Abstract

A method for processing data sending, a resource configuration method, and a related device are provided. The method for processing data sending includes: receiving a first configuration sent by a network device. The first configuration is a configuration related to transmission of a pre-configured Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) resource, and is used to configure a dedicated uplink resource of at least one cell for the terminal. The method further includes sending uplink data based on the dedicated uplink resource of the at least one cell.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A method for processing data sending, performed by a terminal, comprising:
receiving a first configuration sent by a network device, wherein the first configuration is a configuration related to transmission of a pre-configured Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) resource, and is used to configure a dedicated uplink resource of at least one cell for the terminal; and sending uplink data based on the dedicated uplink resource of the at least one cell, wherein before receiving the first configuration sent by the network device, the method further comprises: receiving second indication information sent by the network device, wherein the second indication information is used to indicate whether to allow the terminal to report assistance information, wherein the assistance information is used to determine the first configuration, wherein the second indication information comprises: a third identifier and a timer, wherein:
the terminal is allowed or not allowed to report the assistance information within a runtime of the timer, and
the third identifier is used to indicate whether to allow the terminal to report the assistance information.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first configuration comprises at least one of the following:
area information; or a configuration identifier corresponding to the area information, wherein the configuration identifier comprises at least one of the following:
a first identifier, wherein the first identifier is used to indicate a set of configurations related to transmission of a pre-configured PUSCH resource that are associated with the at least one cell; and
a second identifier, wherein the second identifier is used to indicate a part of the set of configurations related to transmission of the pre-configured PUSCH resource that are associated with the at least one cell,
or wherein the network device comprises at least one of the following: a device supporting the first configuration; a device supporting a first transmission mode: a device not supporting the first configuration; or a device not supporting the first transmission mode.

3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the area information comprises at least one of the following: a cell-related identifier; an identifier of a network node; a radio access network notification area: a tracking area; or a registration area,
wherein the cell-related identifier comprises at least one of the following: a physical cell identifier; a cell global identifier; a cell group identifier; and a cell type identifier; and wherein the identifier of a network node comprises at least one of the following: a global gNB identifier; or a gNB identifier.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein before receiving the first configuration sent by the network device, the method further comprises:
receiving first indication information sent by the network device, wherein the first indication information is used to indicate at least one of the following: whether the network device supports the first configuration; or whether the network device supports a first transmission mode.

5 . The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the assistance information comprises at least one of the following:
area information; and
a configuration identifier corresponding to the area information, wherein the configuration identifier comprises at least one of the following: a first identifier, wherein the first identifier is used to indicate a set of configurations related to transmission of a pre-configured PUSCH resource that are associated with the at least one cell; or a second identifier, wherein the second identifier is used to indicate a part of the set of configurations related to transmission of the pre-configured PUSCH resource that are associated with the at least one cell;
or wherein a condition of initiating the terminal to send the assistance information to the network device comprises at least one of the following:
the network device allows the terminal to send the assistance information;
the terminal is interested in the first configuration or is interested in the first transmission mode;
the terminal is not interested in the first configuration or is not interested in the first transmission mode;
at least one item in the first configuration does not match a service feature of the terminal;
a serving cell does not belong to an area indicated by the first configuration;
the first configuration is updated;
a size of a medium access control protocol data unit comprising uplink data is less than or equal to a second preset value, wherein the second preset value is a transmit block size defined based on a type of the terminal;
a status of the terminal is an RRC connected state; or
a status of the terminal is a non-RRC connected state.

6 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the area information comprises at least one of the following: a cell-related identifier; an identifier of a network node; a radio access network notification area; a tracking area; or a registration area,
wherein the cell-related identifier comprises at least one of the following: a physical cell identifier: a cell global identifier; a cell group identifier; and a cell type identifier; and wherein the identifier of a network node comprises at least one of the following: a global gNB identifier: or a gNB identifier.

7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein after receiving the first configuration sent by the network device, the method further comprises:
receiving a paging message sent by the network device, wherein the paging message is used to notify the terminal about an update of the first configuration; initiating a Radio Resource Control (RRC) resume procedure; and receiving the updated first configuration sent by the network device based on the RRC resume procedure.

8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein when the terminal initiates the RRC connection resume procedure, a target object in unified access control is not configured or is configured as the first preset value, wherein the target object comprises at least one of an access category or an access identity, wherein the first preset value is a first value or a second value configured in an RRC layer or an upper layer, and the second value is a new value relative to the first value.

9 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein a resume cause value of the RRC connection resume procedure comprises at least one of the following:
a third value: or a fourth value, wherein the fourth value is a new value relative to the third value, wherein the fourth value is used to indicate at least one of the following: a configuration update of the pre-configured PUSCH resource; a configuration update of a Pre-configured Uplink Resource (PUR); or a PUR configuration request.

10 . A resource configuration method, performed by a network device, comprising:
sending a first configuration, wherein the first configuration is a configuration related to transmission of a pre-configured Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) resource, and is used to configure a dedicated uplink resource of at least one cell for a terminal, wherein before sending the first configuration, the method farther comprises: sending second indication information to the terminal wherein the second indication information is used to indicate whether to allow the terminal reports assistance information, wherein the assistance information is used to determine the first configuration, wherein the second indication information comprises: a third identifier and a timer, wherein: the terminal is allowed or not allowed to report the assista
