Description

一种定位信息传输方法、装置、存储介质和芯片系统A positioning information transmission method, device, storage medium and chip system

技术领域technical field

本申请涉及无线通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种定位信息传输方法、装置、存储介质和芯片系统。The present application relates to the technical field of wireless communication, and in particular to a positioning information transmission method, device, storage medium and chip system.

背景技术Background technique

在3GPP标准中,支持下行到达时间差(down link-time of arrival,DL-TDOA)、下行离开角(down link-angle of departure,DL-AOD)、上行到达时间差(up link-time ofarrival,UL-TDOA)、上行到达角(up link-angle of arrival,UL-AOA)、往返时延(roundtrip time,RTT)等多种定位技术。其中DL-TDOA、UL-TDOA以及RTT算法是基于到达时间的定位技术,即需要接收端来测量发送端发送的信号的到达时间,进而换算成二者之间的距离信息,最后得到待定位目标的位置。DL-AOD和UL-AOA是基于角度的定位技术,即接收端测量发送端发送的参考信号的到达角度,然后根据接收方与已知位置的多个发送端的角度信息来推断接收方的位置。In the 3GPP standard, it supports downlink-time of arrival (DL-TDOA), downlink-angle of departure (DL-AOD), uplink-time of arrival (UL- TDOA), uplink angle of arrival (up link-angle of arrival, UL-AOA), round trip time delay (roundtrip time, RTT) and other positioning technologies. Among them, DL-TDOA, UL-TDOA and RTT algorithms are positioning technologies based on time of arrival, that is, the receiving end is required to measure the arrival time of the signal sent by the sending end, and then converted into the distance information between the two, and finally the target to be positioned is obtained s position. DL-AOD and UL-AOA are angle-based positioning technologies, that is, the receiver measures the angle of arrival of the reference signal sent by the transmitter, and then infers the receiver's position based on the angle information between the receiver and multiple transmitters with known positions.

对于DL-TDOA、DL-AoA、RTT等定位技术,目前仅支持终端设备与基站之间基于定位参考信号(positioning reference signal,PRS)的测量,因此在侧行链路中,如何传输定位信息成为亟需解决的问题。For positioning technologies such as DL-TDOA, DL-AoA, and RTT, currently only supports the measurement based on positioning reference signal (PRS) between the terminal equipment and the base station, so in the sidelink, how to transmit positioning information becomes Problems that need to be solved urgently.

发明内容Contents of the invention

本申请提供一种定位信息传输方法、装置、存储介质和芯片系统,用于通过广播或组播的方式基于侧行链路发送各个终端设备对应的定位参考信号的测量结果,以解决侧行链路中传输定位信息的问题,且也可以提高测量结果的传输效率。The present application provides a positioning information transmission method, device, storage medium, and chip system, which are used to transmit the measurement results of positioning reference signals corresponding to each terminal device based on the sidelink through broadcast or multicast, so as to solve the problem of sidelink It solves the problem of transmitting positioning information on the road, and can also improve the transmission efficiency of measurement results.

第一方面,提供了一种定位信息传输方法。该方法可以由第一终端设备执行,或者由第一终端设备内部的模块、单元、芯片执行。该方法中,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一侧行链路定位参考信号,通过广播或组播方式发送第一消息。第一消息包括第一信息,第一信息包括第一指示信息和第二指示信息。In a first aspect, a positioning information transmission method is provided. The method may be executed by the first terminal device, or by a module, unit, or chip inside the first terminal device. In this method, the first terminal device receives the first sidelink positioning reference signal from the second terminal device, and sends the first message in a broadcast or multicast manner. The first message includes first information, and the first information includes first indication information and second indication information.

第一信息中的第二指示信息指示侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,第一信息中的第一指示信息用于指示该第二指示信息指示的测量结果为第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,如此,第二终端设备可以在组播或广播发送的第一消息中找到第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量报告。第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量报告用于确定第二终端设备的位置,第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量报告可以称为第二终端设备的定位信息。The second indication information in the first information indicates the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal, and the first indication information in the first information is used to indicate that the measurement result indicated by the second indication information is the first sidelink positioning The measurement result of the reference signal, in this way, the second terminal device can find the measurement report of the first sidelink positioning reference signal in the first message sent by multicast or broadcast. The measurement report of the first sidelink positioning reference signal is used to determine the position of the second terminal device, and the measurement report of the first sidelink positioning reference signal may be referred to as positioning information of the second terminal device.

由于在侧行链路通信中,在一次单播消息的发送过程中,第一终端设备需要先查找出可用的资源,在一个时隙中仅可以发送一次控制信息,即在一个时隙中仅可以调度一次资源,继而通过该资源向一个终端设备发送该单播的消息。若采用单播形式向多个终端设备发送多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,则第一终端设备需要在多个时隙分别发送多次控制信息,以便调度多个资源来发送该多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。可以看出,该方案时延较大。In the sidelink communication, during the sending process of a unicast message, the first terminal device needs to find out the available resources first, and the control information can only be sent once in a time slot, that is, in a time slot only A resource can be scheduled once, and then the unicast message is sent to a terminal device through the resource. If the measurement results of multiple sidelink positioning reference signals are sent to multiple terminal devices in unicast form, the first terminal device needs to send control information multiple times in multiple time slots, so as to schedule multiple resources to send the Measurement results of multiple sidelink positioning reference signals. It can be seen that the time delay of this scheme is relatively large.

而本申请中,第一终端设备可以将多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果放在一个信息中,在一个时隙中通过一次控制信息调度一个资源进行发送。也就是说,本申请中第一终端设备在一个时隙调度一次资源可以发送该多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,从而可以减少时延,提高侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果的传输效率。However, in the present application, the first terminal device may put the measurement results of multiple sidelink positioning reference signals into one message, and schedule one resource for transmission in one time slot through one control message. That is to say, in this application, the first terminal device can send the measurement results of the multiple sidelink positioning reference signals by scheduling a resource in one time slot, thereby reducing the delay and improving the measurement of the sidelink positioning reference signals The transfer efficiency of the results.

在一种可能的实施方式中,第一指示信息指示以下内容中的至少一项:第二终端设备的标识信息,第一侧行链路定位参考信号的资源的标识信息,或,第一侧行链路定位参考信号的指示信息。其中,第一侧行链路定位参考信号的指示信息包括:第一侧行链路定位参考信号的时域资源信息,和/或,所述第一侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值。In a possible implementation manner, the first indication information indicates at least one of the following: identification information of the second terminal device, identification information of resources of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, or, the first side The indication information of the uplink positioning reference signal. Wherein, the indication information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal includes: time domain resource information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, and/or, an index value of the first sidelink positioning reference signal.

由于第一指示信息的实现形式有多种,因此本申请可以有多种方案用于指示出定位参考信号的测量报告应该属于哪个终端设备,如此,可以提高方案的灵活性。Since there are multiple implementation forms of the first indication information, the present application may have various schemes for indicating which terminal device the measurement report of the positioning reference signal should belong to, and thus, the flexibility of the scheme may be improved.

在一种可能的实施方式中,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一侧行链路定位参考信号之前,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第三消息,第三消息包括第一侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息;所述第三消息通过单播、组播或广播的方式发送。In a possible implementation manner, before the first terminal device receives the first sidelink positioning reference signal from the second terminal device, the first terminal device receives a third message from the second terminal device, where the third message includes Scheduling information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal; the third message is sent by unicast, multicast or broadcast.

如此,第一终端设备可以将第三消息携带的所述第二终端设备的标识信息,所述第一侧行链路定位参考信号的资源的标识信息,或,所述第一侧行链路定位参考信号的指示信息中的至少一项作为第一指示信息,以便第二终端设备根据第一指示信息从第一消息中找到第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。而且,当第三消息通过组播广播的方式发送,多个终端设备可以接收到来自第二终端设备的由第三消息调度的第一侧行链路定位参考信号,从而可以由多个终端设备向第二终端设备反馈多个第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,从而可以提高第二终端设备的定位精度。In this way, the first terminal device may use the identification information of the second terminal device carried in the third message, the identification information of resources of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, or the first sidelink At least one item of indication information of the positioning reference signal is used as the first indication information, so that the second terminal device can find the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal from the first message according to the first indication information. Moreover, when the third message is sent by way of multicast broadcast, multiple terminal devices may receive the first sidelink positioning reference signal scheduled by the third message from the second terminal device, so that multiple terminal devices may receive The measurement results of the plurality of first sidelink positioning reference signals are fed back to the second terminal device, so that the positioning accuracy of the second terminal device can be improved.

The first measurement request message includes at least one of the following: identification information of the second terminal device, identification information of resources of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, or, the first sidelink The indication information of the road positioning reference signal. For example, the identification information of the second terminal device may include the identification of the second terminal device, the index value of the identification of the second terminal device, the hash value of the identification of the second terminal device, or the first random number corresponding to the second terminal device at least one of the .

如此,第一终端设备可以将第一测量请求消息携带的第二终端设备的标识信息作为第一指示信息,以便第二终端设备根据第一指示信息从第一消息中找到第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。In this way, the first terminal device may use the identification information of the second terminal device carried in the first measurement request message as the first indication information, so that the second terminal device can find the first sidelink from the first message according to the first indication information The measurement result of the positioning reference signal.

在一种可能的实施方式中,第一测量请求消息包括第一定位测量类型信息,第一定位测量类型信息指示第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果的类型。In a possible implementation manner, the first measurement request message includes first positioning measurement type information, and the first positioning measurement type information indicates a type of a measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal.

如此,第二终端设备可以灵活的指示第一终端设备对第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量,从而可以提高方案的灵活性。In this way, the second terminal device can flexibly instruct the first terminal device to measure the first sidelink positioning reference signal, thereby improving the flexibility of the solution.

