Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosure relates to the field of communications, and more particularly to a method and device for information transmission.

BACKGROUND

In a long-term evolution-based licensed-assisted access (LAA-LTE) system, services are provided for a terminal device by taking a carrier on a licensed spectrum as a primary carrier and taking a carrier on an unlicensed spectrum as a secondary carrier. A communication device follows a “listen before talk (LBT)” principle on an unlicensed spectrum, namely the communication device, before sending a signal on a channel of the unlicensed spectrum, is required to monitor the channel at first, the communication device may send the signal only when a channel monitoring result is that the channel is idle, and if the channel monitoring result of the communication device for the channel of the unlicensed spectrum is that the channel is busy, the communication device may not send the signal.

Since data transmission of a communication device is opportunistic, data may be transmitted only when LBT succeeds and no data may be transmitted when LBT fails, a network device and a terminal device in a cell served by the network device are required to know when the opposite party starts data transmission and stops data transmission so as to implement correct data communication between the terminal device and the network device.

When a new radio (NR) technology is applied to an unlicensed spectrum, multiple subcarrier spacings and broadband transmission are supported.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In the related art, when a new radio (NR) technology is applied to an unlicensed spectrum, multiple subcarrier spacings and broadband transmission are supported. Under such a circumstance, how to determine a position of a resource for data transmission to implement normal data communication between a terminal device and a network device is a problem urgent to be solved.

The technical solutions in the disclosure will be described below in combination with the drawings.

Terms “part”, “module”, “system” and the like used in the specification are adopted to represent a computer related entity, hardware, firmware, hardware and software combination, software, or software in execution. For example, a part may be, but not limited to, a process running on a processor, the processor, an object, an executable file, an execution thread, a program and/or a computer. The drawings show that an application running on a computing device and the computing device may both be parts. One or more parts may reside in a process or an execution thread, and the parts may be located on a computer and/or distributed among two or more computers. In addition, these parts may be executed from various computer-readable media with various data structures stored therein. The “parts” may communicate through local or remote processes according to, for example, signals with one or more data groups (for example, data from two parts interacting with another part of a local system, a distributed system or a network, for example, the Internet interacting with another system through signals).

The embodiments of the disclosure may be applied to various communication systems, for example, a Global System of Mobile communication (GSM), a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system, a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) system, a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), an LTE system, an Advanced Long Term Evolution (LTE-A) system, an LTE-based access to unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) system, an NR system, an evolved system of the NR system such as an NR-based access to unlicensed spectrum (NR-U) system, a Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi), or a next-generation communication system.

Generally speaking, connections supported by a conventional communication system are usually limited in number and also easy to implement. However, with the development of communication technologies, a mobile communication system will not only support conventional communication but also support, for example, Device to Device (D2D) communication, Machine to Machine (M2M) communication, Machine Type Communication (MTC), and Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) communication.

A communication system in the embodiments of the disclosure may be applied to a Carrier Aggregation (CA) scenario, may also be applied to a Dual Connectivity (DC) scenario and may further be applied to a Standalone (SA) network deployment scenario.

The embodiments of the disclosure are described in combination with a network device and a terminal device.

The terminal device may also be called User Equipment (UE), an access terminal, a user unit, a user Station (ST), a mobile radio ST, a mobile ST, a remote ST, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a user terminal, a terminal, a wireless communication device, a user agent, a user device or the like. The terminal device may be an ST in a WLAN, and may be a cell phone, a cordless phone, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, a Wireless Local Loop (WLL) ST, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a handheld device with a wireless communication function, a computing device, another processing device connected to a wireless modem, a vehicle device, a wearable device, a terminal device in a next-generation communication system, for example, a future fifth-Generation (5G) network, a terminal device in a future evolved Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) or the like.

The wearable device may also be called a wearable intelligent device and is a generic term of wearable devices obtained by performing intelligentization designing and development on daily wearing products, for example, glasses, gloves, watches, clothes and shoes. The wearable device is a portable device directly worn or integrated to clothes or accessory of a user. The wearable device not only is a hardware device but also realizes powerful functions through software support, data interaction and cloud interaction. Generalized wearable intelligent device includes, for example, intelligent watches or intelligent glasses with complete functions and large sizes and capable of realizing all or part of functions independently of intelligent phones, and for example, various types of intelligent bands and intelligent jewelries of which each is dedicated to application functions of a certain type and required to be matched with other devices such as intelligent phones for use.

