In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the term "corresponding" may indicate that there is a direct or indirect correspondence between the two, or that there is an association between the two, or that it indicates and is indicated, configuration and is configuration etc.

In the embodiment of this application, "predefinition" can be realized by pre-saving corresponding codes, tables or other methods that can be used to indicate related information in devices (for example, including terminal devices and network devices). The implementation method is not limited. For example, pre-defined may refer to defined in the protocol.

In the embodiment of the present application, the "protocol" may refer to a standard protocol in the communication field, for example, it may include the LTE protocol, the NR protocol, and related protocols applied in future communication systems, which is not limited in the present application.

In the NR system, two random access methods can be supported: a contention-based random access method and a non-contention-based random access method. As shown in Figure 2, the four-step random access includes the following steps:

Step 1, the terminal device sends a physical random access channel (Physical Random Access Channel, PRACH) to the network device, where the PRACH includes a random access preamble (Preamble, that is, Msg 1).

Wherein, the random access preamble may also be referred to as a preamble, a random access preamble sequence, a preamble sequence, and the like.

Specifically, the terminal device may select a PRACH resource, and send the Preamble on the PRACH resource. The network device sends random access related parameters to the terminal device through the broadcast System Information Block (SIB) 1, such as Reference Signal Receiving Power (Reference Signal Receiving Power) for Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) selection, RSRP) threshold (rsrp-ThresholdSSB). Each SSB corresponds to a group of Preamble and random access opportunity (RACH Occasion, RO) resources, and the terminal device can select a Preamble for random access in a group of Preambles corresponding to the selected SSB. The network device can estimate the transmission delay between itself and the terminal device according to the Preamble and use this to calibrate the uplink timing (timing), and can generally determine the resource size required by the terminal device to transmit Msg 3 .

Step 2, the network device sends a random access response (Random Access Response, RAR, that is, Msg 2) to the terminal device. The RAR is used to inform the terminal device of the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) resources that can be used when sending the message 3 (ie Msg3), and assign a temporary Radio Network Temporary Identity (RNTI) to the terminal device ), providing timing advance command (Timing Advance Command, TAC) etc. for the terminal equipment.

Specifically, after the terminal device sends the Preamble to the network device, it can open a random access response window (ra-ResponseWindow), and in the ra-ResponseWindow, according to the Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identifier (Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identifier, RA- RNTI) detects the corresponding Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). If the terminal device detects the PDCCH scrambled by the RA-RNTI, it can obtain the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) scheduled by the PDCCH. Wherein, the PDSCH includes the RAR corresponding to the Preamble.

RA-RNTI is calculated based on the time-frequency position of the PRACH that sends the Preamble, so if multiple terminal devices send the Preamble on the same RO, the corresponding RARs are multiplexed in the same RAR Media Access Control Protocol Data Unit (Media Access Control Protocol Data Unit (MAC) Protocol Data Unit, MAC PDU). If the terminal successfully receives the PDCCH scrambled by the RA-RNTI corresponding to the RO resource that sent the Preamble, and the RAR contains a random access sequence identifier (Random Access Preamble Identifier, RAPID) carried by a MAC sub-PDU (subPDU) and the above If the index (preamble index) of the random access preamble selected in Msg 1 corresponds, the RAR is successfully received, and the terminal can decode to obtain TAC, uplink authorization resource (UL Grant) and temporary cell RNTI (Temporary Cell Radio Network Temporary Identity, TC) -RNTI), so as to transmit Msg 3.

If the RA-RNTI scrambled PDCCH corresponding to the RO resource sending the Preamble is not received during the operation of ra-ResponseWindow, or the RA-RNTI scrambled PDCCH is received, but the RAR does not contain the MAC subPDU corresponding to the Preamble index, When the above two situations occur, it is considered that RAR reception has failed.

Step 3, the terminal device sends Msg 3.

For example, the terminal device may send the Msg3 on the PUSCH resource specified in the RAR, where Msg3 includes the temporary identification information of the terminal device.

For example, for the initial access scenario, Msg 3 may include an RRC connection request message (RRC Setup Request) generated by the RRC layer. Msg 3 may carry, for example, the 5G-Serving Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity (Serving-Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity, S-TMSI) or random number of the terminal device.

For another example, for an RRC connection reestablishment scenario, Msg 3 may include an RRC connection reestablishment request message (RRC Reestabilshment Request) generated by the RRC layer. Msg 3 carries, for example, a Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI) and the like.