在一种可能的实施方式中,第一终端设备还接收来自第三终端设备的第二侧行链路定位参考信号。第一消息还包括第二信息,第二信息包括第三指示信息和第四指示信息。第三指示信息指示以下内容中的至少一项:第三终端设备的标识信息,第二侧行链路定位参考信号的资源的标识信息,或,第二侧行链路定位参考信号的指示信息。第四指示信息指示第二侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,第二侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果用于确定第三终端设备的位置。In a possible implementation manner, the first terminal device further receives the second sidelink positioning reference signal from the third terminal device. The first message further includes second information, and the second information includes third indication information and fourth indication information. The third indication information indicates at least one of the following: identification information of the third terminal device, identification information of resources of the second sidelink positioning reference signal, or indication information of the second sidelink positioning reference signal . The fourth indication information indicates the measurement result of the second sidelink positioning reference signal, and the measurement result of the second sidelink positioning reference signal is used to determine the position of the third terminal device.

如此,第一消息中可以至少包括第一信息和第二信息等多个信息,从而可以提高侧行链路定位参考信号的传输效率。In this way, the first message may at least include a plurality of information such as the first information and the second information, so that the transmission efficiency of the sidelink positioning reference signal may be improved.

在一种可能的实施方式中,第一终端设备接收来自第二终端设备的第一侧行链路定位参考信号之前,第一终端设备发送第二消息,第二消息包括时间信息。In a possible implementation manner, before the first terminal device receives the first sidelink positioning reference signal from the second terminal device, the first terminal device sends a second message, where the second message includes time information.

在时间信息指示:第一终端设备接收侧行链路定位参考信号的时间的情况下,第一侧行链路定位参考信号到达第一终端设备的时间可以位于时间信息指示的时间内。In the case where the time information indicates: the time when the first terminal device receives the sidelink positioning reference signal, the time when the first sidelink positioning reference signal arrives at the first terminal device may be within the time indicated by the time information.

在时间信息指示:向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间的情况下,第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间可以位于时间信息指示的时间内。In the case where the time information indicates: the time for sending the sidelink positioning reference signal to the first terminal device, the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal may be within the time indicated by the time information.

本申请中,第一终端设备可以通过广播或组播的方式发送第二消息,继而可以通知一个或多个其他的终端设备可以在哪个时间段内向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号。也就是说,第一终端设备可以在设定的一段或多段时间段内接收来自其他终端设备的侧行链路定位参考信号。如此,第一终端设备可以不必一直处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”,而是可以灵活的选择一段或多段时间段处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”。第一终端设备处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”,则第一终端设备需要持续监听来自其他终端设备的侧行链路定位参考信号。而当第一终端设备不处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”,则第一终端设备可以不必再监听来自其他终端设备的侧行链路定位参考信号,继而可以执行其他任务。可以看出,第一终端设备通过设置可以接收侧行链路定位参考信号的时间的方式,可以使自身的工作模式更加灵活,而且也可以为第一终端设备执行其他任务提供更多的时间。In this application, the first terminal device may send the second message in a broadcast or multicast manner, and then notify one or more other terminal devices within which time period the sidelink positioning reference signal can be sent to the first terminal device . That is to say, the first terminal device may receive sidelink positioning reference signals from other terminal devices within one or more set time periods. In this way, the first terminal device does not have to be in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state" all the time, but can flexibly select one or more time periods to be in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state". If the first terminal device is in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state", the first terminal device needs to continuously monitor sidelink positioning reference signals from other terminal devices. However, when the first terminal device is not in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state", the first terminal device does not need to monitor sidelink positioning reference signals from other terminal devices, and then can perform other tasks. It can be seen that the first terminal device can make its own working mode more flexible by setting the time when it can receive the sidelink positioning reference signal, and can also provide more time for the first terminal device to perform other tasks.

在一种可能的实施方式中,时间信息包括以下内容中的至少一项:时隙的索引值、时隙的索引值的集合、时隙集合的索引值,或时间窗的信息。如此,可以提高方案的灵活性。In a possible implementation manner, the time information includes at least one of the following: an index value of a time slot, a set of index values of a time slot, an index value of a set of time slots, or time window information. In this way, the flexibility of the scheme can be improved.

时隙索引值的集合包括多个时隙索引值。时隙集合的索引值指示时隙集合,时隙集合包括一个或多个时隙。时间窗的信息包括:时间窗的长度、偏移或周期中的至少一项。The set of slot index values includes a plurality of slot index values. The index value of the slot set indicates a slot set including one or more slots. The information of the time window includes: at least one of the length, offset, or period of the time window.

其中,时间信息还包括第一时间参考点,第一时间参考点为时隙的索引值、时隙集合的索引值或时间窗的参考点,比如第一时间参考点包括系统帧号(system framenumber,SFN)#0或直接帧号(Direct Frame Number,DFN)#0。Wherein, the time information also includes a first time reference point. The first time reference point is an index value of a time slot, an index value of a time slot set, or a reference point of a time window. For example, the first time reference point includes a system frame number (system frame number , SFN) #0 or Direct Frame Number (Direct Frame Number, DFN) #0.

在一种可能的实施方式中,第一终端设备发送第二消息之后,第一终端设备发送第三侧行链路定位参考信号。In a possible implementation manner, after the first terminal device sends the second message, the first terminal device sends the third sidelink positioning reference signal.

在第一终端设备向其他终端设备(以第二终端设备为例)发送第三侧行链路的情况下,第二终端设备可以对第三侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,比如可以应用RTT技术对第二终端设备进行定位,这种情况下,第二终端设备可以测量接收到第三侧行链路定位参考信号和发送第一侧行链路定位参考信号的时间差,第一终端设备可以测量发送点侧行链路定位参考信号和接收到第一侧行链路定位参考信号的时间差,该两个时间差可以基于RTT技术对第二终端设备进行定位。In the case where the first terminal device sends the third sidelink to other terminal devices (taking the second terminal device as an example), the second terminal device may measure the positioning reference signal of the third sidelink, for example, the The RTT technology locates the second terminal device. In this case, the second terminal device can measure the time difference between receiving the third sidelink positioning reference signal and sending the first sidelink positioning reference signal, and the first terminal device The time difference between the sidelink positioning reference signal at the sending point and the reception of the first sidelink positioning reference signal may be measured, and the two time differences may be used to locate the second terminal device based on the RTT technology.

在一种可能的实施方式中,第一终端设备发送第二消息之后,第一终端设备发送第三侧行链路定位参考信号之前,本申请中第一终端设备可以通过单播、组播或广播的方式发送第五消息,第五消息包括指示第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息。In a possible implementation manner, after the first terminal device sends the second message and before the first terminal device sends the third sidelink positioning reference signal, in this application, the first terminal device may use unicast, multicast or The fifth message is sent in a broadcast manner, where the fifth message includes scheduling information indicating the third sidelink positioning reference signal.

如此,接收到第五消息的终端设备可以根据第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息接收第三侧行链路定位参考信号。当第五消息通过组播或广播方式发送时,可以由多个终端设备接收由第五消息调度的第三侧行链路定位参考信号,继而可以由多个终端设备得到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,该多个终端设备可以依据得到的第三侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果进行定位,可以看出,该方案可以减少第一终端设备发送的侧行链路定位参考信号的数量。In this way, the terminal device receiving the fifth message may receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal according to the scheduling information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. When the fifth message is sent by multicast or broadcast, multiple terminal devices can receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal scheduled by the fifth message, and then multiple terminal devices can obtain the third sidelink positioning reference signal The measurement result of the positioning reference signal, the multiple terminal devices can perform positioning according to the obtained measurement result of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. It can be seen that this solution can reduce the number of sidelink positioning signals sent by the first terminal device. The number of reference signals.

在一种可能的实施方式中,时间信息还包括时间间隔指示信息。时间间隔指示信息可以指示第一终端设备接收侧行链路定位参考信号的时间与第二时间参考点之间的时间间隔。本申请中的时间间隔可以为时隙间隔或子帧间隔。或者,时间间隔指示信息可以指示向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间与第二时间参考点之间的时间间隔。In a possible implementation manner, the time information further includes time interval indication information. The time interval indication information may indicate the time interval between the time when the first terminal device receives the sidelink positioning reference signal and the second time reference point. The time interval in this application may be a time slot interval or a subframe interval. Alternatively, the time interval indication information may indicate the time interval between the time when the sidelink positioning reference signal is sent to the first terminal device and the second time reference point.

在第三侧行链路定位参考信号为周期性发送的情况下,第二时间参考点包括第三侧行链路定位参考信号的一个发送周期内的时间。在第三侧行链路定位参考信号为非周期性发送的情况下,第二时间参考点包括:第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间,或接收到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的时间。In the case that the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent periodically, the second time reference point includes the time within one sending period of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. In the case that the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent aperiodically, the second time reference point includes: the transmission time of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, or when the third sidelink positioning reference signal is received signal time.

由于第一终端设备可以通过第二消息携带时间信息,进而可以指示其他终端设备(以第二终端设备为例)向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间,因此第一终端设备可以将第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间与第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间设置的较近一些,也可以理解为:第一终端设备可以将第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间与第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间尽量接近。由于在侧行链路中,终端设备可能处于移动状态,因此第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间与第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间尽量接近可以尽量降低侧行链路场景中终端设备移动性的影响,同时也可以降低第一终端设备测量第一侧行链路定位参考信号的复杂度。Since the first terminal device can carry time information through the second message, and then can indicate the time when other terminal devices (taking the second terminal device as an example) send the sidelink positioning reference signal to the first terminal device, the first terminal device The sending time of the third sidelink positioning reference signal can be set closer to the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, which can also be understood as: the first terminal device can send the third sidelink positioning reference signal to The sending time of the positioning reference signal is as close as possible to the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal. Since the terminal equipment may be in a moving state in the sidelink, the sending time of the third sidelink positioning reference signal is as close as possible to the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal to minimize the sidelink The impact of the mobility of the terminal device in the scene can also reduce the complexity of measuring the first sidelink positioning reference signal by the first terminal device.

在一种可能的实施方式中,在第三侧行链路定位参考信号为周期性发送的情况下,第二消息还包括:第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息。In a possible implementation manner, in a case where the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent periodically, the second message further includes: period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal.

