[0028] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, the embodiment described below is an example, and the embodiment to which the present invention is applied is not limited to the following embodiment.
[0029] In the operation of the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present invention, existing technologies are appropriately used. The existing technologies are, for example, existing NR, but are not limited to existing NR.
[0030] In addition, in this specification, terms used in existing NR or LTE specifications such as PUSCH, PDSCH, RRC (Radio Resource Control), MAC (Media Access Control), and DCI (Downlink Control Information) are used, but the channel names, protocol names, signal names, function names, etc. used in this specification may also be referred to by other names.
[0031] <System Structure>
[0032] Figure 1 1 is a diagram for explaining a wireless communication system in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1 , the wireless communication system in the embodiment of the present invention includes a base station 10 and a terminal 20. Figure 1 Although one base station 10 and one terminal 20 are shown, this is an example and a plurality of base stations 10 and terminals 20 may be provided.
[0033] The wireless communication system may be a wireless communication system that complies with New Radio (NR). In addition, the wireless communication system may also be a wireless communication system that complies with a method called 5G, Beyond 5G, 5G Evolution, or 6G. For example, the wireless communication system may be a wireless communication system that complies with a method called URLLC and / or IIoT.
[0034] In addition, the wireless communication system may also include a next generation radio access network (Next Generation-Radio Access Network (hereinafter, NG-RAN)). NG-RAN includes multiple NG-RAN nodes (NG-RAN Node), specifically including gNB (or ng-eNB), which is connected to a core network (5GC, not shown) that complies with 5G. In addition, NG-RAN and 5GC may also be simply expressed as "network".
[0035] The physical resources of wireless signals are defined by the time domain and the frequency domain. The time domain can also be defined by the number of OFDM symbols, and the frequency domain can also be defined by the number of subcarriers or resource blocks. In addition, the TTI (Transmission Time Interval) in the time domain can also be a time slot, and the TTI can also be a subframe.
[0036] At least one of the base station 10 and the terminal 20 may also support Massive MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) for generating a beam (BM) with higher directivity by controlling wireless signals sent from multiple antenna elements. In addition, at least one of the base station 10 and the terminal 20 may also support Carrier Aggregation (CA) for aggregating multiple component carriers (CCs). In addition, at least one of the base station 10 and the terminal 20 may also support Dual Connection (DC) for communication between the terminal 20 and each of the multiple base stations 10.
[0037] The wireless communication system may support a plurality of frequency bands. For example, the wireless communication system supports frequency range (Frequency Range (FR)) 1 and FR 2. The frequency band of each FR is as follows, for example.
[0038] FR1: 410MHz~7.125GHz
[0039] FR2: 24.25 GHz to 52.6 GHz
[0040] In FR1, a sub-carrier spacing (SCS) of 15kHz, 30kHz or 60kHz may be used, and a bandwidth (BW) of 5MHz to 100MHz may be used. FR2 is, for example, a higher frequency than FR1. In FR2, a SCS of 60kHz or 120kHz may be used, and a bandwidth (BW) of 50MHz to 400MHz may be used. In addition, a 240kHz SCS may also be included in FR2.
[0041] The wireless communication system in this embodiment may also support a frequency band higher than the frequency band of FR2. For example, the wireless communication system in this embodiment may support a frequency band exceeding 52.6 GHz and up to 114.25 GHz. Such a high frequency band may also be referred to as "FR2x".
[0042] In addition, Cyclic Prefix-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (CP-OFDM) / Discrete Fourier Transform-Spread-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM) with a sub-carrier spacing (SCS) larger than the above example can also be applied. In addition, DFT-S-OFDM can be applied to both the uplink and the downlink, or to either one.
[0043] In a wireless communication system, a time division duplex (TDD) time slot configuration pattern can be set. For example, in the time slot configuration pattern, a time slot for transmitting a DL signal, a time slot for transmitting a UL signal, a time slot in which a DL signal, a UL signal, and a guard symbol are mixed, and a pattern for flexibly changing the order of two or more time slots in the time slot of a transmitted signal can be specified.
[0044] In addition, in a wireless communication system, a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) can be used to perform channel estimation of PUSCH (or PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel)) in each time slot, and DMRS respectively assigned to multiple time slots can be used to perform channel estimation of PUSCH (or PUCCH). Such channel estimation may also be referred to as joint channel estimation. Alternatively, it may be called by other names such as cross-slot channel estimation. In this case, the terminal 20 can send the DMRS assigned to each of the multiple time slots in multiple time slots so that the base station 10 can perform joint channel estimation using DMRS.
[0045] Furthermore, in the wireless communication system, an enhanced function may be added to the feedback function from the terminal 20 to the base station 10. For example, an enhanced function of the terminal feedback for HARQ-ACK (Hybrid automatic repeat request Acknowledgement) may be added.