For another example, for the handover scenario, Msg 3 may include an RRC handover confirmation message (RRC Handover Confirm) generated by the RRC layer, which carries the C-RNTI of the terminal device. Msg 3 carries information such as a buffer status report (Buffer Status Report, BSR). For other trigger events such as the arrival of uplink/downlink data, Msg 3 may at least include the C-RNTI of the terminal device.

Step 4, the network device sends a contention resolution message (contention resolution), namely Msg 4, to the terminal device.

The network device sends Msg 4 to the terminal device, and the terminal device correctly receives Msg 4 to complete contention resolution. For example, during the RRC connection establishment process, Msg 4 may carry the RRC connection establishment message.

Since the terminal device in step 3 can carry the unique identifier of the terminal device in Msg3, the network device will carry the unique identifier of the terminal device in Msg4 in the competition resolution mechanism to designate the winning terminal device in the competition. However, other terminal devices that do not win the contention resolution will re-initiate random access.

As shown in Figure 3, two-step random access may include the following steps:

Step 1, the terminal device sends MsgA to the network, and MsgA is used to transmit Msg1+Msg3 of four-step random access;

Step 2, the network sends MsgB to the terminal device, and MsgB is used to transmit Msg2+Msg4 of four-step random access.

After sending MsgA, the terminal device opens a receiving window of MsgB, and monitors and receives MsgB in the receiving window.

In the four-step random access process, after sending the Msg1, the terminal device will monitor the PDCCH within the RAR time window to receive the corresponding RAR. Wherein, the cyclic redundancy check (Cyclical Redundancy Check, CRC) of the PDCCH is scrambled through the RA-RNTI. If no RAR reply from the network device is received within the RAR time window, it is considered that the random access process has failed. When the terminal device successfully receives a RAR, and the index (preamble index) of the random access preamble in the RAR is the same as the preamble index sent by the UE, it is considered that the RAR has been successfully received, and the UE can stop listening to the RAR at this time up.

A RAR can contain the response information of the network device to multiple terminal devices sending preamble, and the response information of the network device to each terminal device can include the RAPID used by the terminal device, resource allocation information of Msg3, TA adjustment information, TC- RNTI and other information. The terminal device needs to use RA-RNTI to determine whether the received RAR is sent to itself. Therefore, the generation method of RA-RNTI is stipulated as follows:

RA-RNTI=1+s_id+14×t_id+14×80×f_id+14×80×8×ul_carrier_id

Among them, s_id is the index of the first OFDM symbol occupied by the PRACH channel resource, 0≤s_id<14; t_id is the index of the first slot occupied by the PRACH channel resource, 0≤t_id<80; f_id is the PRACH channel resource In the frequency domain index, 0≤f_id<8; ul_carrier_id is the uplink carrier (UL carrier) where the PRACH channel resource is located, 0 means normal uplink (Normal Uplink, NUL) carrier, 1 means auxiliary uplink (Supplementary uplink, SUL) carrier.

The NR system is mainly designed to support Enhance Mobile Broadband (eMBB) services. The main technology of the NR system is to meet the needs of high speed, high spectral efficiency, and large bandwidth. In practical applications, in addition to eMBB services, there are many different types of services, such as sensor networks, video surveillance, and wearable services. These services have different requirements from eMBB services in terms of speed, bandwidth, power consumption, and cost. . The capabilities of terminal devices supporting these services are lower than those supporting eMBB services, for example, the supported bandwidth is reduced, the processing time is relaxed, the number of antennas is reduced, and the maximum modulation order is relaxed. This type of terminal may be called a Reduced Capability (Reduced Capability, RedCap) terminal. Therefore, NR systems need to be optimized for these services and the reduced capability terminals supporting these services.

RedCap terminals cannot let network devices know their own terminal types or capabilities during the initial access phase. Compared with non-RedCap terminals, RedCap terminals have reduced receiving performance on downlink channels due to the reduction in the number of receiving antennas. During the random access process, the network device sends Msg2 and Msg4 to the terminal device through the public channel. Since the type of the terminal is not known, a conservative approach is to set the transmission mode of the downlink channel on the network device according to the number of receiving antennas of the RedCap terminal. Such as scheduling resource size, modulation and coding scheme, etc., which will reduce downlink spectrum efficiency. One solution is that during the random access process, the RedCap terminal reports its own type or capability, so that the network device can adopt a corresponding downlink channel transmission mode. For example, the RedCap terminal can indicate the type or capability of the terminal through the Msg1, so that the network device can perform corresponding optimization for the RedCap terminal device when sending the Msg2. For example, Msg1 indicates the type or capability of the terminal, including distinguishing RedCap terminals from non-RedCap terminals through at least one of preamble index, initial uplink bandwidth part (Band Width Part, BWP) and PRACH resources. In general, network equipment can identify the access of RedCap terminals earlier, and can optimize the transmission of RedCap terminals earlier to improve transmission efficiency.