如此,其他终端设备可以根据第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息周期性的接收第三侧行链路定位参考信号,而且由于第三侧行链路定位参考信号周期性发送,因此其他终端设备可以只接收一次第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息,之后依据该第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息可以接收多次第三侧行链路定位参考信号,从而可以节省第一终端设备向其他终端设备通知第三侧行链路定位参考信号的配置信息的次数,节省资源。In this way, other terminal devices can periodically receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal according to the period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, and since the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent periodically, other The terminal device may only receive the period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal once, and then receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal multiple times according to the period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, so that The number of times the first terminal device notifies other terminal devices of the configuration information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal is saved, and resources are saved.

Several positioning technologies applicable to the embodiments of the present application are listed below:

在第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd generation partnership project,3GPP)版本16(Release 16,Rel-16)中引入了SL信道状态信息(channel state information,CSI)-参考信号(reference signal,RS)配置框架,以下,对SL-CSI的触发流程进行说明。The SL channel state information (CSI)-reference signal (RS) configuration framework was introduced in 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) Release 16 (Release 16, Rel-16) , the following describes the triggering process of the SL-CSI.

参阅图3,为SL CSI的触发流程的一种可能的示意图。如图3所示,终端设备之间的SL CSI上报只涉及两个终端设备之间的通信,为便于描述分别将两个终端设备称为UE2和UE1。其中,UE2希望获取UE1测量SL CSI-RS得到的SL CSI。触发流程可以包括如下步骤。Referring to FIG. 3 , it is a possible schematic diagram of a triggering process of the SL CSI. As shown in FIG. 3 , the SL CSI reporting between terminal devices only involves the communication between two terminal devices. For the convenience of description, the two terminal devices are respectively referred to as UE2 and UE1. Wherein, UE2 wishes to acquire the SL CSI obtained by measuring the SL CSI-RS of UE1. The triggering process may include the following steps.

步骤301,UE2向UE1发送PC5无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)信令。Step 301, UE2 sends PC5 radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) signaling to UE1.

该PC5 RRC信令包括SL CSI-RS的配置信息以及SL CSI的配置信息。The PC5 RRC signaling includes SL CSI-RS configuration information and SL CSI configuration information.

其中,SL CSI-RS的配置信息包括SL CSI-RS的端口数,时隙内符号索引和符号上资源块(resource block,RB)内的资源元素(resource element,RE)索引。可选的,SL CSI-RS的配置信息里不包括SL CSI-RS的时隙以及带宽。主要原因是SL CSI-RS需要在物理侧行共享信道(physical sidelink shared channel,PSSCH)包含的子信道上发送,也就是SLCSI-RS占用的时隙和带宽与PSSCH占用的时隙和带宽相同,因此可以省略配置。Wherein, the configuration information of the SL CSI-RS includes the port number of the SL CSI-RS, the symbol index in the time slot and the resource element (resource element, RE) index in the resource block (resource block, RB) on the symbol. Optionally, the configuration information of the SL CSI-RS does not include the time slot and bandwidth of the SL CSI-RS. The main reason is that the SL CSI-RS needs to be sent on the subchannel contained in the physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH), that is, the time slot and bandwidth occupied by the SLCSI-RS are the same as the time slot and bandwidth occupied by the PSSCH. Therefore configuration can be omitted.

另外,上述PC5 RRC信令配置的SL CSI的配置信息可以包括SL CSI的时延界。其中,SL CSI的时延界用于指示SL CSI-RS的测量和SL CSI上报的时长。In addition, the configuration information of the SL CSI configured by the above PC5 RRC signaling may include the delay bound of the SL CSI. Wherein, the SL CSI delay bound is used to indicate the duration of SL CSI-RS measurement and SL CSI reporting.

步骤302a,UE2向UE1发送物理侧行控制信道(physical sidelink controlchannel,PSCCH)。Step 302a, UE2 sends a physical sidelink control channel (physical sidelink control channel, PSCCH) to UE1.

其中,PSCCH承载第一类型侧行链路控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI)(1st stage SCI,SCI format 1-A),指示PSSCH的调度信息以及PSCCH预约信息。Wherein, the PSCCH carries the first type of sidelink control information (sidelink control information, SCI) (1st stage SCI, SCI format 1-A), indicating the scheduling information of the PSSCH and the PSCCH reservation information.

其中,PSSCH的调度信息包括PSSCH包含的子信道的带宽,该PSSCH包含的子信道用于承载SL CSI-RS。Wherein, the scheduling information of the PSSCH includes the bandwidth of the subchannel included in the PSSCH, and the subchannel included in the PSSCH is used to bear the SL CSI-RS.

步骤302b,UE2向UE1发送物理侧行共享信道(physical sidelink sharedchannel,PSSCH)以及SL CSI-RS。In step 302b, UE2 sends a physical sidelink shared channel (physical sidelink shared channel, PSSCH) and SL CSI-RS to UE1.

其中,PSSCH包含的子信道用于承载SL CSI-RS。PSSCH承载第二类型SCI(2ndstage SCI,SCI format 2-A/2-B),以及SL-共享信道(shared channel,SCH)载荷。其中2ndstage SCI指示SL-SCH载荷的信息以及对SL-SCH解调的反馈指示。Wherein, the sub-channels included in the PSSCH are used to carry SL CSI-RS. The PSSCH carries the second type SCI (2ndstage SCI, SCI format 2-A/2-B), and SL-shared channel (shared channel, SCH) load. The 2ndstage SCI indicates SL-SCH load information and feedback indication for SL-SCH demodulation.

同时2nd stage SCI还可以触发SL CSI-RS的接收,也就是指示UE1接收SL CSI-RS。UE1收到的2nd stage SCI中CSI请求(CSI request)字段设置为1时,UE1在PSSCH所在时隙内接收SLCSI-RS,接收带宽与1st stage SCI指示的PSSCH包含的子信道对应的带宽一样。At the same time, the 2nd stage SCI can also trigger the reception of the SL CSI-RS, that is, instruct UE1 to receive the SL CSI-RS. When the CSI request (CSI request) field in the 2nd stage SCI received by UE1 is set to 1, UE1 receives the SLCSI-RS in the time slot where the PSSCH is located, and the receiving bandwidth is the same as the bandwidth corresponding to the subchannel contained in the PSSCH indicated by the 1st stage SCI.

步骤303,UE1在SL CSI的时延界内完成SL CSI-RS测量,生成SL CSI报告。Step 303 , UE1 completes SL CSI-RS measurement within the SL CSI delay bound, and generates SL CSI report.

步骤304,UE1向UE2发送PSCCH和PSSCH。Step 304, UE1 sends PSCCH and PSSCH to UE2.

其中,PSSCH中的SL-SCH载荷携带SL CSI报告(SL CSI reporting)。具体的,SLCSI报告由SL-SCH中的媒体接入控制(media access control,MAC)控制元素(controlelement,CE)携带。Wherein, the SL-SCH payload in the PSSCH carries SL CSI reporting (SL CSI reporting). Specifically, the SLCSI report is carried by a media access control (media access control, MAC) control element (controlelement, CE) in the SL-SCH.

若将SLCSI-RS的配置方式直接迁移至SL PRS的配置方式会带来新的问题。比如,步骤304中UE1通过单播的方式向UE2发送SL CSI。但是在定位场景中,一个UE1可能会接收来自多个终端设备(比如UE2和UE3等多个终端设备)的SL PRS,UE1需要对每个接收到的SLPRS进行测量,且需要将每个SL PRS对应的测量结果返回至该SL PRS对应的终端设备。也就是说,在定位场景中,UE1可能需要向大量的终端设备返回SL PRS的测量结果。If the configuration mode of the SLCSI-RS is directly migrated to the configuration mode of the SL PRS, new problems will arise. For example, in step 304, UE1 sends SL CSI to UE2 through unicast. However, in a positioning scenario, a UE1 may receive SL PRSs from multiple terminal devices (such as multiple terminal devices such as UE2 and UE3), UE1 needs to measure each received SLPRS, and needs to measure each SL PRS The corresponding measurement result is returned to the terminal equipment corresponding to the SL PRS. That is to say, in a positioning scenario, UE1 may need to return SL PRS measurement results to a large number of terminal devices.

而另一方面,由于UE1在通过单播方式向一个终端设备(比如UE2)发送一条信令之前,UE1需要先查找出可用的资源,且在一个时隙中仅可以发送一次控制信息,即在一个时隙中仅可以调度一次资源,继而通过该资源向一个终端设备发送该单播的消息。On the other hand, before UE1 sends a signaling to a terminal device (such as UE2) through unicast, UE1 needs to find out available resources, and can only send control information once in a time slot, that is, in A resource can only be scheduled once in a time slot, and then the unicast message is sent to a terminal device through the resource.

需要查询可用的资源信息,当确定出一个资源信息之后,使用该资源向该终端设备(比如UE2)单播一条信令。Available resource information needs to be queried, and when a resource information is determined, a signaling is unicast to the terminal device (such as UE2) using the resource.

因此,若UE1采用单播的方式向多个终端设备(比如UE2和UE3等多个终端设备)分别发送测量结果,则针对每次单播,UE1均需要查询一次可用的资源信息,在一个时隙中调度一个资源进行发送。可见,UE1通过单播方式向多个终端设备发送测量结果的整体过程耗时非常长。Therefore, if UE1 uses unicast to send measurement results to multiple terminal devices (such as multiple terminal devices such as UE2 and UE3), UE1 needs to query the available resource information once for each unicast. A resource is scheduled for transmission in the slot. It can be seen that the overall process of UE1 sending the measurement results to multiple terminal devices through unicast takes a very long time.

为了解决上述问题,本申请实施例可以提供一种定位信息传输方案,该方案中,第一终端设备可以接收来自N个终端设备的N个侧行链路定位参考信号。N为正整数。N个终端设备与N个侧行链路定位参考信号一一对应。第一终端设备对接收到的N个侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,得到N个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。第一终端设备广播或组播发送第一消息。In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present application may provide a positioning information transmission solution, in which the first terminal device may receive N sidelink positioning reference signals from N terminal devices.

