3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the second information is received by the first node via Media Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE).
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of:
the first information is received by the first node via higher layer signaling, and the second information is received by the first node via Media Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE);
the first information and the second information are received by the first node via the higher layer signaling; or
the first information and the second information are received by the first node via MAC CE.
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising: in response to receiving the time difference information, adjusting, by the first node, at least one of uplink transmission timing or downlink transmission timing.
6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining, by the first node based on the indication information, an offset from the first time difference value indicated by the second information; and
determining, by the first node, the time difference value based on the offset and the second information.
7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining, by the first node based on one of the indication information, the timing mode, and the time resource type received from the second node, whether to offset from the first time difference value indicated by the second information; and
determining, by the first node, the time difference value based on whether to offset from the time difference value and the second information.
8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the second information is used to indicate the first time difference value corresponding to the time difference information.
9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the time difference information is one of 1/N of a time interval at the second node between a start of a UL Rx frame i for the first node and a start of a DL Tx frame i, wherein N is an integer; timing advance amount; timing advance adjustment amount which is an adjustment amount corresponding to the timing advance amount at a specific moment in time; and relative time difference information which is an adjustment amount corresponding to the time difference information at a specific moment in time.
10 . A first node, comprising:
at least one processor configured to:
receive, via a receiver from a second node of a wireless communication network, first information and second information, wherein the first information comprises configuration information of at least one of indication information, timing mode, or time resource type;
determine time difference information offset relative to a first time difference value indicated by the second information based on the first information;
determine whether to reverse the first time difference value indicated by the second information based on the first information, or whether to reverse the first time difference value corresponding to a specific timing scene; and
determine time difference information according to the time difference information offset indicated by the first information, the first time difference value indicated by the second information, and whether to reverse the first time difference value, the time difference information having a time difference value; and
adjust at least one of uplink transmission timing or downlink transmission timing based on the time difference information.
11 . A wireless communication method, comprising:
sending, by a second node to a first node of a wireless communication network, first information and second information,
wherein the first information comprises configuration information of at least one of indication information, timing mode, or time resource type, which enables the first node to determine time difference information offset relative to a first time difference value indicated by the second information based on the first information, determine whether to reverse the first time difference value indicated by the second information based on the first information, or whether to reverse the first time difference value corresponding to a specific timing scene, determine according to the time difference information offset indicated by the second information, the first time difference value indicated by the second information, and whether to reverse the first time difference value, the time difference information having a time difference value, and adjust at least one of uplink transmission timing or downlink transmission timing based on the time difference information.
12 . A second node of a wireless communication network, comprising:
at least one processor configured to:
send, via a transmitter to a first node of the wireless communication network, first information and second information,
wherein the first information comprises configuration information of at least one of indication information, timing mode, or time resource type, which enables the first node to determine time difference information offset relative to a first time difference value indicated by the second information based on the first information, determine whether to reverse the first time difference value indicated by the second information based on the first information, or whether to reverse the first time difference value corresponding to a specific timing scene, determine time difference information according to the time difference information offset indicated by the second information, the first time difference value indicated by the second information, and whether to reverse the first time difference value, the time difference information having a time difference value, and adjust at least one of uplink transmission timing or downlink transmission timing based on the time difference information.
