Information transmission method, terminal device, and access network device

An apparatus, the apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to the at least one processor and storing programming instructions for execution by the at least one processor, the programming instructions instructing the at least one processor to determine that resources for carrying N pieces of uplink control information (UCI) partly overlap or completely overlap in time domain, wherein the N pieces of UCI comprise at least one piece of beam channel quality information and at least one of a piece of channel state information or an acknowledgement (ACK)/a negative acknowledgement (NACK), wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and wherein the beam channel quality information is channel quality information of a beam configured for a terminal device;
• and
• a transmitter, configured to send M pieces of UCI to an access network device based on priorities of the N pieces of UCI, wherein priorities of the M pieces of UCI are higher than priorities of other N-M pieces of UCI in the N pieces of UCI, and wherein M is a positive integer less than or equal to N;
• wherein a priority of the beam channel quality information is higher than a priority of the channel state information, and wherein the priority of the beam channel quality information is lower than a priority of the ACK/NACK.

A non-transitory storage medium, the non-transitory storage medium storing program instructions, wherein the program instructions, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform:

• determining that resources for carrying N pieces of uplink control information (UCI) partly overlap or completely overlap in time domain, wherein the N pieces of UCI comprise at least one piece of beam channel quality information and at least one of a piece of channel state information or an acknowledgement (ACK)/a negative acknowledgement (NACK), wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and wherein the beam channel quality information is channel quality information of a beam configured for a terminal device;
• and
• sending M pieces of UCI to an access network device based on priorities of the N pieces of UCI, wherein priorities of the M pieces of UCI are higher than priorities of other N-M pieces of UCI in the N pieces of UCI, and wherein M is a positive integer less than or equal to N;
• wherein a priority of the beam channel quality information is higher than a priority of the channel state information, and wherein the priority of the beam channel quality information is lower than a priority of the ACK/NACK.