Each of the N information blocks includes one or more measurement results of a sidelink positioning reference signal sent from a terminal device. Each of the N information blocks further includes indication information for indicating the terminal device corresponding to the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal included in the information block.

This terminal device can be called a sidelink positioning reference signal. The terminal device corresponding to the measurement result of the signal.

值得说明的是,本申请实施例中第一消息是通过广播或组播方式发送的。第一消息通过组播方式发送时,第一消息中的目的地址为组播地址。但是第一消息中包括的信息块的数量可能为一个(比如N个信息块为第一信息),第一消息中包括的信息块的数量也可能为多个(N个信息块包括第一信息和第二信息),本申请实施例不做限定。It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first message is sent by broadcast or multicast. When the first message is sent in a multicast manner, the destination address in the first message is a multicast address. However, the number of information blocks included in the first message may be one (for example, N information blocks are the first information), and the number of information blocks included in the first message may also be multiple (N information blocks include the first information and second information), which are not limited in this embodiment of the application.

相对应的,N个终端设备中的终端设备接收到第一消息,N个终端设备中的终端设备可以从第一消息中获取到该终端设备对应的信息块,继而从该信息块中获取到该终端设备发送的侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,继而基于该侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果对该终端设备进行定位。Correspondingly, when a terminal device among the N terminal devices receives the first message, the terminal device among the N terminal devices can obtain the information block corresponding to the terminal device from the first message, and then obtain the information block from the information block. Based on the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the terminal device, the terminal device is positioned based on the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal.

可以看出,本申请实施例中,第一终端设备可以将多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果放在一个信息中,在一个时隙中通过一次控制信息调度一个资源进行发送。也就是说,本申请中第一终端设备在一个时隙调度一次资源可以发送该多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,从而可以减少时延,提高侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果的传输效率。It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, the first terminal device may put the measurement results of multiple sidelink positioning reference signals into one message, and schedule one resource for transmission in one time slot through one control message. That is to say, in this application, the first terminal device can send the measurement results of the multiple sidelink positioning reference signals by scheduling a resource in one time slot, thereby reducing the delay and improving the measurement of the sidelink positioning reference signals The transfer efficiency of the results.

The indication information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal may include an index value corresponding to the first sidelink positioning reference signal. For example, the third message may include sidelink control information (sidelink control information, SCI), where the SCI includes a trigger status field, where the value carried in the trigger status field may include, for example, an index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal The first sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the second terminal device is the sidelink positioning reference signal corresponding to the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal. The first terminal device receives the third message, and determines the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal from the trigger state field in the third message. In the embodiment of the present application, the first terminal device and the second terminal device may respectively preconfigure the association relationship between the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal and the resource information of the sidelink positioning reference signal.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第三消息可以包括SCI和侧行共享信道(sidelinkshared channel,SL-SCH)(侧行共享信道)消息。其中SCI提供了SL-SCH的调度信息。SL-SCH中可以包括第一侧行链路定位参考信号的资源信息(为第一侧行链路定位参考信号分配的时域资源信息和/或频域资源信息等),和/或所述第一侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值等。In yet another possible implementation manner, the third message may include an SCI and a sidelink shared channel (sidelink shared channel, SL-SCH) (sidelink shared channel) message.

一种可能的实施方式中,步骤400中的第三消息可以通过单播的方式发送,第三消息的目的地址为单播地址(在该示例中,第三消息的目的地址为第一终端设备的地址)。第三消息的预期接收方仅为第一终端设备,这种情况下,其他终端设备(除第一终端设备之外的其他终端设备)即使获取到第一侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息,也不需要对该调度信息调度的第一侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,该其他终端设备还可以确定出第一侧行链路定位参考信号所占用的时频资源,继而在需要使用时频资源进行侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时避开该第一侧行链路定位参考信号所占用的时频资源。In a possible implementation manner, the third message in step 400 may be sent by unicast, and the destination address of the third message is a unicast address (in this example, the destination address of the third message is the first terminal device the address of). The intended recipient of the third message is only the first terminal device. In this case, even if other terminal devices (other terminal devices except the first terminal device) obtain the scheduling information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal , and there is no need to measure the first sidelink positioning reference signal scheduled by the scheduling information, the other terminal equipment can also determine the time-frequency resource occupied by the first sidelink positioning reference signal, and then use the When sending the sidelink positioning reference signal, the time-frequency resource avoids the time-frequency resource occupied by the first sidelink positioning reference signal.

In this case, one or more terminal devices can obtain the scheduling information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, and one or more terminal devices can receive the first sidelink positioning reference signal according to the scheduling information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal Sidelink positioning reference signal.

步骤402,第一终端设备通过广播或组播方式发送第一消息。Step 402, the first terminal device sends the first message by broadcast or multicast.

相对应的,第二终端设备接收第一消息。Correspondingly, the second terminal device receives the first message.

第一消息通过广播或组播方式发送。第一消息包括第一信息,第一信息包括第一指示信息和第二指示信息。The first message is sent by broadcast or multicast. The first message includes first information, and the first information includes first indication information and second indication information.

第二指示信息可以用于指示侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,第一指示信息可以用于指示第一信息中的该侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果为哪个终端设备发送的侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。比如,第一指示信息用于指示第一信息为目标终端设备对应的信息。第二指示信息用于指示该目标终端设备发送的侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。The second indication information may be used to indicate the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal, and the first indication information may be used to indicate which terminal device sends the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal in the first information. Measurement results of downlink positioning reference signals. For example, the first indication information is used to indicate that the first information is information corresponding to the target terminal device. The second indication information is used to indicate the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the target terminal device.

一种可能的实施方式中,第二终端设备接收到第一消息后,针对第一消息中的第一信息,第二终端设备可以根据第一信息中的第一指示信息判断出第一信息是否为第二终端设备对应的信息。In a possible implementation manner, after the second terminal device receives the first message, for the first information in the first message, the second terminal device can determine whether the first information is It is the information corresponding to the second terminal device.

在第二终端设备根据第一指示信息确定第一信息为第二终端设备对应的信息的情况下(或在第二终端设备确定第一指示信息指示的目标终端设备为第二终端设备的情况下),第二终端设备可以确定第一信息中的第二指示信息用于指示第二终端设备发送的第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,继而第二终端设备可以根据第二指示信息获取到第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果用于确定第二终端设备的位置。When the second terminal device determines that the first information is information corresponding to the second terminal device according to the first indication information (or when the second terminal device determines that the target terminal device indicated by the first indication information is the second terminal device ), the second terminal device may determine that the second indication information in the first information is used to indicate the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the second terminal device, and then the second terminal device may, according to the second indication information A measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal is acquired. The measurement results of the first sidelink positioning reference signal are used to determine the location of the second terminal device.

再比如,在第二终端设备根据第一指示信息确定第一信息并非第二终端设备对应的信息的情况下(或在第二终端设备确定第一指示信息指示的目标终端设备并非为第二终端设备的情况下),第二终端设备可以确定第一信息中的第二指示信息指示的侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果并非第二终端设备发送的第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,继而第二终端设备可以丢弃第一信息。For another example, when the second terminal device determines according to the first indication information that the first information is not the information corresponding to the second terminal device (or when the second terminal device determines that the target terminal device indicated by the first indication information is not the second terminal device), the second terminal device may determine that the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal indicated by the second indication information in the first information is not the result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the second terminal device As a result of the measurement, the second terminal device can then discard the first information.

本申请实施例以第一信息为第二终端设备对应的信息为例进行展示,这种情况下,也可以描述为:第一指示信息用于指示第一信息为第二终端设备对应的信息。第二指示信息指示第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。This embodiment of the present application is shown by taking the first information as information corresponding to the second terminal device as an example. In this case, it may also be described as: the first indication information is used to indicate that the first information is information corresponding to the second terminal device. The second indication information indicates the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal.

本申请实施例中第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果可以根据定位技术进行灵活的选择,比如第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果可以包括以下内容中的一项或多项:第一侧行链路定位参考信号的信号与干扰噪声比(signal to interference plusnoise ratio,SINR)、RSRP、参考信号接收质量(reference signal receiving quality,RSRQ)、相对到达时间(relative time of arrival,RTOA)、到达角(angle of arrival,AOA),或信号传输时间差(比如TDOA或RTT技术对应的信号传输时间差)。可选的,测量结果也可以是上述多个测量结果的量化结果。In the embodiment of the present application, the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal can be flexibly selected according to the positioning technology. For example, the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal can include one or more of the following contents : Signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), RSRP, reference signal receiving quality (reference signal receiving quality, RSRQ) of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, relative time of arrival (relative time of arrival, RTOA), angle of arrival (angle of arrival, AOA), or signal transmission time difference (such as the signal transmission time difference corresponding to TDOA or RTT technology). Optionally, the measurement result may also be a quantitative result of the foregoing multiple measurement results.

通过上述内容可以看出,本申请实施例提供的方案较为灵活,一方面,第二终端设备可以通过单播、组播或多播的方式发送第三消息。在第二终端设备通过组播或多播的方式发送第三消息的情况下,多个终端设备可以根据接收到的第三消息中的第一侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息接收第一侧行链路定位参考信号,继而多个终端设备可以对第二终端设备发出的一个第一侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,继而多个终端设备可以将各自得到的第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果返回至第二终端设备。第二终端设备根据多个终端设备测量的第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果确定第二终端设备的位置信息,从而可以进一步提高第二终端设备的定位精度。It can be seen from the above content that the solution provided by the embodiment of the present application is relatively flexible. On the one hand, the second terminal device may send the third message in a unicast, multicast or multicast manner. In the case where the second terminal device sends the third message through multicast or multicast, multiple terminal devices may receive the first message according to the scheduling information of the first sidelink positioning reference signal in the received third message The sidelink positioning reference signal, and then multiple terminal devices can measure a first sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the second terminal device, and then the multiple terminal devices can respectively obtain the first sidelink positioning reference signal The measurement result of the positioning reference signal is returned to the second terminal device. The second terminal device determines the location information of the second terminal device according to the measurement results of the first sidelink positioning reference signal measured by the multiple terminal devices, so that the positioning accuracy of the second terminal device can be further improved.

