Abstract

Provided is a wireless communication method, a terminal device and a network device. The method includes in response to a beam failure occurred in a secondary cell, a terminal device generating a request message; the request message corresponds to a first configuration or a second configuration, the first configuration being a configuration of a scheduling request associated with at least one logical channel, and the second configuration being a configuration of a scheduling request not associated with a logical channel.

1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:

receiving, by a terminal device, a configuration indicated by a network device;

in response to a beam failure occurred in a secondary cell, generating, by the terminal device, a scheduling request, the scheduling request being used to request an uplink transmission resource from the network device;

receiving, by the terminal device, a response message for the scheduling request sent by the network device, the response message indicating a first resource; and

transmitting, by the terminal device, beam failure information of the secondary cell through a medium access control, MAC, control element, CE, the beam failure information being carried on the first resource,

wherein in response to the configuration indicated by the network device being a first configuration, the scheduling request corresponds to the first configuration, and the first configuration is a configuration of a scheduling request associated with at least one logical channel,

wherein in response to the configuration indicated by the network device being a second configuration, the scheduling request corresponds to the second configuration, the second configuration is a configuration of a scheduling request not associated with a logical channel, and a scheduling request identifier of the second configuration is different from a scheduling request identifier corresponding to a configuration of a scheduling request associated with a logical channel.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein in response to the configuration being the first configuration, the first configuration is determined from a configuration set based on at least one of the following:

indication information of the network device, a scheduling request identifier corresponding to each configuration in the configuration set, a resource identifier corresponding to each configuration in the configuration set, and a priority order of logical channels corresponding to respective configurations in the configuration set; or

the first configuration is randomly selected from the configuration set,

wherein, the configuration set comprises a configuration of at least one scheduling request, and each scheduling request corresponds to the at least one logical channel.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

a priority of transmitting beam failure information of the secondary cell is higher than a priority of transmitting any logical channel; or

the priority of transmitting the beam failure information of the secondary cell is higher than a priority of transmitting cell-radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) information or data from an uplink common control channel (UL-CCCH); or

the priority of transmitting the beam failure information of the secondary cell is lower than the priority of transmitting the C-RNTI information or the data from the UL-CCCH, and higher than a priority of transmitting configured grant confirmation information; or

the priority of transmitting the beam failure information of the secondary cell is the same as the priority of transmitting the C-RNTI information or the data from the UL-CCCH; or

the priority of transmitting the beam failure information of the secondary cell is the same as the priority of transmitting the configured grant confirmation information; or

the priority of transmitting the beam failure information of the secondary cell is lower than the priority of transmitting the configured grant confirmation information and higher than a priority of transmitting buffer status report (BSR) information; or

the priority of transmitting the beam failure information of the secondary cell is the same as the priority of transmitting the BSR information; or

the priority of transmitting the beam failure information of the secondary cell is lower than the priority of transmitting the BSR information and higher than a priority of transmitting a single piece of power headroom report (PHR) information or multiple pieces of PHR information.

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

transmitting, by the terminal device, the beam failure information of the secondary cell to the network device; and

confirming, by the terminal device, that Beam Failure Recovery (BFR) of the secondary cell is successful in response to the response message for the beam failure information of the secondary cell being received.

5. A terminal device, comprising a processor and a memory, wherein the memory is configured to store a computer program, and the processor is configured to call and run the computer program stored in the memory, to;

receive a configuration indicated by a network device;

generate a scheduling request in response to a beam failure occurred in a secondary cell, the scheduling request being used to request an uplink transmission resource from the network device;

receive a response message for the scheduling request sent by the network device, the response message indicating a first resource; and

transmit beam failure information of the secondary cell through a medium access control, MAC, control element, CE, the beam failure information being carried on the first resource,

wherein in response to the configuration indicated by the network device being a first configuration, the scheduling request corresponds to the first configuration, and the first configuration is a configuration of a scheduling request associated with at least one logical channel,

wherein in response to the configuration indicated by the network device being a second configuration, the scheduling request corresponds to the second configuration, the second configuration is a configuration of a scheduling request not associated with a logical channel, and a scheduling request identifier of the second configuration is different from a scheduling request identifier corresponding to a configuration of a scheduling request associated with a logical channel.
