The first to 56th subcarriers of the first OFDM symbol may be set to zero. The 184th to 240th subcarriers of the first OFDM symbol may be set to zero. The 49th to 56th subcarriers of the third OFDM symbol may be set to zero. The 184th to 192nd subcarriers of the third OFDM symbol may be set to zero. Of the first to 240th subcarriers of the second OFDM symbol, the PBCH is allocated subcarriers that are not allocated for the DMRS used for the PBCH. Of the first to 48th subcarriers of the third OFDM symbol, the PBCH is allocated subcarriers that are not allocated for the DMRS used for the PBCH. In the 193rd to 240th subcarriers of the third OFDM symbol, the PBCH is allocated to subcarriers not allocated to the DMRS for the PBCH. In the 1st to 240th subcarriers of the 4th OFDM symbol, the PBCH is allocated to subcarriers not allocated to the DMRS for the PBCH.

[0158] The antenna ports of the PSS, SSS, PBCH, and DMRS for PBCH in the SS / PBCH block may be the same.

[0159] The PBCH can be estimated from the DMRS for the PBCH. For the DM-RS for the PBCH, the channel on which a symbol for the PBCH on an antenna port is transmitted can be inferred from the channel on which another symbol for the DM-RS on the antenna port is transmitted only when the two symbols are within the SS / PBCH block transmitted in the same slot and have the same SS / PBCH block index.

[0160] DL DMRS is a general name for DMRS for PBCH, DMRS for PDSCH, and DMRS for PDCCH.

[0161] A set of antenna ports for DMRS for PDSCH (DMRS associated with PDSCH, DMRS included in PDSCH, DMRS corresponding to PDSCH) may be given based on a set of antenna ports for PDSCH. The set of antenna ports for DMRS for PDSCH may be the same as the set of antenna ports for PDSCH.

[0162] The transmission of the PDSCH and the transmission of the DMRS for the PDSCH may be indicated (or scheduled) by one DCI format. The PDSCH and the DMRS for the PDSCH may be collectively referred to as the PDSCH. Transmitting the PDSCH may be transmitting the PDSCH and the DMRS for the PDSCH.

[0163] The PDSCH can be estimated from the DMRS used for the PDSCH. For the DM-RS associated with the PDSCH, the channel on which a symbol for the PDSCH on one antenna port is transmitted can be inferred from the channel on which another symbol for the DM-RS on the antenna port is transmitted only if both symbols are within the same resources as the scheduled PDSCH, in the same time slot, and in the same PRG (Precoding Resource Group).

[0164] An antenna port for a DMRS of a PDCCH (a DMRS associated with a PDCCH, a DMRS included in a PDCCH, a DMRS corresponding to a PDCCH) may be the same as an antenna port of the PDCCH.

[0165] The PDCCH can be estimated from the DMRS used for the PDCCH. For the DM-RS associated with the PDCCH, the channel on which a symbol for the PDCCH on one antenna port is transmitted can be inferred from the channel on which another symbol for the DM-RS on the same antenna port is transmitted only if the two symbols are within resources that the UE can assume use the same precoding (i.e., within resources within a REG packet).

[0166] The BCH (Broadcast Channel), UL-SCH (Uplink SCH), and DL-SCH (Downlink SCH) are transport channels. Channels used in the MAC layer are called transport channels. The unit of a transport channel used in the MAC layer is also called a transport block (TB) or a MAC PDU (Protocol Data Unit). In the MAC layer, HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) control is performed for each transport block. A transport block is a unit of data delivered by the MAC layer to the physical layer. In the physical layer, a transport block is mapped to a codeword, and modulation processing is performed on each codeword.

[0167] Each serving cell may be provided with one UL-SCH and one DL-SCH. A BCH may be provided to the PCell. A BCH may not be provided to the PSCell or SCell.

[0168] The BCCH (Broadcast Control Channel), CCCH (Common Control Channel), and DCCH (Dedicated Control Channel) are logical channels. The BCCH is a channel used by the RRC layer to deliver MIB or system information. The CCCH can be used to transmit common RRC messages among multiple terminal devices 1. The CCCH can be used for terminal devices 1 that are not connected via RRC. The DCCH can be used to transmit at least dedicated RRC messages to terminal devices 1. The DCCH can be used for terminal devices 1 in RRC connected mode.

