Abstract

Provided are a data transmission method and apparatus, and a storage medium. The method includes: receiving second downlink control information over a second search space, and rejecting receiving first downlink control information over a first search space; wherein the second downlink control information comprises downlink control information for carrying feedback of a base station.

Claims (37)

1. A data transmission method, comprising:

receiving second downlink control information over a second search space, and rejecting receiving first downlink control information over a first search space; wherein the second downlink control information comprises downlink control information for carrying feedback of a base station;

wherein receiving the second downlink control information over the second search space and rejecting receiving the first downlink control information over the first search space comprise:

during a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission, receiving the second downlink control information over the second search space and rejecting receiving the first downlink control information over the first search space; and

wherein from start of the PUSCH transmission to end of the PUSCH transmission, in a case where a number Y of second search spaces monitored by a terminal is greater than a number X of first search spaces, rejecting receiving the first downlink control information over (Y-X) consecutive first search spaces after the end of the PUSCH transmission; wherein Y and X are both positive integers.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the feedback comprises acknowledgement (ACK) feedback corresponding to the PUSCH transmission.

3. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising stored computer executable instructions, wherein the computer executable instructions, when executed by a processor, perform the data transmission method of claim 1 .

4. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 3 , wherein the feedback comprises acknowledgement (ACK) feedback corresponding to the PUSCH transmission.

5. A data transmission method, comprising:

receiving second downlink control information over a second search space, and rejecting receiving first downlink control information over a first search space; wherein the second downlink control information comprises downlink control information for carrying feedback of a base station;

wherein receiving the second downlink control information over the second search space and rejecting receiving the first downlink control information over the first search space comprise:

within a maximum PUSCH transmission time range, receiving the second downlink control information over the second search space and rejecting receiving the first downlink control information over the first search space;

wherein the maximum PUSCH transmission time range is pre-configured; and

wherein

in a case where a number Y of second search spaces within the maximum PUSCH transmission time range is greater than a number X of first search spaces, rejecting receiving the first downlink control information over (Y-X) consecutive first search spaces after the maximum PUSCH transmission time range;

wherein Y and X are positive integers.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein

in a case where a total number Y of candidate sets in all second search spaces within the maximum PUSCH transmission time range is greater than a total number X of candidate sets in all first search spaces, and the first downlink control information is received over W consecutive first search spaces after the maximum PUSCH transmission time range, detecting the first downlink control information only on P candidate sets in each of the W first search spaces;

wherein a number P of candidate sets in one of the second search spaces is less than a number Q of candidate sets in one of the first search spaces, and Y, X, W and Q are positive integers.

7. A data transmission apparatus, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory for storing processor-executable instructions;

wherein the processor is configured to: perform a method of the data transmission method of claim 5 .

8. The data transmission apparatus of claim 7 wherein the processor is configured to:

in a case where a total number Y of candidate sets in all second search spaces within the maximum PUSCH transmission time range is greater than a total number X of candidate sets in all first search spaces, and the first downlink control information is received over W consecutive first search spaces after the maximum PUSCH transmission time range, detect the first downlink control information only on P candidate sets in each of the W first search spaces;

wherein a number P of candidate sets in one of the second search spaces is less than a number Q of candidate sets in one of the first search spaces, and Y, X, W and Q are positive integers.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising stored computer executable instructions, wherein the computer executable instructions, when executed by a processor, perform the data transmission method of claim 5 .

10. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein in a case where a total number Y of candidate sets in all second search spaces within the maximum PUSCH transmission time range is greater than a total number X of candidate sets in all first search spaces, and the first downlink control information is received over W consecutive first search spaces after the maximum PUSCH transmission time range, the processor performs detecting the first downlink control information only on P candidate sets in each of the W first search spaces;

wherein a number P of candidate sets in one of the second search spaces is less than a number Q of candidate sets in one of the first search spaces, and Y, X, W and Q are positive integers.

11. A data transmission apparatus, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory for storing processor-executable instructions;

wherein the processor is configured to:

receive second downlink control information over a second search space, and reject receiving first downlink control information over a first search space; wherein the second downlink control information comprises downlink control information for carrying feedback of a base station;

during a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission, receive the second downlink control information over the second search space and reject receiving the first downlink control information over the first search space; and

from start of the PUSCH transmission to end of the PUSCH transmission, in a case where a number Y of second search spaces monitored by a terminal is greater than a number X of first search spaces, reject receiving the first downlink control information over (Y-X) consecutive first search spaces after the end of the PUSCH transmission; wherein Y and X are both positive integers.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the feedback comprises acknowledgement (ACK) feedback corresponding to the PUSCH transmission.
