US 2025/0168668 A1 · MONITORING METHOD, TERMINAL DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Abstract

A monitoring method includes: not expecting to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a target type common search space (CSS) set or not expecting to monitor a PDCCH in a Type1-PDCCH CSS set, if a quasi-co-location type D (QCL-TypeD) property of a first demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) for monitoring the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set is different from a QCL-TypeD property of a second DM-RS for monitoring the PDCCH in the target type CSS set, and if the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) associated with the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set overlaps in at least one symbol with the PDCCH in the target type CSS set or with a PDSCH associated with the PDCCH in the target type CSS set, where the target type is Type0B-PDCCH, and/or Type2A-PDCCH, and/or Type1A-PDCCH.

Dependent claims

A monitoring method, performed by a terminal device and comprising:

not expecting to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a target type common search space (CSS) set or not expecting to monitor a PDCCH in a Type1-PDCCH CSS set, in response to a quasi-co-location type D (QCL-TypeD) property of a first demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) being different from a QCL-TypeD property of a second DM-RS and in response to the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) associated with the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set overlapping in at least one symbol with the PDCCH in the target type CSS set or with a PDSCH associated with the PDCCH in the target type CSS set, the first DM-RS being used for monitoring the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set, the second DM-RS being used for monitoring the PDCCH in the target type CSS set, and the target type being Type0B-PDCCH, and/or Type2A-PDCCH, and/or Type1A-PDCCH.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer programs which, when executed a communication device, cause the communication device to carry out actions, comprising:

not expecting to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a target type common search space (CSS) set or not expecting to monitor a PDCCH in a Type1-PDCCH CSS set, in response to a quasi-co-location type D (QCL-TypeD) property of a first demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) being different from a QCL-TypeD property of a second DM-RS and in response to the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) associated with the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set overlapping in at least one symbol with the PDCCH in the target type CSS set or with a PDSCH associated with the PDCCH in the target type CSS set, the first DM-RS being used for monitoring the PDCCH in the Type1-PDCCH CSS set, the second DM-RS being used for monitoring the PDCCH in the target type CSS set, and the target type being Type0B-PDCCH, and/or Type2A-PDCCH, and/or Type1A-PDCCH.
