Abstract
Provided by embodiments of the present disclosure are downlink monitoring and transmission methods and devices, a communication system, a terminal and a base station. The terminal has two different monitoring opportunity strategies for slots in a channel occupancy term (COT). The terminal can switch the monitoring opportunity strategy for downlink monitoring from a first monitoring opportunity strategy to a second monitoring opportunity strategy according to a switching triggered received from a base station.
Claims19
A downlink monitoring method, comprising:
- receiving first semi-static configuration information transmitted by a base station, and determining a first monitoring opportunity strategy according to the first semi-static configuration information;
- or, receiving second semi-static configuration information transmitted by a base station, and determining a second monitoring opportunity strategy according to the second semi-static configuration information;
- receiving, by a terminal, a switching trigger;
- and
- switching, by the terminal according to the switching trigger, a monitoring opportunity strategy for downlink monitoring from the first monitoring opportunity strategy which is currently used to the second monitoring opportunity strategy.
A downlink transmission method, comprising:
- sending, by a base station to a terminal, a switching trigger for triggering switching of a monitoring opportunity strategy for downlink monitoring from a first monitoring opportunity strategy to a second monitoring opportunity strategy;
- determining, by the base station based on the second monitoring opportunity strategy, a transmission starting time-frequency position of the downlink information to be transmitted to the terminal;
- and
- transmitting, by the base station, the downlink information to the terminal at the transmission starting time-frequency position.
A downlink monitoring device, comprising a memory storing instructions and a processor in communication with the memory, wherein the processor is configured to execute the instruction to:
- receive first semi-static configuration information transmitted by a base station, and determine a first monitoring opportunity strategy according to the first semi-static configuration information;
- or, receive second semi-static configuration information transmitted by a base station, and determine a second monitoring opportunity strategy according to the second semi-static configuration information;
- receive a switching trigger;
- and
- switch, according to the switching trigger, a monitoring opportunity strategy for downlink monitoring from the first monitoring opportunity strategy which is currently used to the second monitoring opportunity strategy.