[0046] The base station 10 is a communication device that provides one or more cells and performs wireless communication with the terminal 20. The base station 10 may also be referred to as an NG-RAN node, ng-eNB, eNodeB (eNB), or gNodeB (gNB). In addition, the base station 10 may also be understood as a device included in the network to which the terminal 20 is connected.
[0047] The base station 10 can perform carrier aggregation for aggregating a plurality of cells (a plurality of CCs (component carriers)) to communicate with the terminal 20. In carrier aggregation, one primary cell (PCell, Primary Cell) and one or more secondary cells (SCell, Secondary Cell) are used.
[0048] The base station 10 sends a synchronization signal and system information to the terminal 20. The synchronization signal is, for example, NR-PSS and NR-SSS. In addition, the synchronization signal may also be SSB. The system information is sent, for example, via NR-PBCH or PDSCH, and is also called broadcast information. Figure 1 As shown, the base station 10 sends a control signal or data to the terminal 20 via DL, and receives a control signal or data from the terminal 20 via UL. In addition, here, the signal sent via a control channel such as PUCCH and PDCCH is called a control signal, and the signal sent via a shared channel such as PUSCH and PDSCH is called data, but this method of naming is an example.
[0049] The terminal 20 is a communication device having a wireless communication function, such as a smart phone, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a wearable terminal, or an M2M (machine-to-machine) communication module. Figure 1 As shown, the terminal 20 receives control signals or data from the base station 10 via DL and transmits control signals or data to the base station 10 via UL, thereby utilizing various communication services provided by the wireless communication system. The terminal 20 may also be referred to as a user equipment (UE).
[0050] Furthermore, the terminal 20 may notify the base station 10 of terminal capability information (UE capability) that defines information related to the capability of the terminal.
[0051] Next, the configuration of the base station 10 and the terminal 20 is described. In addition, the configuration of the base station 10 and the terminal 20 described below represents an example of functions associated with the present embodiment. The base station 10 and the terminal 20 may also have functions not shown in the figure. In addition, as long as the functions are functions for performing the operations involved in the present embodiment, the function division and / or the name of the function unit are not limited.
[0052] <Base station structure>
[0053] Figure 2 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the structure of the base station 10 involved in this embodiment. The base station 10 includes, for example, a transmitting unit 101, a receiving unit 102, and a control unit 103. The base station 10 communicates with the terminal 20 (see Figure 3 ) communication.
[0054] The transmission unit 101 transmits a DL signal to the terminal 20. For example, the transmission unit 101 transmits the DL signal under the control of the control unit 103.
[0055] The DL signal may include, for example, a downlink data signal and control information (e.g., DCI). In addition, the DL signal may include information indicating scheduling related to signal transmission by the terminal 20 (e.g., UL permission). In addition, the DL signal may also include high-level control information (e.g., control information of Radio Resource Control (RRC)). In addition, the DL signal may also include a reference signal.
[0056] The channels used in the transmission of DL signals include, for example, data channels and control channels. For example, the data channel may include PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel), and the control channel may include PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel). For example, the base station 10 uses PDCCH to send control information to the terminal 20, and uses PDSCH to send downlink data signals.
[0057] The reference signals included in the DL signal may include, for example, a demodulation reference signal (Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS)), a phase tracking reference signal (Phase Tracking Reference Signal (PTRS)), a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), a sounding reference signal (SRS), and a positioning reference signal (Positioning Reference Signal (PRS)) for position information. For example, reference signals such as DMRS and PTRS are used for demodulation of downlink data signals and are transmitted using PDSCH.
[0058] The receiving unit 102 receives the UL signal transmitted from the terminal 20. For example, the receiving unit 102 receives the UL signal under the control of the control unit 103.
[0059] The control unit 103 controls the communication operation of the base station 10 including the transmission process of the transmission unit 101 and the reception process of the reception unit 102 .
[0060] For example, the control unit 103 acquires information such as data and control information from the upper layer, and outputs it to the transmission unit 101. In addition, the control unit 103 outputs data and control information received from the reception unit 102 to the upper layer.
[0061] For example, the control unit 103 allocates resources (or channels) for transmitting and receiving DL signals and / or resources for transmitting and receiving UL signals based on signals (e.g., data and control information, etc.) received from the terminal 20 and / or data and control information acquired from a higher layer. Information related to the allocated resources may be included in the control information sent to the terminal 20.
