PHYSICAL DOWNLINK CONTROL CHANNEL TRANSMISSION METHOD AND RELATED APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18352888 titled 'PHYSICAL DOWNLINK CONTROL CHANNEL TRANSMISSION METHOD AND RELATED APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a method and apparatus for transmitting a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a wireless network.

  • The network device sends a resource configuration, indicating the time domain resource used for PDCCH sending.
  • The network device sends the PDCCH of a first terminal device on a first time domain resource, and the PDCCH of a second terminal device on a second time domain resource.
  • This allows the terminal devices to monitor the PDCCH only on a portion of the time domain resource, reducing complexity.
  • The method helps avoid an increase in complexity for terminal devices when monitoring the PDCCH.


Original Abstract Submitted

This application provides a physical downlink control channel transmission method and a related apparatus. The transmission method includes: A network device sends a resource configuration, where the resource configuration indicates a time domain resource used by the network device for PDCCH sending. The network device sends a PDCCH of a first terminal device on a first time domain resource in the time domain resource used by the network device for PDCCH sending, and sends a PDCCH of a second terminal device on a second time domain resource in the time domain resource used by the network device for PDCCH sending. In this way, a terminal device needs to monitor a PDCCH only on a portion of the time domain resource used for PDCCH sending, and an increase in complexity of PDCCH monitoring of the terminal device can also be avoided.