When the RedCap terminal and the non-RedCap terminal can use the shared RO, the time domain and the frequency domain of the PRACH resource where the two transmit the Preamble are the same. The RA-RNTI determined according to the calculation method of the above RA-RNTI is the same, therefore, even if the RedCap terminal and the non-RedCap terminal use different preambles, they cannot be distinguished. That is to say, when the network device sends RAR, for the same RA-RNTI, the PDCCH that schedules RAR transmission and the PDSCH that carries RAR may carry the response information of RedCap terminals and non-RedCap terminals at the same time. Transmission optimization based on terminal type.

In view of this, this application provides a technical solution, by designing and generating RA-RNTI according to the identification information related to the type or capability of the terminal device, it can ensure that the network device transmits responses corresponding to different types of terminals through different RA-RNTIs Information, so as to ensure that the second step in the random access process can be optimized for different types of terminals, and the downlink spectrum efficiency is improved.

In order to facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions of the present application are described in detail below through specific examples. The above related technologies can be combined arbitrarily with the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application as optional solutions, and all of them belong to the protection scope of the embodiments of the present application. The embodiment of the present application includes at least part of the following content.

Correspondingly, the terminal device receives the first information sent by the network device according to the first RNTI.

In some embodiments, the terminal device may execute S211 after sending Msg1, and the network device may execute S201 after receiving Msg1, but this embodiment of the present application does not limit the execution sequence of S201 and S211.

In some embodiments, the RAPID is an index of a random access preamble, or Preamble Index.

In some embodiments of the present application, before the network device sends the first information, the network device already knows the type or capability of the terminal device.

For example, the terminal device may indicate the type or capability of the terminal device to the network device through a first message, where the first message is the first message in a random access procedure.

As an example, the terminal device may indicate the type or capability of the terminal device by using at least one of the random access preamble, the initial uplink BWP for sending the first message, and the PRACH resource for sending the first message.

In some embodiments, the first information may be downlink information in a four-step random access process, such as Msg2, or downlink information in a two-step random access process, such as MsgB.

In some embodiments, the first information is scrambled by a first RNTI. Alternatively, the first information includes information scrambled by the first RNTI, for example, the CRC of the first information is scrambled by the first RNTI.

In some embodiments, the first RNTI is used to scramble the PDCCH carrying the RAR in the four-step random access process. For example, the first RNTI is used to scramble the CRC of the PDCCH carrying the RAR. In this case, the first RNTI may be an RA-RNTI. The first information may include a PDCCH for scheduling the RAR and/or a PDSCH for carrying the RAR.

In some embodiments, the terminal device can detect the PDCCH sent by the network device according to the RA-RNTI, and if the terminal device detects the PDCCH scrambled by the RA-RNTI, it can receive the PDSCH scheduled by the PDCCH according to the PDCCH, so as to Obtain the RAR corresponding to the Preamble included in the PDSCH.

In other embodiments, the first RNTI is used to scramble the PDCCH carrying the RAR in the two-step random access process. More specifically, the first RNTI is used to scramble the CRC of the PDCCH carrying the RAR. In this case, the first RNTI is MSGB-RNTI. The first information includes MsgB, where the MsgB includes a PDCCH for scheduling RAR and a PDSCH for carrying RAR.

In some embodiments, the RAPID of the terminal device may be configured according to the type or capability of the terminal device.

For example, the network device may configure a corresponding Preamble set according to the type or capability of the terminal device, that is, terminals of different types or capabilities may use Preambles in different Preamble sets to send the PRACH.

In some embodiments, the type of the terminal device may include two types, such as a reduced capability terminal and a non-reduced capability terminal, or may include more types, for example, a reduced capability terminal, a normal terminal and an enhanced capability terminal Etc., wherein, the capability of the enhanced capability terminal is higher than that of the normal terminal, and the capability of the normal terminal is higher than that of the reduced capability terminal, or the reduced capability terminal can also be divided into multiple types, for example, according to the receiving antenna of the terminal device The number will divide the terminal with reduced capability into multiple types, and this application does not limit the way of dividing the types of terminal equipment. In the following, two types of terminals (that is, a terminal with reduced capability and a terminal without reduced capability) are taken as examples for illustration, but the present application is not limited thereto.