[0169] An RRC message includes one or more RRC parameters (information elements). For example, an RRC message may include an MIB. For example, an RRC message may include system information (SIB: System Information Block, MIB). SIB is a general name for various types of SIBs (e.g., SIB1, SIB2). For example, an RRC message may include a message corresponding to the CCCH. For example, an RRC message may include a message corresponding to the DCCH. An RRC message is a general term for both common and dedicated RRC messages.

[0170] The BCCH in a logical channel can be mapped to the BCH or DL-SCH in a transport channel. The CCCH in a logical channel can be mapped to the DL-SCH or UL-SCH in a transport channel. The DCCH in a logical channel can be mapped to the DL-SCH or UL-SCH in a transport channel.

[0171] The UL-SCH in the transport channel can be mapped to the PUSCH in the physical channel. The DL-SCH in the transport channel can be mapped to the PDSCH in the physical channel. The BCH in the transport channel can be mapped to the PBCH in the physical channel.

[0172] The higher layer parameters are parameters included in an RRC message or a MAC CE (Medium Access Control Element). The higher layer parameters are a general name for information included in MIB, system information, a message corresponding to CCCH, a message corresponding to DCCH, and MAC CE.

[0173] Cell-specific parameters are high-level parameters used to configure cell-specific parameters of the serving cell of terminal device 1. Cell-specific parameters can be parameters that terminal device 1 would typically obtain from the SS / PBCH block, MIB, or SIB when accessing the serving cell from the idle state. For example, parameters included in the MIB, SIB, or servingCellConfigCommon can be cell-specific parameters.

[0174] UE-specific parameters are high-layer parameters used to configure a serving cell for a UE. For example, parameters not included in the MIB, SIB, or servingCellConfigCommon may be UE-specific parameters. For example, parameters included in servingCellConfig may be UE-specific parameters.

[0175] The process executed by the terminal device 1 includes at least part or all of the following 5A to 5C. 5A is a cell search. 5B is a random access. 5C is data communication.

[0176] Cell search is a process used by terminal device 1 to synchronize with a cell in the time and / or frequency domain and detect a physical cell identity. Terminal device 1 can detect a physical cell ID by performing time and / or frequency domain synchronization with a cell through cell search.

[0177] The sequence of the PSS is given based on at least the physical cell ID. The sequence of the SSS is given based on at least the physical cell ID.

[0178] The SS / PBCH block candidate indicates a resource where an SS / PBCH block may be transmitted. The SS / PBCH block may be transmitted at the resource indicated as the SS / PBCH block candidate. Base station device 3 may transmit the SS / PBCH block at the SS / PBCH block candidate. Terminal device 1 may receive (detect) the SS / PBCH block at the SS / PBCH block candidate.

[0179] A set of SS / PBCH block candidates in a half radio frame is also referred to as an SS burst set. An SS burst set is also referred to as a transmission window, an SS transmission window, or a DRS transmission window (Discovery Reference Signal Transmission Window). An SS burst set is a general name that includes at least a first SS burst set and a second SS burst set.

[0180] Base station device 3 transmits one or more indexed SS / PBCH blocks at a predetermined period. Terminal device 1 can detect at least one SS / PBCH block among the one or more indexed SS / PBCH blocks and attempt to decode the PBCH included in the SS / PBCH block.

[0181] Random access is a procedure including at least part or all of Message 1, Message 2, Message 3, and Message 4.

[0182] Message 1 is a process in which terminal device 1 transmits PRACH. Terminal device 1 transmits PRACH in one PRACH opportunity selected from one or more PRACH opportunities based at least on the index of the SS / PBCH block candidate detected according to the cell search.

