Signal transmission method for discontinuous reception, terminal device and network device

A terminal device, comprising:

• a processor, configured to determine at least one start time point for entering an activated state of radio resource control (RRC) active discontinuous reception (DRX);
• and
• a transceiver, configured to receive, at each of the at least one start time point determined by the processor, a first signal sent by a network device, the first signal being used by the terminal device to determine, from at least one downlink receiving beam, a target downlink receiving beam for receiving and decoding a downlink control channel sent by the network device during the activated state of the RRC active DRX;
• wherein the processor is further configured to determine a plurality of sending time points according to a transmission period of the first signal;
• and
• wherein the transceiver is further configured to:
• receive, at a first sending time point in the plurality of sending time points, the first signal sent by the network device, in response to determining that the first sending time point is different from each of the at least one start time point;
• and
• receive, in response to determining that a second sending time point in the plurality of sending time points is same as a second start time point among the at least one start time point, the first signal at the second sending time point according to the transmission period of the first signal.

A non-transitory computer readable medium, configured to store a computer program, wherein the computer program comprises instructions for implementing a signal transmission method, the method comprising:

• determining at least one start time point for entering an activated state of radio resource control (RRC) active discontinuous reception (DRX);
• and
• receiving, at each of the at least one start time point, a first signal sent by a network device, the first signal being used by a terminal device to determine, from at least one downlink receiving beam, a target downlink receiving beam for receiving and decoding a downlink control channel sent by the network device during the activated state of the RRC active DRX,
• wherein the method further comprises:
• determining a plurality of sending time points according to a transmission period of the first signal;
• receiving, at a first sending time point in the plurality of sending time points, the first signal sent by the network device, if the first sending time point is different from each of the at least one start time point;
• and
• receiving, in response to determining that a second sending time point in the plurality of sending time points is same as a second start time point among the at least one start time point, the first signal at the second sending time point according to the transmission period of the first signal.