另一方面,由于第一终端设备可以通过广播或组播的方式反馈定位参考信号的测量结果,因此可以减少第一终端设备反馈定位参考信号的测量结果的整个过程的耗时,进而可以提高终端设备定位的速度。On the other hand, since the first terminal device can feed back the measurement result of the positioning reference signal by broadcasting or multicasting, it can reduce the time consumption of the whole process of feeding back the measurement result of the positioning reference signal by the first terminal device, thereby improving the efficiency of the terminal. The speed at which the device is positioned.

为了进一步说明本申请实施例带来的有益效果,结合图2举个例子,比如UE1需要向UE2和UE3分别反馈侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,则UE1可以基于广播或组播的方式发送一条信令。该一条信令中可以包括需向UE2反馈的侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果,以及需向UE3反馈的侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果。In order to further illustrate the beneficial effects brought by the embodiment of the present application, an example is given in conjunction with FIG. 2. For example, if UE1 needs to feed back the measurement results of the sidelink positioning reference signal to UE2 and UE3 respectively, then UE1 can broadcast or groupcast Send a message. The one piece of signaling may include the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal to be fed back to UE2 and the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal to be fed back to UE3.

可以看出,相比UE1通过单播的方式分别向UE2和UE3反馈侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果的方案,本申请实施例提供的方案中,UE1只需要查询一次可用的资源信息,进而基于该查询到的资源信息发送一次信令,即可能达到传输多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果的目的,进而可以减少UE1反馈侧行链路定位参考信号测量结果的整个过程的耗时,进而可以提高终端设备定位的速度。It can be seen that, compared with the scheme in which UE1 feeds back the measurement results of the sidelink positioning reference signal to UE2 and UE3 respectively through unicast, in the scheme provided by the embodiment of the present application, UE1 only needs to query the available resource information once, Furthermore, sending one signaling based on the queried resource information may achieve the purpose of transmitting multiple measurement results of the sidelink positioning reference signal, thereby reducing the time spent in the whole process of UE1 feeding back the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal. Time-consuming, and thus can improve the speed of terminal device positioning.

另外,值得说明的是,由于侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果占用的比特位数量较少,因此将适量的多个侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果通过一条信令发送,可以不出现一条信令的比特数量过大造成分段的问题。比如,蜂窝网络无线资源控制(radioresource control,RRC)中最大一条消息长度可以为45千字节(Kilo Byte),但是需要分5段发完。例如,当侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果为两个侧行链路定位参考信号的收发时间差,该测量结果可能占用约40比特,将适量的多个测量结果放入一条信令,控制该信令不超过9千字节(Kilo Byte),则该信令可以不会被分段。In addition, it is worth noting that since the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal occupies a relatively small number of bits, it is not necessary to send an appropriate amount of multiple measurement results of the sidelink positioning reference signal through one signaling. There is a problem of fragmentation caused by an excessive number of bits in one signaling. For example, the maximum length of a message in radio resource control (RRC) of a cellular network may be 45 kilobytes (Kilo Byte), but it needs to be sent in five segments. For example, when the measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal is the time difference between sending and receiving of two sidelink positioning reference signals, the measurement result may occupy about 40 bits, and an appropriate amount of multiple measurement results are put into one signaling to control If the signaling does not exceed 9 kilobytes (Kilo Byte), the signaling may not be segmented.

In this way, the first terminal device may use the identification information of the second terminal device carried in the third message as the first indication information in the first information. Then, after the second terminal device receives the first message, if it is determined that the identification information of the terminal device indicated by the first indication information is the identification information of the second terminal device, the second terminal device may determine the The measurement result of the sidelink positioning reference signal is the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the second terminal device.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第二终端设备还可以通过其他信令将第二终端设备的标识信息发送至第一终端设备,比如第一终端设备和第二终端设备在步骤400之前通过信令建立连接,在建立连接的过程中第二终端设备可以通过交互的信令将第二终端设备的标识信息发送至第一终端设备。In yet another possible implementation manner, the second terminal device may also send the identification information of the second terminal device to the first terminal device through other signaling, for example, the first terminal device and the second terminal device pass a signal before step 400 During the process of establishing the connection, the second terminal device may send the identification information of the second terminal device to the first terminal device through interactive signaling.

The identification information of the second terminal device carried in the first measurement request message may be the same as or different from the identification information of the second terminal device carried in the third message.

The recipient of the first measurement request message is only the first terminal device. In this case, only the first terminal device can obtain the first measurement request message, and then only the first terminal device can obtain the first measurement request message according to the first measurement request message. Measurements are requested on the first sidelink positioning reference signal.

又一种可能的实施方式中,步骤601中的第一测量请求消息可以通过组播的方式发送,即第一测量请求消息的目的地址为组播地址。第一测量请求消息的接收方可以为一组终端设备。该组终端设备可以包括一个或多个终端设备。该组终端设备包括第一终端设备,还可以包括有其他终端设备。这种情况下,该组终端设备中的一个或多个终端设备能够获取到第一测量请求消息,该组终端设备中的一个或多个终端设备可以根据第一测量请求消息的请求对第一侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量。In yet another possible implementation manner, the first measurement request message in step 601 may be sent in a multicast manner, that is, the destination address of the first measurement request message is a multicast address.

Alternatively, step 601 is performed before step 401 . In Figure 6, step 601 is used as an example before step 500 and after step 400. In practical applications, step 601 has no absolute sequence relationship with any of step 400, step 500, step 602, and step 501, such as step 601. It can be performed after step 500 or before step 400 .

图6中,在步骤402之前,还可以包括步骤602:In FIG. 6, before step 402, step 602 may also be included:

步骤602:第三终端设备通过单播、组播或广播方式发送第二测量请求消息。第二测量请求消息请求对第二侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量。Step 602: The third terminal device sends the second measurement request message through unicast, multicast or broadcast. The second measurement request message requests measurement of the second sidelink positioning reference signal.

After receiving the second measurement request message, the first terminal device may measure the second sidelink positioning reference signal according to the second measurement request message.

第三终端设备发送第二测量请求消息的有关内容与第二终端设备发送第一测量请求消息的相关内容类似,可以互相参考,不再赘述。值得说明的是,图6是在图5的基础上提供的又一种定位信息传输方法的流程示意图,图6所提供的方案也可以与前述图4结合,这种情况下,图6中的步骤500、步骤602和步骤501从图6中去除即可。The relevant content of the second measurement request message sent by the third terminal device is similar to the relevant content of the first measurement request message sent by the second terminal device, which can be referred to each other and will not be described again. It is worth noting that Fig. 6 is a schematic flowchart of another location information transmission method provided on the basis of Fig. 5, and the solution provided in Fig. 6 can also be combined with the aforementioned Fig. 4. In this case, the Step 500, step 602 and step 501 can be removed from FIG. 6 .

通过图6所示的方案可以看出,第二终端设备还可以通过发送第一测量请求消息请求第一终端设备对第一侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,进一步还可以通过第一测量请求消息携带第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果的类型等信息,如此,第二终端设备可以更加灵活的选择第一侧行链路定位参考信号的测量结果的类型,从而可以提高方案的灵活性。It can be seen from the scheme shown in FIG. 6 that the second terminal device can also request the first terminal device to measure the first sidelink positioning reference signal by sending the first measurement request message, and further can also pass the first measurement request message The message carries information such as the type of the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, so that the second terminal device can more flexibly select the type of the measurement result of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, thereby improving the solution. flexibility.

结合上述具体实施例图4、图5和图6中任一项,图7示例性示出本申请实施例提供的又一种可能的定位信息传输方法的流程示意图。With reference to any one of FIG. 4 , FIG. 5 , and FIG. 6 in the above specific embodiments, FIG. 7 exemplarily shows a schematic flowchart of another possible positioning information transmission method provided by the embodiment of the present application.

请参阅图7,在步骤401之前,还可以包括步骤701:Referring to FIG. 7, before step 401, step 701 may also be included:

步骤701:第一终端设备发送第二消息。Step 701: the first terminal device sends a second message.

相对应的,第二终端设备接收来自第一终端设备的第二消息。Correspondingly, the second terminal device receives the second message from the first terminal device.

第一终端设备可以通过单播、组播或广播的方式发送第二消息,图7中以第一终端设备通过组播或广播方式发送第二消息为例进行展示。相比第一终端设备通过单播发送第二消息的方式,第一终端设备通过组播或广播的方式发送第二消息,可以减少信令数量,节省资源。The first terminal device may send the second message in a unicast, multicast or broadcast manner, and FIG. 7 shows an example in which the first terminal device sends the second message in a multicast or broadcast manner. Compared with the manner in which the first terminal device sends the second message through unicast, the first terminal device sends the second message through multicast or broadcast, which can reduce the amount of signaling and save resources.

第二消息可以包括信息b1:时间信息。The second message may include information b1: time information.

信息b1:时间信息。Information b1: time information.

其中,时间信息指示:第一终端设备接收侧行链路定位参考信号的时间,和/或,向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间。Wherein, the time information indicates: the time when the first terminal device receives the sidelink positioning reference signal, and/or the time when the sidelink positioning reference signal is sent to the first terminal device.

在时间信息指示:第一终端设备接收侧行链路定位参考信号的时间的情况下,第一侧行链路定位参考信号到达第一终端设备的时间可以位于时间信息指示的时间内。In the case where the time information indicates: the time when the first terminal device receives the sidelink positioning reference signal, the time when the first sidelink positioning reference signal arrives at the first terminal device may be within the time indicated by the time information.

在时间信息指示:向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间的情况下,第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间可以位于时间信息指示的时间内。In the case where the time information indicates: the time for sending the sidelink positioning reference signal to the first terminal device, the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal may be within the time indicated by the time information.

