However, the following description describes a New Radio (NR) system for an exemplary objective, and uses NR terms in most of the following description, though such technologies may also be applied to applications except an NR system application, such as a 6th Generation (6G) communication system,

FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a wireless communication system that may be applied to an embodiment of this application; The wireless communication system includes a terminal 11 and a network device 12. The terminal 11 may also be referred to as a terminal device or a User Equipment (UE). The terminal 11 may be a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer, a laptop computer referred to as a notebook computer, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a palm personal computer, a netbook, an Ultra-Mobile Personal Computer (UMPC), a Mobile Internet Device (MID), a wearable device or a Vehicle User Equipment (VUE), a Pedestrian User Equipment (PUE), or other terminal side devices. The wearable device includes: a smart watch, an earphone, glasses, and the like. It should be noted that, a specific type of the terminal 11 is not limited in the embodiments of this application. The network side device 12 may be a base station or a core network, where the base station may be referred to as a node B, an evolved node B, an access point, a Base Transceiver Station (BTS), a radio base station, a radio transceiver, a Basic Service Set (BSS), an Extended Service Set (ESS), a node B, an evolved Node B (eNB), a home node B, a home evolved node B, a WLAN access point, a Wi-Fi node, a Transmitting Receiving Point (TRP), or another suitable term in the field. As long as the same technical effects can be achieved, the base station is not limited by a specific technical term. It should be noted that, a base station in the NR system is merely used as an example in the embodiments of this application, but a specific type of the base station is not limited.

For ease of comprehension of the embodiments of this application, the following contents are first described.

In a communication system, a shared spectrum, such as an unlicensed band, may be used as a supplement to a licensed band to help an operator perform capacity expansion on a service. To be consistent with NR deployment and maximize an unlicensed access based on NR as much as possible, the unlicensed band may work in bands of 5 GHz, 37 GHz, and 60 GHz. The unlicensed hand is shared by a plurality of Radio Access Technology (RAT), such as a Wi-Fi, a radar, an LTE-based Licensed-Assisted Access (LTE-LAA) to an unlicensed spectrum. Therefore, in some countries or areas, the unlicensed band that is used needs to comply with supervision regulations, to ensure that all devices may share the resource fairly, such as a Listen Before Talk (LBT) channel, or a Maximum Channel Occupancy Time (MCOT). When a transmission node needs to send information, LBT is required to be performed first on a specified radio channel, and an Energy Detection (ED) is performed in a surrounding wireless transmission environment, When detected energy is lower than a specific threshold, the channel is determined as idle, and then transmission is enabled to start. When the detected energy is higher than or equal to the specified. threshold, the channel is determined as busy, and the transmission node cannot perform sending. The transmission node may be a base station, a UE, a Wi-Fi Access Point (AP), or the like. After the transmission node starts transmission, an occupied channel time cannot be longer than the MCOT.

LBT can resolve some problems of channel interference. However, because LBT is all initiated by a transmitting end node, a problem of a hidden node of a receiving end node cannot be resolved. For example, LBT is performed by a gNB1 before sending data, and it is found through listening that a channel is idle, so the gNB1 sends data to a UE1 and the UE1 receives the data. In this case, a UE2 has data needing to be sent, and LBT is performed. Because the gNB1 is relatively distant, and the UE1 is in a receiving state, the UE2 finds through listening that the channel is idle, and starts to send the data. However, because the UE2 is quite close to the UE1, the UE1 can receive information sent from the UE2. In this case, the UE1 suffers from interference when receiving the data from the gNB1. The UE2 is a hidden node of the UE1.

To avoid the problem of the hidden node, for transmission of the unlicensed band, a handshake mechanism of RTS/CTS or a transmission request/transmission confirming mechanism is imported. A source node sends an RTS message before data transmission, and the RTS message carries a Network Allocation Vector (NAV) value and an address of a destination node, indicating a time for the node to occupy a channel. All nodes receiving the RTS message do not attempt to transmit data within an NAV time. After receiving the RTS message, the destination node replies with a CTS message, and the CTS message carries the NAV value and an address of the source node. All nodes receiving the CTS message do not attempt to perform transmission within the NAV time, thereby avoiding a problem of a hidden node surrounding the destination node.

To ensure that a communication process is performed smoothly, the following problems further need to be resolved:

1) A resource of RTS/CTS may collide with a resource of another uplink/downlink configured transmission, that is, there is an overlap between the resources. 2) An RTS initiating node may be a gNB, or may be a UE, and a corresponding CTS transmission node may be a UE or may be a gNB. All nodes need to detect an RTS message, and further need to detect a CTS message. In the NR, considering a manner of scheduling transmission, a UE that detects a CTS message without sending an RTS message cannot perform uplink transmission with a gNB. As a result, configured uplink transmission cannot be performed. 3) When an unnecessary detection is performed within a channel occupancy time indicated by an RTS message or a CTS message, power consumption of a UE increases.

In the embodiments of this application, a CTS message may also be referred to as a confirm to send message, or referred to as a confirm to transmit message.

The following describes the transmission control method provided in the embodiments of this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings by using specific embodiments and application scenarios thereof.

Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a transmission control method according to an embodiment of this application. The method is applied to a communication device, and the communication device may he a terminal, or may be a network side device. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes the following steps:

Step 21: A communication device cancels, in a case that a first message meets a preset condition, configured transmission.

In this embodiment of this application, the first message may include at least one of an RTS message or a CTS message.

In some embodiments, the foregoing step 21 may include: A terminal cancels, in a case that a transmission resource of the first message collides with a configured uplink transmission resource, transmission on the configured uplink transmission resource. In this way, a problem that a handshake signal may collide with other transmission signals when a channel access is performed by using a handshake mechanism in a shared spectrum can be resolved, thereby ensuring that a handshake process is completed as quickly as possible upon channel listening and ensuring that a communication process is performed smoothly.

