatus, comprising:

one or more memories configured to store instructions; and

one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories and configured to execute the instructions to cause the apparatus to:

determine a mapping-affecting factor, wherein the mapping-affecting factor comprises a processing latency of the apparatus and a modulation order of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);

map uplink control information to the PUSCH based on the mapping-affecting factor, wherein a time duration from a time when a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) is received to a time domain position of the PUSCH is greater than the processing latency of the apparatus, or a time duration from a time when a PDSCH is received to a start symbol of the PUSCH is greater than the processing latency of the apparatus, and wherein the uplink control information is mapped to the PUSCH in a manner of localized mapping when the modulation order is greater than a preset modulation order, or the uplink control information is mapped to the PUSCH in a manner of distributed mapping when the modulation order is not greater than the preset modulation order; and

send the PUSCH to a base station.

8. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the uplink control information comprises at least one of an acknowledgement (ACK) or negative acknowledgement (NACK),

wherein executing the instructions further causes the apparatus to:

report the processing latency of the apparatus to the base station.

9. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the uplink control information comprises at least one of an ACK or NACK,

wherein executing the instructions further causes the apparatus to:

receive a transmission latency of the uplink control information from the base station, wherein the transmission latency of the uplink control information is a feedback timing of the at least one of ACK or NACK.

10. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the PUSCH and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configured to transmit the uplink control information overlap in a time domain, and wherein the PUCCH is earlier than the PUSCH,

the uplink control information is mapped to an overlapping symbol between the PUSCH and the PUCCH.

11. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein a subcarrier spacing of the uplink control information is different from a subcarrier spacing of the PUSCH,

13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions, wherein the executable instructions, when executed by a computer system, cause the computer system to:

determine a mapping-affecting factor, wherein the mapping-affecting factor comprises a processing latency of a terminal and a modulation order of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);

map uplink control information to the PUSCH based on the mapping-affecting factor, wherein a time duration from a time when a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) is received to a time domain position of the PUSCH is greater than the processing latency of the terminal, or a time duration from a time when a PDSCH is received to a start symbol of the PUSCH is greater than the processing latency of the terminal, and wherein the uplink control information is mapped to the PUSCH in a manner of localized mapping when the modulation order is greater than a preset modulation order, or the uplink control information is mapped to the PUSCH in a manner of distributed mapping when the modulation order is not greater than the preset modulation order; and