本申请实施例中,第一终端设备可以通过广播或组播的方式发送时间信息,继而可以通知一个或多个其他的终端设备可以在哪个时间段内向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号。也就是说,第一终端设备可以在设定的一段或多段时间段内接收来自其他终端设备的侧行链路定位参考信号。如此,第一终端设备可以不必一直处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”,而是可以灵活的选择一段或多段时间段处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”。第一终端设备处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”,则第一终端设备需要持续监听来自其他终端设备的侧行链路定位参考信号。而当第一终端设备不处于“可接收侧行链路定位参考信号状态”,则第一终端设备可以不必再监听来自其他终端设备的侧行链路定位参考信号,继而可以执行其他任务。可以看出,第一终端设备通过设置可以接收侧行链路定位参考信号的时间的方式,可以使自身的工作模式更加灵活,降低第一终端设备检测侧行链路定位参考信号的复杂度,而且也可以为第一终端设备执行其他任务提供更多的时间。In this embodiment of the present application, the first terminal device may send time information by broadcast or multicast, and then notify one or more other terminal devices within which time period the sidelink positioning reference can be sent to the first terminal device. Signal. That is to say, the first terminal device may receive sidelink positioning reference signals from other terminal devices within one or more set time periods. In this way, the first terminal device does not have to be in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state" all the time, but can flexibly select one or more time periods to be in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state". If the first terminal device is in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state", the first terminal device needs to continuously monitor sidelink positioning reference signals from other terminal devices. However, when the first terminal device is not in the "receivable sidelink positioning reference signal state", the first terminal device does not need to monitor sidelink positioning reference signals from other terminal devices, and then can perform other tasks. It can be seen that the first terminal device can make its own working mode more flexible and reduce the complexity of detecting the sidelink positioning reference signal by the first terminal device by setting the time when the sidelink positioning reference signal can be received. Moreover, more time can also be provided for the first terminal device to perform other tasks.

又一种可能的实施方式中,由于第二终端设备可以通过组播或广播方式发送第三消息,当第二终端设备需要多个其他终端设备对第一侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量时,第二终端设备发送第一侧行链路定位参考信号的时间需要与该多个其他终端设备允许发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间匹配。In yet another possible implementation manner, since the second terminal device may send the third message in a multicast or broadcast manner, when the second terminal device needs multiple other terminal devices to measure the first sidelink positioning reference signal , the time at which the second terminal device sends the first sidelink positioning reference signal needs to match the time at which the multiple other terminal devices are allowed to send the sidelink positioning reference signal.

举个例子,第一终端设备指示其他终端设备可以在8点至9点的时间段内发送侧行链路定位参考信号,第四终端设备指示其他终端设备可以在8点30分至9点30分的时间段内发送侧行链路定位参考信号。第一终端设备若需要第一终端设备和第四终端设备分别对第一侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,则第一终端设备可以在8点30分至9点的时间段内发送第一侧行链路定位参考信号。For example, the first terminal device instructs other terminal devices to send sidelink positioning reference signals during the time period from 8:00 to 9:00, and the fourth terminal device instructs other terminal devices to send sidelink positioning reference signals from 8:30 to 9:30 The sidelink positioning reference signal is sent within a divided time period. If the first terminal device needs the first terminal device and the fourth terminal device to respectively measure the first sidelink positioning reference signal, the first terminal device may send the first Sidelink positioning reference signal.

本申请实施例中提及的时隙号可以是绝对的时隙号,也可以是逻辑的时隙号。举个例子,比如用于侧行链路传输的物理时隙的绝对的时隙号分别为:1,2,6,7等。则可以对用于侧行链路传输的物理时隙重新编号,得到的编号可以称为逻辑编号,比如时隙1(绝对的时隙号为1)的逻辑时隙号为0;时隙2(绝对的时隙号为2)的逻辑时隙号为1;时隙6(绝对的时隙号为6)的逻辑时隙号为2;时隙7(绝对的时隙号为7)的逻辑时隙号为3。The time slot number mentioned in the embodiment of the present application may be an absolute time slot number or a logical time slot number. For example, the absolute time slot numbers of the physical time slots used for sidelink transmission are: 1, 2, 6, 7, etc. respectively. Then the physical time slots used for sidelink transmission can be renumbered, and the obtained numbers can be called logical numbers. For example, the logical time slot number of time slot 1 (the absolute time slot number is 1) is 0; (the absolute time slot number is 2) the logical time slot number is 1; the logical time slot number of time slot 6 (the absolute time slot number is 6) is 2; the time slot 7 (the absolute time slot number is 7) The logical slot number is 3.

第一触发状态信息(triggering state)First triggering state information (triggering state) 侧行链路定位参考信号资源(resource)Sidelink positioning reference signal resources (resource) 0000 未触发(no triggering)Not triggering (no triggering) 0101 侧行链路定位参考信号资源#0Sidelink Positioning Reference Signal Resource #0 1010 侧行链路定位参考信号资源#1Sidelink Positioning Reference Signal Resource #1 1111 侧行链路定位参考信号资源#2Sidelink Positioning Reference Signal Resource #2

由表1可见,在第一触发状态信息为00时,可以认为第一触发状态信息未触发任一侧行链路定位参考信号资源,或者可以认为第一触发状态信息“00”未关联任一侧行链路定位参考信号资源。在第一触发状态信息为01时,可以认为侧行链路定位参考信号资源#0被触发,或者说第一触发状态信息“01”与侧行链路定位参考信号资源#0关联。在第一触发状态信息为“01”时,第二终端设备可以选择侧行链路定位参考信号资源#0作为第一侧行链路定位参考信号的资源。It can be seen from Table 1 that when the first trigger state information is 00, it can be considered that the first trigger state information does not trigger any downlink positioning reference signal resource, or it can be considered that the first trigger state information "00" is not associated with any Sidelink positioning reference signal resources. When the first trigger state information is 01, it can be considered that the sidelink positioning reference signal resource #0 is triggered, or the first trigger state information "01" is associated with the sidelink positioning reference signal resource #0. When the first trigger state information is "01", the second terminal device may select sidelink positioning reference signal resource #0 as the resource of the first sidelink positioning reference signal.

需要说明的是,本申请实施例中第一终端设备可以通过第二消息发送第一触发状态信息,第二终端设备可以选择第一触发状态信息关联的资源传输第一侧行链路定位参考信号,也可以不选择第一触发状态信息关联的资源传输第一侧行链路定位参考信号。也就是说,第一终端设备可以通过第二消息向其他终端设备推荐侧行链路定位参考信号所使用的资源,其他终端设备可以采用第一终端设备推荐的资源传输侧行链路定位参考信号,也可以不采用第一终端设备推荐的资源传输侧行链路定位参考信号。本申请实施例不做限制。It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the first terminal device may send the first trigger state information through the second message, and the second terminal device may select the resource associated with the first trigger state information to transmit the first sidelink positioning reference signal , the resource associated with the first trigger state information may also not be selected to transmit the first sidelink positioning reference signal. That is to say, the first terminal device can recommend resources used by the sidelink positioning reference signal to other terminal devices through the second message, and other terminal devices can use the resources recommended by the first terminal device to transmit the sidelink positioning reference signal , the resource recommended by the first terminal device may also not be used to transmit the sidelink positioning reference signal. The embodiment of this application is not limited.

需要说明的是,表1并不构成对触发状态关联表的限制,表1中的第一触发状态信息以2bit为例,实际上第一触发状态信息可以通过更多的比特表示,如3bit、4bit或者5bit等。在第一触发状态信息所采用的比特数目越大时,可以指示的第一触发状态信息的数量就越多。例如,在第一触发状态信息所采用的比特数目为2时,可以指示4个第一触发状态信息,在第一触发状态信息所采用的比特数目为3时,可以指示8个第一触发状态信息。It should be noted that Table 1 does not constitute a restriction on the trigger state association table. The first trigger state information in Table 1 takes 2 bits as an example. In fact, the first trigger state information can be represented by more bits, such as 3 bits, 4bit or 5bit etc. When the number of bits used by the first trigger state information is larger, the quantity of the first trigger state information that can be indicated is larger. For example, when the number of bits used in the first trigger state information is 2, it can indicate 4 pieces of first trigger state information, and when the number of bits used in the first trigger state information is 3, it can indicate 8 first trigger states information.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第一触发状态信息还可以关联以下内容中的一项或多项:侧行链路定位参考信号所使用的频点信息、侧行链路定位参考信号对应的带宽部分(bandwidth part,BWP)信息,或第一触发状态信息关联一个或多个侧行链路定位参考信号资源对应的资源池信息。In yet another possible implementation manner, the first trigger state information may also be associated with one or more of the following: frequency point information used by the sidelink positioning reference signal, frequency point information corresponding to the sidelink positioning reference signal The bandwidth part (bandwidth part, BWP) information, or the first trigger state information is associated with resource pool information corresponding to one or more sidelink positioning reference signal resources.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第一触发状态信息可以关联上述信息b1的时间信息。这种情况下,也可以理解为:第一触发状态信息用于指示上述信息b1中的时间信息;或者也可以理解为:第一触发状态信息包括上述信息b1中的时间信息。第二终端设备根据第一触发状态信息可以确定出时间信息。In yet another possible implementation manner, the first trigger state information may be associated with the time information of the above-mentioned information b1. In this case, it can also be understood that: the first trigger state information is used to indicate the time information in the above information b1; or it can also be understood that: the first trigger state information includes the time information in the above information b1. The second terminal device can determine the time information according to the first trigger state information.

通过上述内容更可以看出,在第二消息还包括第一触发状态信息的情况下,第一终端设备可以将自己推荐的其他终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号所使用的资源等相关信息通知给其他终端设备,从而使其他终端设备可以采用第一终端设备推荐的资源发送侧行链路定位参考信号。比如第一终端设备可以推荐未被占用的或信道条件较好的侧行链路的资源,从而当其他终端设备在使用推荐的资源传输侧行链路定位参考信号时,可以降低侧行链路定位参考信号受到的干扰。From the above content, it can be seen that, in the case that the second message also includes the first trigger state information, the first terminal device can send related information such as resources used by other terminal devices recommended by itself to send sidelink positioning reference signals Notifying other terminal devices, so that other terminal devices can use the resources recommended by the first terminal device to send the sidelink positioning reference signal. For example, the first terminal device can recommend sidelink resources that are not occupied or have better channel conditions, so that when other terminal devices transmit sidelink positioning reference signals using the recommended resources, the sidelink resources can be reduced. Interference to the positioning reference signal.

