Method and device for determining detection information about search spaces

A device for determining detection information about search spaces, comprising a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and capable of being executed by a processor, wherein the processor is used to execute the computer program to implement a method for determining the detection information about search spaces comprising:

• in a case that at least two search spaces are being detected by a User Equipment (UE) and a sum of initial quantities of pieces of detection information about the at least two search spaces is greater than a total quantity of pieces of detection information supported by the UE, determining a first quantity of pieces of detection information about each of the at least two search spaces, wherein
• determining the first quantity of pieces of detection information about each search space in accordance with the total quantity of pieces of detection information supported by the UE, including:
• determining an allocation weight value about each search space in accordance with a predetermined configuration parameter;
• determining an allocation ratio of each search space in accordance with the allocation weight value;
• and
• determining the first quantity of pieces of detection information about each search space in accordance with the allocation ratio and the total quantity of pieces of detection information supported by the UE;
• wherein:
• a sum of the first quantities of pieces of detection information about the at least two search spaces is smaller than or equal to the total quantity of pieces of detection information;
• and
• the detection information comprises a physical downlink control channel (Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH) candidate or PDCCH channel estimate.
