Abstract

Claims (33)

1. A method of wireless communication, performed by a network device and comprising:

transmitting, by the network device, first information to a terminal device, wherein the first information is used for indicating a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource configured in a first slot, the first slot comprises a plurality of sub-slots, and the first information comprises a starting offset of the PUCCH resource relative to a boundary of at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots, wherein a starting offset of a PUCCH resource in at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots is smaller than or equal to a number of symbols comprised in one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots, wherein each sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots has the same number of symbols.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first information further comprises at least one of:

information of the at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots, a length of the PUCCH resource, a starting symbol offset or starting symbol index of the PUCCH resource, a configuration of the first slot, or restriction information.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the information of the at least one sub-slot comprises a position of a boundary of the at least one sub-slot.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the position of a boundary of the at least one sub-slot comprises a position of at least one of a lower boundary or a position of a starting boundary of the at least one sub-slot.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

a length of the PUCCH resource in the at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots is smaller than or equal to a length of the first slot.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PUCCH resource in the at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots comprises a PUCCH time-domain resource in the at least one sub-slot.

7. A method of wireless communication, performed by a terminal device and the method comprising:

receiving, by the terminal device, first information transmitted by a network device, wherein the first information is used for indicating at least one physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource configured in a first slot, the first slot comprises a plurality of sub-slots, and the first information comprises a starting offset of the PUCCH resource relative to a boundary of at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots; and

determining, by the terminal device, a PUCCH resource in at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots from the at least one PUCCH resource according to the first information;

wherein a starting offset of a PUCCH resource in the at least one sub-slot is smaller than or equal to a number of symbols comprised in one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots, wherein each sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots has the same number of symbols.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the first information further comprises at least one of:

information of the at least one sub-slot, a length of the PUCCH resource, a starting symbol offset or starting symbol index of the PUCCH resource, a configuration of the first slot, or restriction information.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the information of the at least one sub-slot comprises a position of a boundary of the at least one sub-slot.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the position of a boundary of the at least one sub-slot comprises a position of at least one of a lower boundary or a position of a starting boundary of the at least one sub-slot.

11. The method of claim 7 , wherein:

a length of the PUCCH resource in the at least one sub-slot is smaller than or equal to a length of the first slot.

12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the PUCCH resource in the at least one sub-slot comprises a PUCCH time-domain resource in the at least one sub-slot.

13. An apparatus of wireless communication, comprising:

a transceiver;

a processor; and

a memory storing computer programs which, when executed by the processor, are operable with the transceiver to:

receive first information transmitted by a network device, wherein the first information is used for indicating at least one physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource configured in a first slot, the first slot comprises a plurality of sub-slots, and the first information comprises a starting offset of a PUCCH resource relative to a boundary of at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots; and

the computer programs, when executed by the processor, are operable with the processor to determine a PUCCH resource in at least one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots from the at least one PUCCH resource according to the first information;

wherein a starting offset of a PUCCH resource in the at least one sub-slot is smaller than or equal to a number of symbols comprised in one sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots, wherein each sub-slot among the plurality of sub-slots has the same number of symbols.

14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the first information further comprises at least one of:

information of the at least one sub-slot, a length of the PUCCH resource, a starting symbol offset or starting symbol index of the PUCCH resource, a configuration of the first slot, or restriction information.

15. The apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the information of the at least one sub-slot comprises a position of a boundary of the at least one sub-slot.

16. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the position of a boundary of the at least one sub-slot comprises a position of at least one of a lower boundary or a position of a starting boundary of the at least one sub-slot.

17. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein:

a length of the PUCCH resource in the at least one sub-slot is smaller than or equal to a length of the first slot.