[0062] In particular, the control unit 103 determines the transmission method of the PDSCH and / or the transmission method of the PUSCH (the reception method in the base station 10), generates information related to the determined transmission method, and transmits the information from the transmission unit 101. In addition, the control unit 103 performs transmission control and / or reception control based on the determined transmission method of the PDSCH and / or the transmission method of the PUSCH. For example, the control unit 103 may also receive feedback information (e.g., HARQ-ACK) generated based on the transmission method of the PDSCH via the reception unit 102, and perform retransmission control based on the feedback information.
[0063] <Terminal structure>
[0064] Figure 3 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the terminal 20 according to the present embodiment. The terminal 20 includes, for example, a receiving unit 201, a transmitting unit 202, and a control unit 203. The terminal 20 communicates with the base station 10, for example, wirelessly.
[0065] The receiving unit 201 receives a DL signal transmitted from the base station 10. For example, the receiving unit 201 receives the DL signal under the control of the control unit 203.
[0066] The transmitting unit 202 transmits the UL signal to the base station 10. For example, the transmitting unit 202 transmits the UL signal under the control of the control unit 203.
[0067] The UL signal may include, for example, an uplink data signal and control information (eg, UCI). For example, it may include information related to the processing capability of the terminal 20 (eg, UE capability). In addition, the UL signal may also include a reference signal.
[0068] The channels used for transmitting UL signals include, for example, data channels and control channels. For example, the data channel includes PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), and the control channel includes PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel). For example, the terminal 20 uses PUCCH to receive control information from the base station 10, and uses PUSCH to transmit uplink data signals.
[0069] The reference signal included in the UL signal may include, for example, at least one of DMRS, PTRS, CSI-RS, SRS, and PRS. For example, reference signals such as DMRS and PTRS are used for demodulation of uplink data signals and are transmitted using an uplink channel (e.g., PUSCH).
[0070] The control unit 203 controls the communication operation of the terminal 20 including the reception process in the reception unit 201 and the transmission process in the transmission unit 202 .
[0071] For example, the control unit 203 acquires information such as data and control information from the upper layer, and outputs it to the transmission unit 202. In addition, the control unit 203 outputs data and control information received from the reception unit 201 to the upper layer, for example.
[0072] For example, the control unit 203 controls the sending of information fed back to the base station 10. The information fed back to the base station 10 may include, for example, HARQ-ACK, channel state information (CSI), and scheduling request (SR). The information fed back to the base station 10 may be included in UCI. UCI is sent in the resources of PUCCH.
[0073] In particular, the control unit 203 acquires information related to the transmission method of the PDSCH (the reception method in the terminal 20) and / or the transmission method of the PUSCH, and performs transmission control and / or reception control based on the acquired information. For example, the control unit 203 may also generate feedback information (e.g., HARQ-ACK) based on the transmission method of the PDSCH, and control the transmission of the generated feedback information via the transmission unit 202.
[0074] In addition, the channels used for sending DL signals and the channels used for sending UL signals are not limited to the above examples. For example, the channels used for sending DL signals and the channels used for sending UL signals may include RACH (Random Access Channel) and PBCH (Physical Broadcast Channel). RACH can be used, for example, to send DCI containing a Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RA-RNTI).
[0075] <CG PUSCH>
[0076] Next, the CG PUSCH is described. The CG PUSCH is a method of using the PUSCH to perform UL transmission based on a UL grant configured by a higher layer (for example, it may also be referred to as a configured grant, a configured UL grant, etc.). With respect to the CG PUSCH, UL resources have been allocated to the terminal 20, and the terminal 20 can spontaneously perform UL transmission using the configured resources, so low-latency communication can be expected.
[0077] In Release 16, two types of CG PUSCH, Type 1 and Type 2, are specified.
[0078] The activation / deactivation of Type 1CG PUSCH depends only on RRC-configuration and not on DCI. In Type 1CG PUSCH, the parameters used in uplink transmission (also referred to as CG parameters, CG structure (Configured Grant Configuration) information, etc.) are set to the terminal 20 using only high-layer signaling. Specifically, the parameters of Type 1CG PUSCH are provided by "ConfiguredGrantConfig", "pusch-Config" and "rrc-ConfiguredUplinkGrant". That is, the base station 10 uses "ConfiguredGrantConfig", "pusch-Config" and "rrc-ConfiguredUplinkGrant" to indicate the parameters of uplink transmission to the terminal 20. The terminal 20 stores the received parameters as a configuration grant.
[0079] When type 1CG PUSCH is activated, terminal 20 may also determine that one or more set permissions have been triggered (or activated), and use the set resources (also referred to as CG resources, transmission opportunities (transmission occasion), etc.) to send PUSCH without dynamic permission.