The network device may be a device configured to communicate with a mobile device, and the network device may be an Access Point (AP) in the WLAN, a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) in the GSM or CDMA, may also be a NodeB (NB) in WCDMA, and may further be an Evolutional Node B (eNB or eNodeB) in LTE, or a relay ST or AP, or a vehicle device, a wearable device, a network device in the future 5G network, a network device in the future evolved PLMN or the like.

In the embodiments of the disclosure, the network device provides service for a cell, and the terminal device communicates with the network device through a transmission resource (for example, a frequency-domain resource or a spectrum resource) for the cell. The cell may be a cell corresponding to the network device (for example, a base ST). The cell may be served by a macro base station, and may also be served by a base station corresponding to a small cell. Here, the small cell may include: a metro cell, a micro cell, a pico cell, a femto cell and the like. These small cells have the characteristics of small coverage and low transmitted power and are applied to provision of high-rate data transmission service.

In the embodiments of the disclosure, multiple cells may simultaneously work on the same frequency on a carrier in an LTE system or a 5G system, and in some special scenarios, concepts of carrier and cell may also be considered to be equivalent. For example, in a CA scenario, when a secondary carrier is configured for UE, both a carrier index of the secondary carrier and a cell Identity (ID) of a secondary cell working on the secondary carrier may be contained, and under this condition, the concepts of carrier and cell may be considered to be equivalent. For example, for the UE, access to a carrier and access to a cell are equivalent.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a communication system according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the communication system 100 includes a network device 110 and a terminal device 120.

Any implementation manner of the abovementioned network device may be adopted for the network device 110, and any implementation manner of the abovementioned terminal device may be adopted for the terminal device 120. Elaborations are omitted herein.

It is to be understood that the communication system 100 may be a PLMN or a D2D network or an M2M network or another network. FIG. 1 is only a simplified schematic diagram listed as an example, and the network may further include another network device which is not presented in FIG. 1.

In the embodiment of the disclosure, frequency-domain resources for wireless communication (for example, uplink transmission or downlink transmission) between the network device and the terminal device are frequency-domain resources used based on a contention mechanism.

For example, the network device and/or the terminal device may detect whether a frequency-domain resource with a certain bandwidth (for example, 20 MHz) is presently in an idle state or not or whether the frequency-domain resource is used by another device or not. If the frequency-domain resource is in the idle state or the frequency-domain resource is not used by another device, the network device and/or the terminal device may use the frequency-domain resource for communication, for example, for uplink transmission or downlink transmission. If the frequency-domain resource is not in the idle state or the frequency-domain resource has been used by another device, the network device and/or the terminal device may not use the frequency-domain resource.

Exemplarily but unlimitedly, in the embodiment of the disclosure, a frequency-domain resource used by the communication system 100 (or a frequency-domain resource used by the network device and the terminal device based on the contention mechanism) may also be a licensed spectrum resource, namely the communication system 100 in the embodiment of the disclosure is a communication system that a licensed band is available for, and moreover, each communication device (the network device and/or the terminal device) in the communication system 100 may use a frequency-domain resource of the licensed band in a contention manner. A “licensed frequency-domain resource” may also be called a “licensed spectrum resource” or a “licensed carrier”, and refers to a frequency-domain resource required to be approved by the national or local radio committee for use.

Alternatively, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the frequency-domain resource used by the communication system 100 (or the frequency-domain resource used by the network device and/or the terminal device based on the contention mechanism) may be an unlicensed frequency-domain resource. The “unlicensed frequency-domain resource” may also be called an “unlicensed spectrum resource” or an “unlicensed carrier”, and refers to a resource that may be shared by communication devices on an unlicensed band.

Exemplarily but unlimitedly, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the unlicensed spectrum resource may include a band nearby 5 Giga Hertz (GHz), a band nearby 2 GHz, a band nearby 3.5 GHz, a band nearby 37 GHz and a band nearby 60 GHz.

A method for information transmission in the embodiments of the disclosure will be described below in combination with FIG. 2 to FIG. 4. It is to be noted that the embodiments of the disclosure mainly involve a determination manner for a time-domain resource. A determination manner for a frequency-domain resource may be the same as or similar to that in a related art and, for avoiding elaborations, will not be described in detail herein.

