Abstract

Embodiments of the present application provide a configuration method for a sidelink configured grant, a device and a storage medium. The method includes: sending, by a network device, a parameter for determining sidelink configured grant (CG) transmission resources, where the CG transmission resources have same time domain positions in different frame periods. Since the CG transmission resources determined using the parameter configured via a network have the same time domain positions in different frame periods, a terminal device may accurately determine the time domain position of the CG transmission resource no matter in which frame period the terminal device has received the parameter sent by the network device.

Claims (37)

1. A configuration method for a sidelink configured grant, comprising:

receiving, by a terminal device, a parameter for determining sidelink configured grant (CG) transmission resources;

determining, by the terminal device, the CG transmission resources according to the parameter; wherein the parameter for determining the sidelink CG transmission resources is determined based on a logical slot in a first resource pool, and the logical slot is a slot position determined based on resources in the first resource pool;

wherein receiving, by the terminal device, the parameter for determining the sidelink CG transmission resources comprises:

receiving, by the terminal device, second configuration information, wherein the second configuration information comprises the parameter;

wherein time domain positions of the CG transmission resources in frame periods are determined according to a period of the CG transmission resources, a total quantity of slots belonging to the first resource pool within a frame period and a slot of a sidelink CG transmission resource determined according to the second configuration information.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second configuration information is a radio resource control (RRC) signaling or downlink control information (DCI) signaling.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the parameter further comprises a slot offset, wherein for any frame period of the frame periods, the slot offset is used to determine a time domain position of a first CG transmission resource belonging to the first resource pool in the frame period, wherein the frame periods are system frame number (SFN) periods or direct frame number (DFN) periods.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the time domain positions of the CG transmission resources in the frame period are further determined according to a slot offset.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein slots of the CG transmission resources meet following formula:

Current_slot=(S+N*P)modulo(NRP,slot);

wherein P represents a period parameter of the sidelink CG transmission resources; NRP,slot represents a total quantity of slots of a first resource pool within one frame period; S represents a slot of a sidelink CG transmission resource or logical slot indexes of multiple sidelink transmission resources; Current_slot represents a slot index corresponding to one slot belonging to the first resource pool within one frame period, Current_slot is represented by a logical slot index, and its value range is [0, NRP,slot-1]; and N represents an integer.

7. The terminal device according to claim 6 , wherein the second configuration information is a radio resource control (RRC) signaling or downlink control information (DCI) signaling.

8. The terminal device according to claim 6 , wherein the parameter further comprises a slot offset, wherein for any frame period of the frame periods, the slot offset is used to determine a time domain position of a first CG transmission resource belonging to the first resource pool in the frame period, wherein the frame periods are system frame number (SFN) periods or direct frame number (DFN) periods.

9. The terminal device according to claim 6 , wherein the time domain positions of the CG transmission resources in the frame period are further determined according to a slot offset.

10. The terminal device according to claim 6 , wherein slots of the CG transmission resources meet following formula:

Current_slot=(S+N*P)modulo(NRP,slot);

wherein P represents a period parameter of the sidelink CG transmission resources; NRP,slot represents a total quantity of slots of a first resource pool within one frame period; S represents a slot of a sidelink CG transmission resource or logical slot indexes of multiple sidelink transmission resources; Current_slot represents a slot index corresponding to one slot belonging to the first resource pool within one frame period, Current_slot is represented by a logical slot index, and its value range is [0, NRP,slot-1]; and N represents an integer.

11. A network device, comprising:

a processor, a memory, an interface for communication with a terminal device;

the memory stores computer execution instructions;

the processor executes the computer execution instructions stored in the memory, so that the processor is configured to:

control the interface to send a parameter for determining sidelink configured grant (CG) transmission resources; wherein the parameter for determining the sidelink CG transmission resources is determined based on a logical slot in a first resource pool, and the logical slot is a slot position determined based on resources in the first resource pool;

wherein the processor is specifically configured to:

send second configuration information, wherein the second configuration information comprises the parameter;

wherein time domain positions of the CG transmission resources in frame periods are determined according to a period of the CG transmission resources, a total quantity of slots belonging to the first resource pool within a frame period and a slot of a sidelink CG transmission resource determined according to the second configuration information.

12. The network device according to claim 11 , wherein the second configuration information is a radio resource control (RRC) signaling or downlink control information (DCI) signaling.

13. The network device according to claim 11 , wherein the parameter further comprises a slot offset, wherein for any frame period of the frame periods, the slot offset is used to determine a time domain position of a first CG transmission resource belonging to the first resource pool in the frame period, wherein the frame periods are system frame number (SFN) periods or direct frame number (DFN) periods.