[0080] The activation / deactivation of type 2CG PUSCH depends on RRC-configuration and DCI. One DCI can only activate one CG PUSCH and can deactivate multiple CG PUSCHs. In type 2CG PUSCH, the parameters used in uplink transmission are set to the terminal 20 using high-layer signaling. In addition, part of the parameters used in uplink transmission is notified to the terminal through DCI. Specifically, the transmission parameters of type 2CG PUSCH are provided by "ConfiguredGrantConfig", "pusch-Config" and "activation DCI". That is, the base station 10 uses "ConfiguredGrantConfig", "pusch-Config" and "activation DCI" to indicate the parameters of uplink transmission to the terminal 20. The terminal 20 stores the received parameters.
[0081] The terminal 20 may also determine that one or more configuration permissions are triggered (or activated) when the type 2CG PUSCH is activated and the activation DCI is notified, and use the resources configured by the higher layer to send PUSCH without dynamic permission. The activation DCI may also be CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) scrambled by a specific identifier (e.g., CS-RNTI: Configured Scheduling RNTI). In addition, the activation DCI may also be used to control the deactivation and retransmission of the configuration permission.
[0082] In addition, the terminal 20 may also release (also referred to as release, deactivate, etc.) the resources (PUSCH) corresponding to the setting permission based on the DCI of the deactivation setting permission or the expiration of a specific timer (after a specific time). In addition, the setting of CG PUSCH is sometimes omitted and recorded as "CG configuration" below.
[0083] <SPS PDSCH>
[0084] Next, the SPS PDSCH is described. In the SPS PDSCH, periodic resources for Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) for downlink (DL) are configured by the higher layer. The activation / deactivation (release) of the transmission using the resources in the SPS PDSCH depends on the activation DCI. The activation DCI can be scrambled by CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) through a specific identifier (e.g., CS-RNTI: Configured Scheduling RNTI).
[0085] In SPS PDSCH, the parameters used in downlink transmission (which may also be referred to as SPS parameters, SPS structure (Semi-Persistent Scheduling configuration) information, etc.) are set to the terminal 20 using high-layer signaling. In addition, a part of the parameters used in downlink transmission is notified to the terminal through DCI. Specifically, the transmission parameters of SPS PDSCH are provided by "sps-Config" and "Activate DCI". That is, the base station 10 uses "sps-Config" and "Activate DCI" to indicate the parameters of downlink transmission to the terminal 20. The terminal 20 stores the received parameters. In addition, below, the setting of SPS PDSCH is sometimes omitted and recorded as "SPS setting (SPS configuration)".
[0086] <CG PUSCH parameters>
[0087] The parameters in ConfiguredGrantConfig for Type 1 and / or Type 2 CG PUSCH (hereinafter referred to as "CGC-CG parameters (group)") include, for example, the following parameters. In addition, when the CGC-CG parameters are provided by both ConfiguredGrantConfig and pusch-Config, the terminal 20 may also apply the CGC-CG parameters shown in ConfiguredGrantConfig to PUSCH transmission. In addition, when there are CGC-CG parameters not provided by ConfiguredGrantConfig, the terminal 20 may also apply the CGC-CG parameters shown in pusch-Config to PUSCH transmission.

[0151] <History of the Presentation>
[0152] In NR, as an example of scheduling different from dynamic scheduling, PUSCH (CG PUSCH) based on CG (configuration grant) in the uplink (UL) is being studied, and PDSCH (SPS PDSCH) based on SPS (Semi-Persistent Scheduling) in the downlink (DL) is being studied.
[0153] In Release 16, the configuration of CG PUSCH (Configured Grant Physical Uplink Shared Channel) and the configuration of SPS PDSCH (Semi-Persistent Scheduling Downlink Shared Channel) are specified (for example, Non-Patent Document 2).
[0154] In addition, in Release 16, it is stipulated that the parameters of the CG PUSCH and the parameters of the SPS PDSCH are determined by RRC (Radio Resource Control) configuration and activation of DCI (Downlink Control Information).
[0155] In addition, in NR, in Release 17, various technologies related to the method called Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC) and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are being studied.
[0156] In version 17, we are studying extended reality (XR), such as virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MX), and studying the scenarios, requirements, key performance indicators (KPIs), and evaluation methods of XR. As the requirements for setting goals for XR, we consider capacity, latency, mobility, and energy saving. Furthermore, the above research will continue in version 18.
[0157] As a research project related to XR, we are studying matters related to the improvement of XR-specific capacity. In this research, we are studying a mechanism to provide more efficient resource allocation and scheduling for the characteristics of XR services. Here, the so-called characteristics of XR services are periodicity, multi-stream, jitter, delay, reliability and other characteristics. For example, in this research, we expect the expansion of SPS and CG, as well as dynamic scheduling and permission expansion.