It is to be understood that FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 are schematic flowcharts of the method for information transmission in the embodiments of the disclosure and show detailed communication steps or operations of the method. However, these steps or operations are only exemplary. Other operations or transformations of each operation in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 may also be executed in the embodiments of the disclosure.

In addition, each step in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 may be executed in sequences different from those presented in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 respectively, and not all the operations in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 may be executed.

FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a method for information transmission according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the method 200 includes the following contents.

In S210, a network device determines a first time-domain resource available on a first carrier, the first time-domain resource being a time-domain resource in a first downlink transmission burst.

In S220, the network device sends first information to a terminal device through the first time-domain resource on the first carrier. The first information is used to indicated that time-domain resource information of a first transmission burst needs to be determined according to a first subcarrier spacing.

Therefore, the network device may send the first information to the terminal device through the time-domain resource in the first transmission burst on the first carrier and indicate a determination manner for the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst (which may include, for example, an uplink transmission burst and/or a downlink transmission burst) through the first information, and in such a manner, the terminal device and the network device may reach an agreement on a time-domain resource position of the first transmission burst, and correct data communication between the terminal device and the network device may be implemented.

It is to be noted that, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the first carrier is an unlicensed carrier, namely the first information may be used to indicate a determination manner for time-domain resource information of a transmission burst on the unlicensed carrier.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the first time-domain resource used for sending the first information may be a time-domain resource configured by the network device to transmit a downlink control channel in the first downlink transmission burst, for example, a time-domain resource in a Control Resource Set (CORESET).

It is to be understood that, in the embodiment of the disclosure, a downlink transmission burst may be defined as one or more time units for continuous transmission of the network device, and similarly, an uplink transmission burst may be defined as one or more time units for continuous transmission of the terminal device. One time unit may be one or more subframes, may also be one or more slots, and may also be one or more mini-slots or symbols, etc. A starting time unit and/or ending time unit of a downlink transmission burst or an uplink transmission burst may be a complete time unit and may also be part of a time unit, etc. There are no limits made thereto in the embodiment of the disclosure.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the time-domain resource information may include at least one of: a starting position; an ending position; a channel occupancy duration; or, a slot format; or, the time-domain resource information may also be other information capable of reflecting the time-domain resource position. There are no special limits made thereto in the embodiment of the disclosure.

For example, the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst may include a starting position, for example, a starting symbol or a starting slot, of the first transmission burst.

Or, the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst may include an ending position, for example, an ending symbol or an ending slot, of the first transmission burst.

Or, the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst may include a channel occupancy duration in the first transmission burst, i.e., a duration, for example, a number of subframes or a number of slots, occupied by channel transmission in the first transmission burst.

Or, the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst may include the slot format of the first transmission burst. For example, the slot format of the first transmission burst may indicate slot formats in one or more slots in a bitmap manner; or, the slot format of the first transmission burst may also indicate the number of downlink symbols and/or the number of uplink symbols in a slot; or, the slot format of the first transmission burst may indicate a slot format index in a slot, and the slot format index may be used to indicate a specific slot format. An indication manner for the slot format of the first transmission burst is not specially limited in the embodiment of the disclosure.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the first transmission burst may include at least one of the first downlink transmission burst on the first carrier or a first uplink transmission burst on the first carrier, namely the network device may not only indicate time-domain resource information of the downlink transmission burst on the first carrier through the first indication but also indicate time-domain resource information of the uplink transmission burst on the first carrier through the first information, so that the terminal device and the network device may reach an agreement on time-domain resource positions of the downlink transmission burst and/or uplink transmission burst on the first carrier, and correct data communication between the terminal device and the network device may be implemented.

Optionally, in some embodiments, a frequency-domain resource where the first uplink transmission burst on the first carrier is located at least partially overlaps with a frequency-domain resource where the first downlink transmission burst on the first carrier is located. For example, the first downlink transmission burst on the first carrier and the first uplink transmission burst on the first carrier may be on the same sub-band of the first carrier.

It is to be understood that, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the first subcarrier spacing used for determining the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst may be a subcarrier spacing defined by a communication system, or, the first subcarrier spacing may be a subcarrier spacing configured by the network device, or, the first subcarrier spacing may also be a subcarrier spacing used for the network device to transmit downlink control information, etc. There are no limits made thereto in the embodiment of the disclosure.

Optionally, a size of the first subcarrier spacing is less than or equal to a size of a subcarrier spacing used for physical channel transmission on the first carrier.