值得说明的是,图7给出的实施例是结合上述图6的实施例进行展示,图7示出的实施例也可以与前述图4或图5相结合,这种情况下,可以在图4或图5所示的方案中,在步骤401或步骤501之前还包括有步骤701。It should be noted that the embodiment shown in FIG. 7 is shown in conjunction with the above-mentioned embodiment in FIG. 6 , and the embodiment shown in FIG. 7 can also be combined with the aforementioned FIG. 4 or the solution shown in FIG. 5 , step 701 is further included before step 401 or step 501 .

结合上述具体实施例图4、图5、图6和图7中任一项,图8示例性示出本申请实施例提供的又一种可能的定位信息传输方法的流程示意图。With reference to any one of the above-mentioned specific embodiments of FIG. 4 , FIG. 5 , FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 , FIG. 8 exemplarily shows a schematic flowchart of another possible positioning information transmission method provided by the embodiment of the present application.

请参阅图8,该方法还包括步骤801和步骤802:Referring to Fig. 8, the method also includes step 801 and step 802:

步骤801:第一终端设备发送第五消息。Step 801: the first terminal device sends a fifth message.

本申请实施例中第一终端设备可以通过单播、组播或广播的方式发送第五消息,图8中以第一终端设备通过组播或广播的方式发送第五消息,且第二终端设备和第三终端设备接收到第五消息为例进行展示。In the embodiment of the present application, the first terminal device can send the fifth message by unicast, multicast or broadcast. In FIG. 8, the first terminal device sends the fifth message by multicast or broadcast, and the second terminal device and the third terminal device receiving the fifth message as an example for illustration.

第五消息可以承载第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息。第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息可以包括第三侧行链路定位参考信号的资源信息,该资源信息可以包括为第三侧行链路定位参考信号分配的时域资源信息,和/或频域资源信息等。比如第五消息中可以包括用于承载第三侧行链路定位参考信号的子信道。举个例子,第五消息可以包括侧行链路控制信息(sidelink control information,SCI),其中SCI中包括为第三侧行链路定位参考信号分配的时域资源信息,和/或频域资源信息等。接收到第五消息的终端设备可以根据第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息接收第三侧行链路定位参考信号。The fifth message may carry scheduling information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. The scheduling information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal may include resource information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, and the resource information may include time domain resource information allocated for the third sidelink positioning reference signal, and /or frequency domain resource information, etc. For example, the fifth message may include a subchannel for carrying the third sidelink positioning reference signal. For example, the fifth message may include sidelink control information (sidelink control information, SCI), where the SCI includes time domain resource information allocated for the third sidelink positioning reference signal, and/or frequency domain resources information etc. The terminal device that has received the fifth message may receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal according to the scheduling information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第五消息中还可以包括所述第三侧行链路定位参考信号的指示信息。所述第三侧行链路定位参考信号的指示信息可以包括所述第三侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值。举个例子,第五消息可以包括侧行链路控制信息(sidelink controlinformation,SCI),其中SCI中包括触发状态字段,其中触发状态字段承载的值比如可以包括侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值,第一终端设备发送的第三侧行链路定位参考信号为该侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值对应的侧行链路定位参考信号。第二终端设备接收第五消息,从第五消息中的触发状态字段确定出侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值。本申请实施例中第一终端设备和第二终端设备可以分别预配置侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值和侧行链路定位参考信号的资源信息的关联关系。从而,第二终端设备从第五消息中确定出侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值之后,可以根据侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值和侧行链路定位参考信号的资源信息的关联关系,确定出该侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值对应的资源信息,进而在该资源信息对应的资源上接收第三侧行链路定位参考信号。本申请实施例中,可以在第二终端设备和第一终端设备分别预配置侧行链路定位参考信号的标识与侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值的关联关系,从而保证第二终端设备与第一终端设备根据同一个侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值确定出同一个侧行链路定位参考信号。In yet another possible implementation manner, the fifth message may further include indication information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. The indication information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal may include an index value of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. For example, the fifth message may include sidelink control information (sidelink control information, SCI), where the SCI includes a trigger status field, where the value carried in the trigger status field may include, for example, an index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal The third sidelink positioning reference signal sent by the first terminal device is the sidelink positioning reference signal corresponding to the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal. The second terminal device receives the fifth message, and determines the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal from the trigger state field in the fifth message. In the embodiment of the present application, the first terminal device and the second terminal device may respectively preconfigure the association relationship between the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal and the resource information of the sidelink positioning reference signal. Therefore, after determining the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal from the fifth message, the second terminal device may, according to the association between the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal and the resource information of the sidelink positioning reference signal relationship, determine the resource information corresponding to the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal, and then receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal on the resource corresponding to the resource information. In this embodiment of the present application, the association relationship between the identifier of the sidelink positioning reference signal and the index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal can be preconfigured on the second terminal device and the first terminal device respectively, so as to ensure that the second terminal device The same sidelink positioning reference signal as that of the first terminal device is determined according to the same index value of the sidelink positioning reference signal.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第五消息可以包括SCI和侧行共享信道(sidelinkshared channel,SL-SCH)(侧行共享信道)消息。其中SCI提供了SL-SCH的调度信息。SL-SCH中可以包括第三侧行链路定位参考信号的资源信息(为第三侧行链路定位参考信号分配的时域资源信息和/或频域资源信息等),和/或所述第三侧行链路定位参考信号的索引值等。In yet another possible implementation manner, the fifth message may include an SCI and a sidelink shared channel (sidelink shared channel, SL-SCH) (sidelink shared channel) message. The SCI provides scheduling information of the SL-SCH. The SL-SCH may include resource information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal (time domain resource information and/or frequency domain resource information allocated for the third sidelink positioning reference signal, etc.), and/or the The index value of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, etc.

步骤802:第一终端设备发送第三侧行链路定位参考信号。Step 802: The first terminal device sends a third sidelink positioning reference signal.

图8中以第二终端设备和第三终端设备接收到第三侧行链路定位参考信号为例进行展示。In FIG. 8 , it is shown by taking the second terminal device and the third terminal device receiving the third sidelink positioning reference signal as an example.

一种可能的实施方式中,第五消息可以通过单播的方式发送,第五消息的目的地址为单播地址。比如,第一终端设备可以向第二终端设备和第三终端设备发送两条单播消息,以第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的单播的消息为例进行介绍,为了区分,将第一终端设备向第二终端设备发送的单播的消息称为第五消息,该第五消息的目的地址为第二终端设备的地址。第五消息为单播消息,则第五消息的接收方仅为第二终端设备,这种情况下,其他终端设备(除第二终端设备之外的其他终端设备)即使获取到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息,也不需要对该调度信息调度的第三侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,该其他终端设备还可以确定出第三侧行链路定位参考信号所占用的时频资源,继而在需要使用时频资源进行侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时避开该第三侧行链路定位参考信号所占用的时频资源。In a possible implementation manner, the fifth message may be sent in a unicast manner, and a destination address of the fifth message is a unicast address. For example, the first terminal device may send two unicast messages to the second terminal device and the third terminal device. The unicast message sent by the first terminal device to the second terminal device is used as an example for introduction. In order to distinguish, the first terminal device A unicast message sent by a terminal device to a second terminal device is called a fifth message, and the destination address of the fifth message is the address of the second terminal device. If the fifth message is a unicast message, the recipient of the fifth message is only the second terminal device. In this case, even if other terminal devices (other terminal devices except the second terminal device) obtain the The scheduling information of the link positioning reference signal does not need to measure the third side link positioning reference signal scheduled by the scheduling information, and the other terminal device can also determine the space occupied by the third side link positioning reference signal The time-frequency resource, and then avoid the time-frequency resource occupied by the third sidelink positioning reference signal when the time-frequency resource needs to be used for sending the sidelink positioning reference signal.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第五消息可以通过组播的方式发送,即第五消息的目的地址为组播地址。第五消息的接收方可以为一组终端设备。该组终端设备可以包括一个或多个终端设备,比如该组终端设备包括第二终端设备和第三终端设备。这种情况下,该组终端设备中的一个或多个终端设备能够获取到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息,该组终端设备中的一个或多个终端设备可以根据第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息接收第三侧行链路定位参考信号。In yet another possible implementation manner, the fifth message may be sent in a multicast manner, that is, the destination address of the fifth message is a multicast address. The receiver of the fifth message may be a group of terminal devices. The group of terminal devices may include one or more terminal devices, for example, the group of terminal devices includes a second terminal device and a third terminal device. In this case, one or more terminal devices in the group of terminal devices can obtain the scheduling information of the third side link positioning reference signal, and one or more terminal devices in the group of terminal devices can obtain the scheduling information of the third side link positioning reference signal according to the third side The scheduling information of the uplink positioning reference signal receives the third side link positioning reference signal.

又一种可能的实施方式中,第五消息可以通过广播的方式发送。这种情况下,一个或多个终端设备能够获取到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息,一个或多个终端设备可以根据第三侧行链路定位参考信号的调度信息接收第三侧行链路定位参考信号。In yet another possible implementation manner, the fifth message may be sent in a broadcast manner. In this case, one or more terminal devices can obtain the scheduling information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, and one or more terminal devices can receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal according to the scheduling information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. Sidelink positioning reference signal.

请继续参与图8,本申请实施例中第一终端设备可以发送多次第三侧行链路定位参考信号,第一终端设备可以周期性发送第三侧行链路定位参考信号,也可以非周期性的发送第三侧行链路定位参考信号。Please continue to refer to Figure 8. In this embodiment of the present application, the first terminal device may send the third sidelink positioning reference signal multiple times, and the first terminal device may periodically send the third sidelink positioning reference signal, or it may not sending the third sidelink positioning reference signal periodically.