[0158] The following describes the extension of applying CBG (Code Block Group) and the extension of applying 2TB (Transport Block) as an example of the extension of SPS and CG. In addition, the so-called TB is a unit of information bit sequence, for example, it can also be a unit of information bit sequence allocated to a subframe, or at least one of the units of scheduling. When TBS (Transport Block Size) exceeds a specific threshold (for example, 6144 bits), the TB is divided into one or more segments (code blocks) and encoded in segments (code block segmentation: code block segmentation). Each code block is connected to a CW (code word). Scrambling, data modulation, etc. are performed on the codeword. In the case where a TB is composed of one or more code blocks, it is assumed that at least one of a code block, a CBG containing multiple code blocks, a TB, and multiple bundled TBs is used as a retransmission control unit. The terminal performs error detection for each retransmission control unit, generates bits indicating A / N (hereinafter also referred to as HARQ-ACK bits), and feeds back (transmits) the bits to the wireless base station.
[0159] First, the downlink transmission and uplink transmission using CBG, and the HARQ-ACK CB using CBG are described. Next, 2TB and SPS HARQ-ACK are described. In addition, in the following description, the downlink transmission and uplink transmission using CBG are respectively recorded as CBG-based PDSCH transmission (CBG based PDSCH transmission) and CBG-based PUSCH transmission (CBG based PUSCH transmission). In addition, PDSCH transmission (PDSCH transmission) is an operation on the base station side, and on the other hand, the terminal performs a PDSCH reception operation in the downlink. Therefore, PDSCH transmission (PDSCH transmission) can also be understood as PDSCH reception (PDSCH reception) in the terminal. For example, the terminal supporting CBG-based PDSCH transmission can also be understood as the terminal supporting CBG-based PDSCH reception (CBG based PDSCH reception).
[0160] (PDSCH transmission based on CBG)
[0161] CBG-based PDSCH transmission is shown in Section 5.1.7 of TS 38.214. CBG-based PDSCH transmission and feedback of HARQ-ACK for CBG-based PDSCH transmission are not supported in the following three cases: SPS PDSCH case, PDSCH scheduled by DCI 1_0 or DCI 1_2 case, and more than one PDSCH scheduled by DCI 1_1 when DCI 1_1 can schedule multiple PDSCHs.
[0162] On the other hand, CBG-based PDSCH transmission and HARQ-ACK feedback for CBG-based PDSCH transmission are supported when one PDSCH is scheduled. The so-called scheduling of one PDSCH is, for example, when DCI 1_1 can only schedule one PDSCH and the PDSCH is scheduled through DCI 1_1 when "PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission" is set in the serving cell.
[0163] (PUSCH transmission based on CBG)
[0164] CBG-based PUSCH transmission is shown in Section 6.1.5 of TS 38.214. CBG-based PUSCH transmission is not supported in the following three situations: CG PUSCH situation, PUSCH scheduled by DCI 0_0 or DCI 0_2 situation, SCS is 480kHz or 960kHz, and DCI 0_1 can schedule multiple PUSCHs, and more than one PUSCH is scheduled by DCI 0_1, and SCS is 120kHz, and DCI 0_1 schedules multiple PUSCHs, and multiple PUSCHs are scheduled by DCI 0_1.
[0165] On the other hand, CBG-based PUSCH transmission is supported in the case of scheduling a specific PUSCH and in the case of scheduling specific multiple PUSCHs. The so-called case of scheduling a specific PUSCH is, for example, a case where DCI 0_1 can only schedule one PDSCH, and a PDSCH is scheduled through DCI 0_1 when "PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission" is set in the serving cell. In addition, the so-called case of scheduling specific multiple PUSCHs is, for example, a case where the SCS is 120kHz, and although DCI 0_1 can schedule multiple PUSCHs, DCI 0_1 only schedules one PUSCH, and a PUSCH is scheduled through DCI 0_1 when "PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission" is set in the serving cell.
[0166] (CBG based HARQ-ACK CB)
[0167] The operation of determining the CBG based HARQ-ACK codebook (CB) is shown in Section 9.1.1 of TS 38.213. When the terminal is given "PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission" for the serving cell, the terminal receives the PDSCH scheduled by DCI 1_1. The received PDSCH contains one or more CBGs for the TB. In addition, the terminal is given "maxCodeBlockGroupsPerTransportBlock". "maxCodeBlockGroupsPerTransportBlock" indicates the maximum number of CBGs used to generate HARQ-ACK information bits received for the TBs in the serving cell.