[0183] PRACH opportunity configuration may include PRACH configuration period (PCF) TPCF , the number of PRACH opportunities N included in the time domain of the PRACH configuration period PCF RO,t , the number of PRACH opportunities N included in the frequency domain RO,f , the number N of random access preambles allocated for each PRACH opportunity for random access RO preamble , the number of preambles N allocated for contention-based random access (CBRA) for each SS / PBCH block candidate index SSB preamble,CBRA , and the number N of PRACH opportunities allocated for contention-based random access for each SS / PBCH block candidate index SSB RO .

[0184] At least part or all of the time domain resources and frequency domain resources of the PRACH opportunity are based at least on the PRACH opportunity configuration.

[0185] An association between an index of an SS / PBCH block candidate corresponding to an SS / PBCH block detected by the terminal device 1 and a PRACH opportunity may be provided based at least on first bitmap information indicating one or more indices of SS / PBCH block candidates for transmitting an SS / PBCH block actually transmitted. The terminal device 1 may determine an association between an index of an SS / PBCH block candidate including an SS / PBCH block detected by the terminal device 1 and a PRACH opportunity. For example, the first element of the first bitmap information may correspond to an SS / PBCH block candidate having an index of 0. For example, the second element of the first bitmap information may correspond to an SS / PBCH block candidate having an index of 1. For example, the Lth element of the first bitmap information may correspond to the SS / PBCH block candidate having an index of 1. SSB -1 element may correspond to an element with index L SSB LSSB is the number of SS / PBCH block candidates included in the SS burst set.

Figure 8 In the PRACH configuration period T PCF The number of PRACH opportunities N included in the time domain of the PRACH configuration period is 40ms. PCF RO,t is 1, and the number of PRACH opportunities included in the frequency domain is N RO,f It's 2.

[0187] For example, the first bitmap information (ssb-PositionInBurst) indicating the index of the SS / PBCH block candidate for transmitting the SS / PBCH block is {1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0}. The index of the SS / PBCH block candidate for transmitting the SS / PBCH block is also referred to as the actually transmitted SS / PBCH block or the actually transmitted SS / PBCH block candidate.

Figure 9 In the PRACH association period (PRACH AP) T AP It is 120ms, including PRACH opportunities from index 0 to index 4. Figure 9 In the PRACH association pattern period (PRACHAPP) T APP is 160ms. Figure 9 In the embodiment, the PRACH association pattern period includes one PRACH association period.

The random access response grant is indicated by a MAC CE included in a PDSCH scheduled by DCI format 1_0.

[0197] The PUSCH scheduled based on the random access response grant is Message 3 PUSCH or PUSCH. Message 3 PUSCH includes a Contention Resolution Identifier (MAC CE). The Contention Resolution ID MAC CE includes a Contention Resolution ID.

Base station device 3 and terminal device 1 can transmit transmission waves in serving cell C. For example, serving cell C can be a serving cell configured in an unlicensed frequency band. Transmission waves are physical signals transmitted from base station device 3 to a medium, or from terminal device 1 to a medium.

[0226] Base station device 3 and terminal device 1 may perform a channel access procedure on carrier f of serving cell c. Base station device 3 and terminal device 1 may transmit a transmission wave on carrier f of serving cell c. Carrier f is a carrier included in serving cell c. Carrier f may be configured by a set of resource blocks given based on higher-layer parameters.

[0227] Base station apparatus 3 and terminal apparatus 1 may perform a channel access procedure on carrier f of serving cell c. Base station apparatus 3 and terminal apparatus 1 may perform transmission of a transmission wave on BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c. BWP b is a subset of resource blocks included in carrier f.

[0228] Base station device 3 and terminal device 1 may perform a channel access procedure in BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c. Base station device 3 and terminal device 1 may transmit a transmission wave in carrier f of serving cell c. Transmitting a transmission wave on carrier f of serving cell c may be transmitting a transmission wave on any set of BWPs included in carrier f of serving cell c.

[0229] The base station apparatus 3 and the terminal apparatus 1 may perform a channel access procedure in the BWP b of the carrier f of the serving cell c. The base station apparatus 3 and the terminal apparatus 1 may transmit a transmission wave in the BWP b of the carrier f of the serving cell c.