An indication manner for the first information will be described below in detail.

First embodiment: the first information may further be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of a second transmission burst needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing, and the second transmission burst may include at least one of the following:

a second downlink transmission burst on the first carrier;

a second uplink transmission burst on the first carrier;

a third downlink transmission burst on a second carrier; or

a third uplink transmission burst on the second carrier.

A frequency-domain resource where the second transmission burst is located does not overlap with a frequency-domain resource where the first transmission burst is located.

That is, the first information may not only indicate that the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing but also indicate that the time-domain resource information of the second transmission burst needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing, namely the network device may indicate that both the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst and the time-domain resource information of the second transmission burst need to be determined according to the same subcarrier spacing. According to frequency-domain positions of the first transmission burst and the second transmission burst, the following two scenarios may be included.

A first scenario: the first transmission burst and the second transmission burst may be on different sub-bands of the same carrier. For example, the first carrier may include a first sub-band and a second sub-band, the first transmission burst may be on the first sub-band of the first carrier, and the second transmission burst may be on the second sub-band of the first carrier. Specifically, the first transmission burst may include the first uplink transmission burst and/or first downlink transmission burst on the first sub-band of the first carrier, and the second transmission burst may include the second uplink transmission burst and/or second downlink transmission burst on the second sub-band of the first carrier.

A second scenario: the first transmission burst and the second transmission burst may be on different carriers. For example, the first transmission burst is on the first carrier, and the second transmission burst is on the second carrier. The first transmission burst may include the first uplink transmission burst and/or first downlink transmission burst on the first carrier, and the second transmission burst may include the third downlink transmission burst and/or third uplink transmission burst on the second carrier. Optionally, the third downlink transmission burst on the second carrier and the third uplink transmission burst on the second carrier may be on the same sub-band of the second carrier.

To sum up, in the first embodiment, the first information transmitted on the first carrier may be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of transmission bursts on at least two sub-bands of the first carrier needs to be determined according to the same subcarrier spacing, i.e., the first scenario. Time-domain resource positions of the transmission bursts on the at least two sub-bands may be the same, and under this condition, the first information may only indicate only one piece of time-domain resource information. Or, the time-domain resource positions of the transmission bursts on the at least two sub-bands may be different, and under this condition, the first information may be used to indicate the time-domain resource position of the transmission burst on each of the at least two sub-bands.

Or, the first information transmitted on the first carrier may not only be used to indicate the determination manner for the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst on the first carrier but also be used to indicate a determination manner for time-domain resource information of the second transmission burst on another carrier, for example, the second carrier. That is, the first information may be used to indicate determination manners for time-domain resources of transmission bursts on at least two carriers. The subcarrier spacing used for determining the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst on the first carrier and the subcarrier spacing used for determining the time-domain resource information of the second transmission burst on the second carrier may be the same, i.e., the second scenario.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the second carrier may be an unlicensed carrier different from the first carrier.

In a specific implementation of the first embodiment, the first information is used to indicate that a first ending position of the first transmission burst needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing, and the first information is further used to indicated that a second ending position of the second transmission burst needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing, an interval between the first ending position and the second ending position being less than or equal to a first preset value.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the first preset value may be 1 ms.

For example, in the first scenario, ending positions of the transmission bursts on the at least two sub-bands of the first carrier may be different, and under this condition, a time interval between the ending positions of the transmission bursts on the at least two sub-bands is no more than the first preset value.

Or, in the second scenario, the ending position of the transmission burst on the first carrier and the ending position of the transmission burst on the second carrier may also be different, and under this condition, a time interval between the ending position of the transmission burst on the first carrier and the ending position of the transmission burst on the second carrier is no more than the first preset value.

Second embodiment: the first information may further be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of a third transmission burst needs to be determined according to a second subcarrier spacing, and the third transmission burst includes at least one of the following:

a fourth downlink transmission burst on the first carrier;

a fourth uplink transmission burst on the first carrier;

a fifth downlink transmission burst on the second carrier; or,

a fifth uplink transmission burst on the second carrier.

A frequency-domain resource where the third transmission burst is located does not overlap with the frequency-domain resource where the first transmission burst is located.

That is, the first information may not only be used to indicate that the time-domain resource information of the first transmission burst needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing but also be used to indicate that the time-domain resource information of the third transmission burst needs to be determined according to a subcarrier spacing that is not the first subcarrier spacing, for example, the second subcarrier spacing. According to frequency-domain positions of the first transmission burst and the third transmission burst, the following two scenarios may be included.