[0168] (2TB(two-TB))
[0169] 2TB (two-TB) is shown in Section 5.1.3.2 of TS 38.214, etc. In Rel-15 / 16 / 17, two-codeword transmission is supported for PDSCH scheduled by DCI 1_1. On the other hand, two-codeword transmission is not supported for SPS PDSCH. In addition, two-codeword transmission is not supported for PDSCH scheduled by DCI 1_0 or DCI 1_2. In addition, two-codeword transmission for PUSCH is being studied in MIMO of Rel-18.
[0170] In the case where the high-level parameter "maxNrofCodeWordsScheduledByDCI" indicates that two codeword transmission is enabled, for the corresponding TB, if the parameter I indicating the MCS is MCS =26, indicating the parameter rv of RV id =1, one of the two TBs is disabled by DCI 1_1. When both TBs are valid, the two TBs (TB1 and TB2) are mapped to CW0 and CW1, respectively. In addition, when only one TB is valid, the valid TB is always mapped to the initial CW. That is, DCI can also dynamically disable one TB when a maximum of two codewords are sent and become valid through RRC. In addition, DCI 1_1 has fields indicating MCS, NDI, and RV for each TB.
[0171] (Type 2 SPS HARQ-ACK CB)
[0172] Assume that HARQ-ACK feedback for one or more SPS PDSCH receptions, where there is no corresponding PDCCH, is multiplexed with HARQ-ACK feedback for dynamically scheduled PDSCH and / or SPS PDSCH release. In this case, HARQ-ACK feedback for one or more SPS PDSCH receptions, where there is no corresponding PDCCH, is appended after HARQ-ACK feedback for dynamically scheduled PDSCH and / or SPS PDSCH release.
[0173] Figure 4is a diagram showing an example of a HARQ-ACK CB. Figure 4 , "HARQ-ACK for TB based DG PDSCH", "HARQ-ACK for CBG based DG PDSCH" and "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH" included in the HARQ-ACK CB are shown in sequence. In addition, Figure 4 The horizontal direction of represents the order (or configuration order) specified in the data structure of HARQ-ACK CB. Figure 4 In the example of , in HARQ-ACK CB, "HARQ-ACK for DGPDSCH based on TB" is arranged first, and then "HARQ-ACK for DG PDSCH based on CBG" is arranged. In addition, this order may not correspond to the processing order of HARQ-ACK and the sending order of HARQ-ACK.
[0174] "HARQ-ACK for TB-based DG PDSCH" corresponds to the codebook of HARQ-ACK for TB-based DG PDSCH (TB based DGPDSCH), "HARQ-ACK for CBG-based DG PDSCH" corresponds to the codebook of HARQ-ACK for CBG-based DGPDSCH (CBG based DG PDSCH), and "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH" corresponds to the codebook of HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH.
[0175] In addition, a CB that is part of the HARQ-ACK CB may also be referred to as a sub-codebook. In addition, for example, a structure that is part of the HARQ-ACK CB and that contains HARQ-ACK information may also be replaced with other expressions indicating the location where the information is stored (e.g., other expressions such as fields, segments, and slots). In addition, the structure contained in the sub-codebook may sometimes be recorded as a field below.
[0176] In addition, if Figure 4 As shown, in "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH", for each index of the SPS setting of a certain serving cell index, the HARQ-ACK information (eg, bits) is sorted in ascending order of the index of the DL time slot. Figure 4In the example, in "SPS configuration index #1" of "Cell index #1", fields such as "DL slot index #n" and "DL slot index #n+i" are arranged in sequence. In addition, "Cell index #1" is a field containing the HARQ-ACK corresponding to index #1 of the serving cell, "SPS configuration index #1" is a field containing the HARQ-ACK corresponding to index #1 of the SPS configuration, and "DL slot index #n" is a field containing the HARQ-ACK corresponding to index #n of the DL slot.
[0177] In addition, including Figure 4 In the various figures of and the following descriptions, "#X" represents an index. X can be an integer greater than 0 or an integer greater than 1. In addition, in the following descriptions, in examples where the index is not a number, the indexes of adjacent fields can be either continuous or discontinuous values. Figure 4 The number of fields in each figure is an example, and the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the number of fields included in a certain CB or subcodebook may also be one.
[0178] Next, for each serving cell index, the HARQ-ACK information is sorted in ascending order of the index set by the SPS. Figure 4 In the example, in "Cell index #1", fields such as "SPS configuration index #1", "SPS configuration index #2", etc. are arranged in sequence.
[0179] Next, the HARQ-ACK information is sorted in ascending order of the serving cell index. Figure 4 In the example of , in "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH", fields such as "Cell index #1 (Cell index #1)", "Cell index #2 (Cell index #2)" and the like are arranged in sequence.