[0230] The channel access procedure may include at least one or both of a first sensing procedure and a counting procedure. The first channel access procedure may include a first measurement. The first channel access procedure may not include a counting procedure. The second channel access procedure may include at least both the first measurement and the counting procedure. The channel access procedure is a name that includes part or all of the first and second channel access procedures.

[0231] After performing the first channel access procedure, a transmission wave including at least an SS / PBCH block may be transmitted. After performing the first channel access procedure, the gNB may transmit at least part or all of the SS / PBCH block, a PDSCH including broadcast information, a PDCCH including a DCI format for scheduling the PDSCH, and a CSI-RS. After performing the second channel access procedure, a transmission wave including at least a PDSCH including information other than the broadcast information may be transmitted. The PDSCH including the broadcast information may include at least part or all of the following: a PDSCH including system information, a PDSCH including paging information, and a PDSCH used for random access (e.g., Message 2 and / or Message 4).

[0232] The transmission wave is also called DRS (Discovery Reference Signal), which includes at least part or all of the SS / PBCH block, the PDSCH including broadcast information, the PDCCH including the DCI format for scheduling the PDSCH, and the CSI-RS. The DRS can be a set of physical signals transmitted after the first channel access procedure.

[0233] If the period of the DRS is less than or equal to a predetermined length and the duty cycle of the DRS is less than or equal to a predetermined value, a transmission wave including the DRS may be transmitted after the first channel access procedure is performed. When the duration of the DRS exceeds the predetermined length, a transmission wave including the DRS may be transmitted after the second channel access procedure is performed. When the duty cycle of the DRS exceeds the predetermined value, a transmission wave including the DRS may be transmitted after the second channel access procedure is performed. For example, the predetermined length may be 1 ms. For example, the predetermined value may be 1 / 20.

[0234] Transmitting the transmission wave after performing the channel access procedure may be transmitting the transmission wave based on the channel access procedure.

[0235] The first measurement may be that the medium is detected to be idle during one or more LBT time slot durations of the postponed duration. Here, LBT (Listen Before Talk) may be a process in which whether the medium is idle or busy is given based on carrier sensing. Carrier sensing may be used to perform energy detection in the medium. For example, "busy" may be a state in which the amount of energy detected by carrier sensing is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold. "Idle" may be a state in which the amount of energy detected by carrier sensing is less than a predetermined threshold. In addition, the amount of energy detected by carrier sensing equal to a predetermined threshold may be "idle". In addition, the amount of energy detected by carrier sensing equal to a predetermined threshold may be "busy".

[0236] The LBT slot duration is a time unit for LBT. Each LBT slot duration can provide information about whether the medium is idle or busy. For example, the LBT slot duration can be 9 microseconds.

[0237] The deferral duration Td may include at least the duration Tf and one or more LBT time slot durations. f It can be 16 microseconds.

[0238] Figure 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of a counting process according to aspects of an embodiment of the present disclosure. The counting process includes at least part or all of steps A1 to A6. Step A1 includes setting the value N of the counter to N init Here, N init CW is a random (or pseudo-random) integer value selected from the range of 0 to CWp. p is the contention window size (CWS) for channel access priority p.

[0239] In step A2, it is determined whether the value of the counter N is zero. Step A2 includes the operation of completing (or terminating) the channel access process when the counter N is zero. Step A2 includes the operation of proceeding to step A3 when the counter N is not zero. Figure 12 In the example, "true" corresponds to the fact that the evaluation formula is true in the step including the operation of determining the evaluation formula. In addition, "false" corresponds to the fact that the evaluation formula is false in the step including the operation of determining the evaluation formula. In step A2, the evaluation formula corresponds to the counter N=0.

[0240] For example, step A3 may include the step of decrementing the value of the counter N. Decrementing the value of the counter N may be reducing the value of the counter N by 1. That is, decrementing the value of the counter N may be setting the value of the counter N to N-1.

[0241] For example, step A3 may include the step of decrementing the counter value N when N>0. Alternatively, step A3 may include the step of decrementing the counter value N when the base station device 3 or the terminal device 1 selects to decrement the counter N. Step A3 may also include the step of decrementing the counter value N when N>0 and the base station device 3 selects to decrement the counter N. Step A3 may also include the step of decrementing the counter value N when N>0 and the terminal device 1 selects to decrement the counter N.