A third scenario: the first transmission burst and the third transmission burst may be on different sub-bands of the same carrier. For example, the first carrier may include the first sub-band and the second sub-band, the first transmission burst may be on the first sub-band of the first carrier, and the third transmission burst may be on the second sub-band of the first carrier. That is, the first information may be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of transmission bursts on different sub-bands of the first carrier needs to be determined according to different subcarrier spacings. For example, the first transmission burst may include the first uplink transmission burst and/or first downlink transmission burst on the first sub-band of the first carrier, and the third transmission burst may include the fourth uplink transmission burst and/or fourth downlink transmission burst on the second sub-band of the first carrier.

A fourth scenario: the first transmission burst and the third transmission burst may be on different carriers. For example, the first transmission burst is on the first carrier, and the third transmission burst is on the second carrier. The first transmission burst may include the first uplink transmission burst and/or first downlink transmission burst on the first carrier, and the third transmission burst may include the fifth downlink transmission burst and/or fifth uplink transmission burst on the second carrier. Optionally, the fifth downlink transmission burst on the second carrier and the fifth uplink transmission burst on the second carrier may be on the same sub-band of the second carrier.

To sum up, in the second embodiment, the first information transmitted on the first carrier may be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of transmission bursts on different sub-bands of the first carrier needs to be determined according to different subcarrier spacings, i.e., the third scenario. Time-domain resource positions of transmission bursts on different sub-bands may be different, for example, there are different ending positions of downlink transmission bursts on different sub-bands for the network device, so that the network device may release idle frequency-domain resources when a load of the network device is reduced, which is favorable for increasing the utilization rate of frequency-domain resources.

Or, the first information transmitted on the first carrier may be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of transmission bursts on different carriers needs to be determined according to different subcarrier spacings, i.e., the fourth scenario. Time-domain resource positions of transmission bursts on different sub-bands may also be different, for example, there are different ending positions of downlink transmission bursts on different carriers for the network device, so that the network device may release the idle frequency-domain resources when the load of the network device is reduced, and the utilization rate of the frequency-domain resources may further be increased.

Optionally, in a specific implementation of the second embodiment, the first information is used to indicate that the first ending position of the first transmission burst needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing, and the first information is further used to indicate that a third ending position of the third transmission burst needs to be determined according to the second subcarrier spacing, an interval between the first ending position and the third ending position being less than or equal to a second preset value.

For example, in the third scenario, the first ending position of the first transmission burst may be a first ending position of the transmission burst on the first sub-band of the first carrier, and the third ending position of the third transmission burst may be a third ending position of the transmission burst on the second sub-band of the first carrier. Or, in the fourth scenario, the first ending position of the first transmission burst may be a first ending position of the transmission burst on the first carrier, and the third ending position of the third transmission burst may be a third ending position of the transmission burst on the second carrier. The first ending position and the third ending position may be different, and under this condition, a time interval between the first ending position and the third ending position is no more than the second preset value.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the second preset value may be 1 ms.

To sum up, in the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the first information transmitted on the first carrier may be used to indicate the determination manner for the time-domain resource information of the downlink transmission burst and/or uplink transmission burst on the first carrier and may further be used to indicate the determination manner for time-domain resource information of downlink transmission bursts and/or uplink transmission bursts on at least two sub-bands of the first carrier. The time-domain resource information of the at least two sub-bands is determined according to the same subcarrier spacing or determined according to different subcarrier spacings. Or, the first information may further be used to indicate a determination manner for time-domain resource information of a downlink transmission burst and/or uplink transmission burst on another carrier, for example, the second carrier. The time-domain resource information of the transmission burst on the second carrier and the time-domain resource information of the transmission burst on the first carrier are determined according to the same subcarrier spacing or determined according to different subcarrier spacings. There are no limits made thereto in the embodiment of the disclosure.

Optionally, in some embodiments, the method 200 may further include the following operation.

The network device transmits a downlink physical channel according to a third subcarrier spacing.