[0180] As mentioned above, in NR, for dynamically scheduled PDSCH and PUSCH, CBG-based PDSCH transmission, CBG-based PUSCH transmission and two-codeword PDSCH are supported. As a result, in the case of dynamically scheduled PDSCH and PUSCH, it is possible to expect an improvement in communication efficiency.
[0181] In Rel-18, for XR services, considering the situation of using SPS PDSCH for TB transmission with a large packet size, it is desired to support SPS PDSCH transmission with CBG applied or CG PUSCH transmission with CBG applied, as well as SPS PDSCH transmission with two-codeword applied or CG PUSCH transmission with two-codeword applied.
[0182] In addition, below, SPS PDSCH transmission using CBG is sometimes recorded as “SPS PDSCH transmission based on CBG (CBG based SPS PDSCH transmission)”, and CG PUSCH transmission using CBG is sometimes recorded as “CG PUSCH transmission based on CBG (CBG based CG PUSCH transmission)”. Moreover, they are sometimes combined and recorded as “CG PUSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on CBG (CBG based CG PUSCH / CG PUSCH transmission)”.
[0183] In addition, SPS PDSCH transmission using dual codewords may be recorded as "two-codeword SPS PDSCH transmission (two-codeword SPS PDSCH transmission)", and CG PUSCH transmission using dual codewords may be recorded as "two-codeword CG PUSCH transmission (two-codeword CG PUSCH transmission)".
[0184] One method of the present disclosure describes a method for improving communication efficiency by applying CBG and / or 2TB in SPS and CG as an example of scheduling different from dynamic scheduling.
[0185] <Proposal 1>
[0186] In Proposal 1, a judgment criterion for the terminal 20 to set whether to apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission (CBGbased SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission) or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission (TBbased SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission).
[0187] (Select (Alt) 1)
[0188] In option 1, the terminal 20 sets whether to apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on an existing high-level parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information for enabling CBG-based transmission in DG PDSCH / DG PUSCH, for example, PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission for SPS PDSCH / PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission for CG PUSCH.
[0189] For example, when PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission is configured for the serving cell, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for all SPS settings on the serving cell, and in other cases, apply TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission (TB based SPS PDSCH transmission). Similarly, when PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission is configured for the serving cell, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for all CG settings on the serving cell, and in other cases, apply TB-based CG PUSCH transmission (TB based CG PUSCH transmission).
[0190] According to option 1, the existing RRC parameters are used to determine whether or not to apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission, thereby reducing signaling overhead.
[0191] (Select 2)
[0192] In option 2, the terminal 20 sets whether to apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on other high-level parameters (RRC parameters) in PDSCH-ServingCellConfig or PUSCH-ServingCellConfig, for example, SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission / CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission, as setting information for enabling CBG-based transmission in SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0193] For example, when SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the serving cell, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for all SPS settings on the serving cell, and apply TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission in all other cases. Similarly, when CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the serving cell, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for all CG settings on the serving cell, and apply TB-based CG PUSCH transmission in all other cases.
[0194] (Select 3)
[0195] In option 3, the terminal 20 sets which of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission and TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is applied based on separate information set for each SPS setting or CG setting, and is a high-level parameter (RRC parameter) that serves as setting information for enabling CBG-based transmission in SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH. For example, SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission / CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission.
[0196] For example, when SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the SPS setting, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and in other cases, apply TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission. Similarly, when CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the CG setting, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and in other cases, apply TB-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0197] (Select 4)
[0198] Option 4 is a combination of Option 1 and Option 2. That is, in Option 4, the terminal 20 sets which of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission and TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is applied based on an existing higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) as setting information for enabling CBG-based transmission in DG PDSCH / DGPUSCH, and other higher-layer parameters (RRC parameters) in PDSCH-ServingCellConfig or in PUSCH-ServingCellConfig as setting information for enabling DG PDSCH / DG PUSCH.
[0199] For example, when both PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission are set for the serving cell, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for all SPS settings on the serving cell, and apply TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission in all other cases. Similarly, when both PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission are set for the serving cell, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for all CG settings on the serving cell, and apply TB-based CG PUSCH transmission in all other cases.
[0200] Alternatively, when at least one of PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the serving cell, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for all SPS settings on the serving cell, and applies TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission in all other cases. Similarly, when at least one of PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the serving cell, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for all CG settings on the serving cell, and applies TB-based CG PUSCH transmission in all other cases.
[0201] (Select 5)
[0202] Option 5 is a combination of Option 1 and Option 3. That is, in Option 5, the terminal 20 sets which of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission and TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is applied based on an existing higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information for enabling CBG-based transmission in DG PDSCH / DGPUSCH, and a higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information for enabling CBG-based transmission in SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, which is separate information for each SPS setting or CG setting.