[0242] For example, step A4 may include an operation of performing carrier sensing on the medium during the LBT time slot duration d, and an operation of proceeding to step A2 if the LBT time slot duration d is idle. Furthermore, step A4 may include an operation of proceeding to step A2 when it is determined through carrier sensing that the LBT time slot duration d is idle. Furthermore, step A4 may include an operation of performing carrier sensing during the LBT time slot duration d, and an operation of proceeding to step A5 when it is determined through carrier sensing that the LBT time slot duration d is busy. Furthermore, step A4 may include an operation of proceeding to step A5 when it is determined through carrier sensing that the LBT time slot duration d is busy. Here, the LBT time slot duration d may be the next LBT time slot duration of the LBT time slot duration that has been carrier sensed during the counting process. In step A4, the evaluation formula may correspond to the LBT time slot duration d being idle.

[0243] In step A5, the medium is idle until the medium is detected to be busy during a specific LBT time slot duration included in the delay time duration, or the medium is idle during all LBT time slot durations included in the delay time duration. This includes performing carrier sensing until "idle" is detected.

[0256] Figure 14 is an example of frequency domain resource allocation according to aspects of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Figure 14 , interlaces 2000 to 2004 are allocated in carrier 2020. In addition, BWP 2010 is positioned such that BWP 2010 includes RB set 2030 and RB set 2031. In addition, N set =3. RB set 2030 includesstart,u 0 to RB end,u 0 = GB start,u 0-1. In addition, RB set 2031 includes RB start,u 1 = GB end,u 0+1 starts to RB end,u 1 = GB start,u 1-1 ends of the continuous resource blocks. In addition, RB set 2032 includes RB start,u 2 = GB end,u 1+1 starts to RB end,u 2. In addition, from QB start,u 0 to GB end,u 0 can be the bandwidth corresponding to the guard band in the cell. start,u 1 to GB end,u The consecutive resource blocks ending with 1 may correspond to the bandwidth of the intra-cell guard band. In the intra-cell guard band, PUSCH may not be allocated.

[0260] In option 1a, the resource blocks allocated to PUSCH may be given based on the intersection of the set of interlaces and the initial UL BWP, regardless of the active UL BWP. For example, if at least conditions 1 and 3 are met, and if the current active UL BWP is different from the initial UL BWP, the resource blocks allocated to PUSCH may be given based on the intersection of the set of interlaces and the initial UL BWP.

[0261] In option 2a, the resource blocks allocated to PUSCH may be given based on the intersection of the set of interlaces and the active UL BWP.

[0262] In Option 3a, resource blocks allocated to the PUSCH may be determined based on the group interleaving and a predetermined group RB set. For example, the predetermined group RB set may include the RB set corresponding to the initial UL BWP.

If the index of the downlink RB set and the index of the uplink RB set are the same, the downlink RB set may correspond to the uplink RB set. If the downlink RB set includes all resource blocks used for the uplink RB set, the downlink RB set may correspond to the uplink RB set. If the uplink RB set includes all resource blocks used for the downlink RB set, the downlink RB set may correspond to the uplink RB set. If the downlink RB set includes the same set of resource blocks used for the uplink RB set, the downlink RB set may correspond to the uplink RB set. Downlink RB sets and uplink RB sets may be collectively referred to as RB sets.

[0268] In Option 3b, resource blocks for the PUSCH may be assigned based on the group interleaving and a predetermined group RB set. For example, the predetermined group RB set may include an RB set indicated by an RRC parameter. For example, the predetermined group RB set may include an RB set to which PRACH resources are allocated. For example, the predetermined group RB set may include an uplink RB set corresponding to a downlink RB set for which a DCI format or random access response grant was received. For example, the predetermined group RB set may include the RB set with the lowest index in the active ULBWP. For example, the predetermined group RB set may include the RB set with the highest index in the active ULBWP. For example, the predetermined group RB set may be determined by the RB set index in the active UL BWP.
