Abstract
Disclosed by the present application is a method for indicating beam failure recovery, comprising: when conditions for triggering beam failure recovery are met, a terminal device sending a media access control (MAC) control element (CE), the MAC CE indicating a beam index corresponding to a beam used by a network device to send a feedback message. Further disclosed by the present application are another method for indicating beam failure recovery, a terminal device, a network device, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium.
Claims10
A method for indicating beam failure recovery BFR, comprising:
- when a condition for triggering BFR is met, sending, by a terminal device, a media access control MAC control element CE, the MAC CE indicating a beam index corresponding to a beam used for sending a feedback message by a network device;
- and
- receiving, by the terminal device, the feedback message, the feedback message being sent by a network device based on the beam corresponding to the beam index indicated by the MAC CE,
- wherein the method further comprises determining, by the terminal device, whether the BFR is successful based on the feedback message, further including:
- determining, by the terminal device, that the BFR is successful when downlink scheduling information sent by the network device is received, wherein the downlink scheduling information is sent by the network device based on a physical downlink control channel PDCCH scrambled by a cell-radio network temporary identity C-RNTI, and
- wherein before sending, by the terminal device, the MAC CE, the method further comprises:
- determining, by the terminal device, a downlink beam that meets a threshold condition;
- and
- taking the downlink beam that meets the threshold condition as the beam corresponding to the beam index indicated by the MAC CE, wherein the beam index is indicated by a single side band SSB index.

A method for indicating beam failure recovery BFR, comprising:
- sending, by a network device a single side band SSB index, to a terminal device;
- receiving, by the network device, a media access control MAC control element CE sent by the terminal device;
- and
- sending, by the network device, a feedback message to the terminal device based on a beam corresponding to a beam index indicated by the MAC CE;
- wherein the feedback message is used for determining whether the BFR is successful by the terminal device,
- wherein the method further comprises sending, by the network, downlink scheduling information based on a physical downlink control channel PDCCH scrambled by a cell-radio network temporary identity C-RNTI, and the downlink scheduling information is used by the terminal device for determining that the BFR is successful when the downlink scheduling information is received, and
- wherein the SSB index is used to indicate the beam index, and the beam index is used by the terminal device to determine a downlink beam that meets a threshold condition, and take the downlink beam that meets the threshold condition as the beam corresponding to the beam index indicated by the MAC CE.

A terminal device, comprising:
- a processor, a transceiver, and a memory for storing a computer program that is capable of running on the processor, wherein:
- the transceiver is configured to send a media access control MAC control element CE when a condition for triggering beam failure recovery BFR is met, the MAC CE indicating a beam index corresponding to a beam used for sending a feedback message by a network device, and
- the transceiver is further configured to receive the feedback message, the feedback message being sent by the network device based on the beam corresponding to the beam index indicated by the MAC CE,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- determine whether the BFR is successful based on the feedback message,
- determine that the BFR is successful when downlink scheduling information sent by the network device is received, wherein the downlink scheduling information is sent by the network device based on a physical downlink control channel PDCCH scrambled by a cell-radio network temporary identity C-RNTI, and
- determine, before sending the MAC CE, a downlink beam that meets a threshold condition, and take the downlink beam that meets the threshold condition as the beam corresponding to the beam index indicated by the MAC CE, wherein the beam index is indicated by a single side band SSB index.