The third subcarrier spacing may be different from the first subcarrier spacing, namely the subcarrier spacing used for transmitting the downlink physical channel may be different from the subcarrier spacing used for determining the downlink transmission burst. That is, after the time-domain resource information of the downlink transmission burst is determined according to the first subcarrier spacing, during practical data transmission, the downlink physical channel may be transmitted according to the third subcarrier spacing different from the first subcarrier spacing. Of course, the network device may also transmit the downlink physical channel according to the first subcarrier spacing. There are no specific limits made thereto in the embodiment of the disclosure.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the first subcarrier spacing is, for example, 15 kHz, and the network device may determine the time-domain resource information of the first downlink transmission burst, for example, a channel occupancy duration in the first downlink transmission burst or the ending position, according to 15 kHz. During practical data transmission on the time-domain resource corresponding to the first downlink transmission burst, the network device, after channel detection is successful (for example, LBT is successful or Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) is successful), may transmit the downlink physical channel according to a subcarrier spacing the same as or different from the first subcarrier spacing (for example, according to one or more subcarrier spacings in 15 kHz, 30 kHz and 60 kHz).

For another example, as illustrated in FIG. 4, the first carrier may include a sub-band #1 and a sub-band #2, the first information may be used to indicate that the time-domain resource information of the first downlink transmission burst corresponding to the sub-band #1 needs to be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing (for example, 15 kHz) and may further be used to indicate that the time-domain resource information of the second downlink transmission burst corresponding to the sub-band #2 needs to be determined according to the second subcarrier spacing (for example, 30 kHz), and the ending positions of the downlink transmission bursts on the sub-band #1 and the sub-band #2 may be different. Optionally, a time interval between the ending positions may be less than or equal to the second preset value.

During practical data transmission in the sub-band #1 and the sub-band #2, the network device, after successful channel detection (for example, successful LBT or successful CCA) on the sub-bands, may transmit the downlink physical channel in the sub-band #1 according to a subcarrier spacing the same as or different from the first subcarrier spacing (for example, the downlink physical channel may be transmitted on the time-domain resource of the first downlink transmission burst in the sub-band #1 according to one or more subcarrier spacings in 15 kHz, 30 kHz and 60 kHz) and transmit the downlink physical channel in the sub-band #2 according to a subcarrier spacing the same as or different from the second subcarrier spacing (for example, the downlink physical channel may also be transmitted on the time-domain resource of the second downlink transmission burst in the sub-band #2 according to one or more subcarrier spacings in 15 kHz, 30 kHz and 60 kHz).

Optionally, in some embodiments, 5220 may specifically include the following operations.

The network device sends the first information to the terminal device according to the first subcarrier spacing through the first time-domain resource on the first carrier; or,

the network device sends the first information to the terminal device according to a fourth subcarrier spacing through the first time-domain resource on the first carrier.

The first subcarrier spacing is different from the fourth subcarrier spacing, that is, the subcarrier spacing used for sending the first information and the subcarrier spacing used for determining the downlink transmission burst may be the same and may also be different. Specifically, the network device may determine a downlink control resource used for sending the first information, and the downlink control resource may be determined according to the first subcarrier spacing and may also be determined according to another subcarrier spacing, which is not limited in the embodiment of the disclosure. The downlink control resource is the abovementioned first time-domain resource. Furthermore, the network device may send the first information on the downlink control resource on the first carrier according to the first subcarrier spacing or a subcarrier spacing that is not the first subcarrier spacing, for example, the fourth subcarrier spacing.

Therefore, according to the method for information transmission in the embodiment of the disclosure, the network device may indicate a determination manner for a time-domain resource position of a transmission burst on an unlicensed carrier through indication information. Optionally, if the unlicensed carrier includes at least two sub-bands, the indication information may further be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of transmission bursts in the at least two sub-bands needs to be determined according to the same reference subcarrier spacing (i.e., the first subcarrier spacing) or indicate that the time-domain resource information of the transmission burst in each sub-band needs to be determined according to an independent reference subcarrier spacing. Or, the first information may further be used to indicate that time-domain resource information of transmission bursts on at least two carriers needs to be determined according to the same reference subcarrier spacing or may further be used to indicate that the time-domain resource information of the transmission burst on each carrier needs to be determined according to an independent reference subcarrier spacing. Therefore, the terminal device and the network device may reach an agreement on time-domain resource positions of uplink transmission bursts and/or downlink transmission bursts, and normal data communication between the network device and the terminal device may be implemented.

The signal transmission method according to the embodiments of the disclosure is described above in combination with FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 from the perspective of the network device in detail.