For example, a network side device, such as a gNB in NR, may be configured with a semi-persistent uplink transmission resource. The terminal may perform uplink transmission such as configured grant uplink transmission CG UL transmission on the configured semi-persistent uplink transmission resource. Because these semi-persistent configured resources may not be used always, a transmission resource of RTS/CTS may overlap with these CG UL resources, to ensure that the handshake process is completed as quickly as possible upon channel listening. Therefore, when RTS/CTS transmission collides with the configured transmission, the terminal may cancel the configured uplink transmission.

In some embodiments, the foregoing step 21 may include: The network side device cancels, in a case that a transmission resource of the first message collides with a configured downlink transmission resource, transmission on the configured downlink transmission resource. In this way, a problem that a handshake signal may collide with other transmission signals when a channel access is performed by using a handshake mechanism in a shared spectrum can be resolved, thereby ensuring that a handshake process is completed as quickly as possible upon channel listening and ensuring that a communication process is performed smoothly.

For example, a network side device, such as a gNB in the NR, may be configured with a semi-persistent downlink transmission resource. The gNB may perform downlink transmission such as downlink semi-persistent scheduling DL SPS transmission on the semi-persistent downlink transmission resource. Because these semi-persistent configured resources may not be used always, a transmission resource of RTS/CTS may overlap with these DL SPS resources, to ensure that the handshake process is completed as quickly as possible upon channel listening. Therefore, when the RTS/CTS transmission collides with the configured transmission, the network side device may cancel configured downlink transmission.

In some embodiments, the foregoing step 21 may further include: The terminal cancels, in a case that the terminal receives a CTS message from a serving base station without sending an RTS message, and a time domain resource of Configured Grant (CG) uplink transmission overlaps with a channel occupancy time indicated by the CTS message, the CG uplink transmission.

In some embodiments, the foregoing canceling the CG uplink transmission may include any one of the following:

canceling CG uplink transmission on a time domain resource overlapping with the channel occupancy time; or

canceling CG uplink transmission on all time domain resources overlapping with the channel occupancy time.

In this way, when the time domain resource of the CG uplink transmission of the terminal overlaps with the channel occupancy time indicated by the CTS message, it may be ensured that the handshake process is completed as quickly as possible upon channel listening.

For example, if a UE receives a CTS message sent from a serving base station without sending an RTS message, and a time domain resource of CG uplink transmission of the UE, such as a time domain resource transmitted by a CG Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), overlaps with a channel occupancy time indicated by the CTS message, the UE cancels CG UL transmission. In some embodiments, the UE may cancel CG PUSCH transmission overlapping with the channel occupancy time, that is, as long as CG PUSCH overlaps with the indicated channel occupancy time, even if overlapping partially, the CG PUSCH transmission is canceled. In addition, the UE may cancel only a part of transmission that overlaps with the channel occupancy time, for example, only partial CG PUSCH transmission is canceled.

Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a transmission control method according to an embodiment of this application, and the method is applied to a terminal. As shown in FIG. 3, the method includes the following steps:

Step 31: In a case that a terminal detects an RTS message sent from a serving base station without being required to send a CTS message, the terminal skips performing a specific detection within a channel occupancy time indicated by the RTS message.

In some embodiments, the specific detection may include at least one of the following:

a detection of a CTS message;

a detection of a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH); or

a detection of a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH).

In this way, unnecessary signal detection operations may he reduced, and power consumption of the terminal is reduced.

For example, if a UE receives an RTS message sent from a serving base station, but the RTS message does not instruct the LTE to send a CTS message, indicating that the serving base station does not transmit data to the UE within an indicated channel occupancy time, the UE does not perform detection operations of a CTS message, a PDCCH, and an SPS PDSCH within the channel occupancy time indicated by the RTS message.

It should he noted that, the transmission control method provided in this application may be further applicable to a scenario of sidelink transmission, that is, a scenario of a communication between terminals, In the scenario of sidelink transmission, the transmission control method includes:

Step 10: A terminal cancels, in a case that a first message meets a preset condition, configured sidelink transmission, where the first message includes at least one of an RTS message or a CTS message.

In some embodiments, in a case that a transmission resource of the first message collides with a configured sidelink transmission resource, transmission on the configured sidelink transmission resource is canceled. In this way, a problem that a handshake signal may collide with other transmission signals when the sidelink transmission is performed by using a handshake mechanism in a shared spectrum can be resolved, thereby ensuring that a handshake process is completed as quickly as possible upon channel listening and ensuring that a communication process is performed smoothly.

In some alternative embodiments, in a case that the terminal receives a CTS message from another terminal without sending an RTS message, and a time domain resource of the sidelink transmission of the terminal overlaps with a channel occupancy time indicated by the CTS message, the sidelink transmission is canceled. In this way, when the time domain resource of the sidelink transmission of the terminal overlaps with the channel occupancy time indicated by the CTS message, it may be ensured that the handshake process is completed as quickly as possible upon channel listening.

In some alternative embodiments, in a case that the terminal detects an RTS message sent from another terminal without being required to send a CTS message, the terminal does not perform a specific detection within the channel occupancy time indicated by the RTS message. example, if a UE receives an RTS message sent from another UE, but the RTS message does not instruct the UE to send a CTS message, indicating that the another UE does not transmit data to the UE within an indicated channel occupancy time, the UE does not perform a specific detection. In this way, unnecessary signal detection operations may be reduced, and power consumption of the terminal is reduced.

In some embodiments, the specific detection may include at least one of the following:

a detection of a CTS message;

a detection of a Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH);

a detection of a Physical Sidelink Shared Channel (PSSCH); or

a detection of a Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel (PSFCH).