又一种可能的实施方式中,在上述信息b1中的时间信息可以包括信息b1-1、信息b1-2、信息b1-3、信息b1-4或信息b1-5中的至少一项。In yet another possible implementation manner, the time information in the foregoing information b1 may include at least one item of information b1-1, information b1-2, information b1-3, information b1-4, or information b1-5.

信息b1-5:时间间隔指示信息。Information b1-5: time interval indication information.

时间间隔指示信息可以指示第一终端设备接收侧行链路定位参考信号的时间与第二时间参考点之间的时间间隔。本申请实施例中的时间间隔可以为时隙间隔或子帧间隔。The time interval indication information may indicate the time interval between the time when the first terminal device receives the sidelink positioning reference signal and the second time reference point. The time interval in this embodiment of the present application may be a time slot interval or a subframe interval.

或者,时间间隔指示信息可以指示向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间与第二时间参考点之间的时间间隔。Alternatively, the time interval indication information may indicate the time interval between the time when the sidelink positioning reference signal is sent to the first terminal device and the second time reference point.

在第三侧行链路定位参考信号为周期性发送的情况下,第二时间参考点包括第三侧行链路定位参考信号的一个发送周期内的时间。在第三侧行链路定位参考信号为周期性发送的情况下,上述信息b1-4中的时间窗信息中时间窗的周期可以独立配置,也可以与第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期一致。In the case that the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent periodically, the second time reference point includes the time within one sending period of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. In the case that the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent periodically, the period of the time window in the time window information in the above information b1-4 can be configured independently, or can be configured with the third sidelink positioning reference signal The cycle is consistent.

在第三侧行链路定位参考信号为非周期性发送的情况下,第二时间参考点包括:第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间,或接收到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的时间。In the case that the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent aperiodically, the second time reference point includes: the transmission time of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, or when the third sidelink positioning reference signal is received signal time.

举个例子,时间间隔指示信息指示向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间与第二时间参考点之间的时间间隔为5ms。第二时间参考点包括接收到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的时间。则第二终端设备需要在接收到第三侧行链路定位参考信号的5ms内发送第一侧行链路定位参考信号。For example, the time interval indication information indicates that the time interval between the time when the sidelink positioning reference signal is sent to the first terminal device and the second time reference point is 5 ms. The second time reference point includes the time at which the third sidelink positioning reference signal was received. Then the second terminal device needs to send the first sidelink positioning reference signal within 5 ms of receiving the third sidelink positioning reference signal.

本申请实施例中的时间间隔可以为正值,也可以为负值,比如时间间隔为-5ms,则表示第二终端设备先发送第一侧行链路定位参考信号,第一终端设备后发送第三侧行链路定位参考信号。而且,第三侧行链路定位参考信号和第一侧行链路定位参考信号之间的时间间隔位于5ms以内。The time interval in this embodiment of the application can be a positive value or a negative value. For example, if the time interval is -5ms, it means that the second terminal device sends the first sidelink positioning reference signal first, and the first terminal device sends it later. A third sidelink positioning reference signal. Moreover, the time interval between the third sidelink positioning reference signal and the first sidelink positioning reference signal is within 5ms.

在图8所示的方案与图7所示的方案结合使用的情况下,前述步骤701中的第二消息还可以包括第三侧行链路定位参考信号的配置信息。在第一终端设备可以周期性发送第三侧行链路定位参考信号的情况下,第二消息可以包括第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息。如此,其他终端设备可以根据第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息周期性的接收第三侧行链路定位参考信号,而且由于第三侧行链路定位参考信号周期性发送,因此其他终端设备可以只接收一次第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息,之后依据该第三侧行链路定位参考信号的周期信息可以接收多次第三侧行链路定位参考信号,从而可以节省第一终端设备向其他终端设备通知第三侧行链路定位参考信号的配置信息的次数,节省资源。In the case where the solution shown in FIG. 8 is used in combination with the solution shown in FIG. 7 , the second message in step 701 may further include configuration information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. In a case where the first terminal device may periodically send the third sidelink positioning reference signal, the second message may include period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal. In this way, other terminal devices can periodically receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal according to the period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, and since the third sidelink positioning reference signal is sent periodically, other The terminal device may only receive the period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal once, and then receive the third sidelink positioning reference signal multiple times according to the period information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal, so that The number of times the first terminal device notifies other terminal devices of the configuration information of the third sidelink positioning reference signal is saved, and resources are saved.

其中,周期信息比如可以包括第三侧行链路的周期(第三侧行链路的一个周期为40毫秒(millisecond,ms))、时隙偏移等。时隙偏移可以是指第三侧行链路的两个周期之间的时隙间隔,比如两个周期之间可以间隔80个时隙。Wherein, the period information may include, for example, a period of the third sidelink (one period of the third sidelink is 40 milliseconds (millisecond, ms)), a time slot offset, and the like. The time slot offset may refer to the time slot interval between two periods of the third sidelink, for example, there may be 80 time slots between the two periods.

可以看出,在第一终端设备向其他终端设备(以第二终端设备为例)发送第三侧行链路的情况下,第二终端设备可以对第三侧行链路定位参考信号进行测量,比如可以应用RTT技术对第二终端设备进行定位,这种情况下,第二终端设备可以测量接收到第三侧行链路定位参考信号和发送第一侧行链路定位参考信号的时间差,第一终端设备可以测量发送点侧行链路定位参考信号和接收到第一侧行链路定位参考信号的时间差,该两个时间差可以基于RTT技术对第二终端设备进行定位。It can be seen that, when the first terminal device sends the third sidelink to other terminal devices (take the second terminal device as an example), the second terminal device can measure the third sidelink positioning reference signal , for example, RTT technology may be applied to locate the second terminal device. In this case, the second terminal device may measure the time difference between receiving the third sidelink positioning reference signal and sending the first sidelink positioning reference signal, The first terminal device may measure a time difference between the sidelink positioning reference signal at the sending point and the reception of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, and the two time differences may be used to locate the second terminal device based on the RTT technology.

另一方面,由于第一终端设备可以通过第二消息携带时间信息,进而可以指示其他终端设备(以第二终端设备为例)向第一终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号的时间,因此第一终端设备可以将第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间与第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间设置的较近一些,也可以理解为:第一终端设备可以将第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间与第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间尽量接近。由于在侧行链路中,终端设备可能处于移动状态,因此第三侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间与第一侧行链路定位参考信号的发送时间尽量接近可以尽量降低侧行链路场景中终端设备移动性的影响。On the other hand, since the first terminal device can carry time information through the second message, it can then indicate the time when other terminal devices (taking the second terminal device as an example) send the sidelink positioning reference signal to the first terminal device, so The first terminal device may set the sending time of the third sidelink positioning reference signal closer to the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal, which may also be understood as: the first terminal device may set the sending time of the third sidelink positioning reference signal The sending time of the sidelink positioning reference signal is as close as possible to the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal. Since the terminal equipment may be in a moving state in the sidelink, the sending time of the third sidelink positioning reference signal is as close as possible to the sending time of the first sidelink positioning reference signal to minimize the sidelink The impact of terminal device mobility in the scene.

值得说明的是,图8给出的实施例是结合上述图7的实施例进行展示,图8示出的实施例也可以与前述图4、图5或图6相结合,这种情况下,可以在图4、图5或图6所示的方案中,包括步骤801和步骤802。It is worth noting that the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 is shown in conjunction with the above-mentioned embodiment in FIG. 7, and the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 can also be combined with the aforementioned FIG. 4, FIG. 5 or FIG.

一种可能的实施方式中,当图8所示的方案与图7所示的方案结合时,步骤801和步骤802可以在步骤701之后执行。本申请实施例中步骤801和步骤802中的任一个步骤与步骤400、步骤601、步骤401、步骤500、步骤602、步骤501和步骤402中的任一个均无绝对的先后关系。比如,步骤802可以在步骤401之前执行,也可以在步骤401之后执行。步骤802可以在步骤501之前执行,也可以在步骤501之后执行。In a possible implementation manner, when the solution shown in FIG. 8 is combined with the solution shown in FIG. 7 , step 801 and step 802 may be performed after step 701 . Any one of steps 801 and 802 in the embodiment of the present application has no absolute sequence relationship with any of steps 400, 601, 401, 500, 602, 501 and 402. For example, step 802 may be performed before step 401, or may be performed after step 401. Step 802 may be performed before step 501, or may be performed after step 501.

结合上述具体实施例图4、图5、图6、图7和图8中任一项,图9示例性示出本申请实施例提供的又一种可能的定位信息传输方法的流程示意图。With reference to any one of the above specific embodiments of FIG. 4 , FIG. 5 , FIG. 6 , FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 , FIG. 9 exemplarily shows a schematic flowchart of another possible location information transmission method provided by the embodiment of the present application.

第一终端设备可以接收配置消息。第二终端设备也可以接收配置消息。第三终端设备也可以接收配置消息。The first terminal device can receive the configuration message. The second terminal can also receive configuration messages. The third terminal device can also receive configuration messages.

配置消息可以为无线资源控制(radio resource control,RRC)配置消息。配置消息中可以包括侧行链路定位参考信号资源的信息,一般各个终端设备根据配置消息确定发送侧行链路定位参考信号所使用的资源。The configuration message may be a radio resource control (radio resource control, RRC) configuration message. The configuration message may include sidelink positioning reference signal resource information, and generally each terminal device determines the resource used for sending the sidelink positioning reference signal according to the configuration message.

配置消息中可以包括第二触发状态信息。第二触发状态信息关联一个或多个侧行链路定位参考信号资源。第一终端设备、第二终端设备或第三终端设备发送侧行链路定位参考信号所使用的资源可以为第二触发状态关联的资源。第二触发状态信息还可以关联其他信息,具体内容可以参见第一触发状态信息的相关介绍,在此不再赘述。The configuration message may include the second trigger state information. The second trigger state information is associated with one or more sidelink positioning reference signal resources. The resource used by the first terminal device, the second terminal device or the third terminal device to send the sidelink positioning reference signal may be a resource associated with the second trigger state. The second trigger state information may also be associated with other information.