[0203] For example, it may be that when PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission is configured for terminal 20 and the RRC parameter (e.g., CbgEnable) in the SPS configuration is configured (e.g., to "valid"), CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied for the SPS configuration, and TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied in all other cases. Similarly, it may be that when PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission is configured for terminal 20 and the RRC parameter (e.g., CbgEnable) in the CG configuration is configured (e.g., to "valid"), CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied for the CG configuration, and TB-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied in all other cases.
[0204] Alternatively, when at least one of PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and the RRC parameters in the SPS setting is set, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and applies TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission in other cases. Similarly, when at least one of PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and the RRC parameters in the CG setting is set, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and applies TB-based CG PUSCH transmission in other cases.

Similarly, it may be that when the PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the terminal 20 and the CG setting is activated by DCI format 1_1 or DCI 0_1, the CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied for the CG setting, and in other cases, the TB-based CGPUSCH transmission is applied.

Similarly, it may be that when at least one of the settings of PUSCH-ServingCellConfig and activation of the CG setting based on DCI format 1_1 or DCI 0_1 is implemented, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and in other cases, applies TB-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0211] In addition, as a combination of option 3 and activating the DCI format, it may also be that when SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the SPS setting of the terminal 20 and the SPS setting is activated through DCI format 1_1 or DCI 0_1, the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied for the SPS setting, and in other cases, the TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied. Similarly, it may be that when CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the CG setting of the terminal 20 and the CG setting is activated through DCI format 1_1 or DCI 0_1, the CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied for the CG setting, and in other cases, the TB-based CGPUSCH transmission is applied.

Similarly, it may be that, when at least one of the CG setting of CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission and the activation of the CG setting based on DCI format 1_1 or DCI 0_1 is implemented, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and in other cases, applies TB-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0213] In addition, as a combination of option 4 and activating the DCI format, it may also be that when both PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission are set for the serving cell, and the SPS setting is activated through DCI format 1_1 or DCI 0_1, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and applies TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission in other cases.

[0219] For example, as a combination of option 1 and activating the DCI field in the DCI, it may also be that, when PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission is configured for terminal 20 and the SPS setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied for the SPS setting, and in other cases, TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied. Similarly, it may be that, when PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission is configured for terminal 20 and the CG setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission, CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied for the CG setting, and in other cases, TB-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied.
[0220] Alternatively, as a combination of option 1 and activation of the DCI field in the DCI, it may be that, when at least one of the PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission setting and the activation of the SPS setting based on the DCI format having the DCI field indicating the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and in other cases, applies the TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission. Similarly, it may be that, when at least one of the PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission setting and the activation of the CG setting based on the DCI format having the DCI field indicating the CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies the CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and in other cases, applies the TB-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0221] In addition, as a combination of option 2 and activating the DCI field in the DCI, it may also be that when the PDSCH-ServingCellConfig is set for the terminal 20 and the SPS setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied for the SPS setting, and in other cases, the TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied.

[0223] In addition, as a combination of option 3 and activating the DCI field in the DCI, it may also be that, when SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the SPS setting and the SPS setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and in other cases, TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied. Similarly, it may be that, when CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission is set for the CG setting and the CG setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and in other cases, TB-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied.
[0224] Alternatively, as a combination of option 3 and activation of the DCI field in the DCI, it may be that, when at least one of the SPS setting of SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission and activation of the SPS setting based on the DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and otherwise applies TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission. Similarly, it may be that, when at least one of the CG setting of CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission and activation of the CG setting based on the DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and otherwise applies TB-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0225] In addition, as a combination of selection 4 and activation of the DCI field in the DCI, it may also be that, when both PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission are set for the serving cell of the terminal 20, and the SPS setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, for the SPS setting, CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied, and in other cases, TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied. Similarly, it may be that, when both PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission are set for the serving cell of the terminal 20, and the CG setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission, for the CG setting, CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied, and in other cases, TB-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied.
[0226] Alternatively, as a combination of selection 4 and activation of the DCI field in the DCI, it may be that, when at least one of the PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission setting, the SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission setting for the serving cell, and the activation of the SPS setting based on the DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and in other cases, applies the TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission. Similarly, it may be that, when at least one of the PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission setting, the CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission setting for the serving cell, and the activation of the CG setting based on the DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies the CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and in other cases, applies the TB-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0227] In addition, as a combination of selection 5 and activation of the DCI field in the DCI, it may also be that, when both PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission are set for the SPS setting of the terminal 20, and the SPS setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied for the SPS setting, and in other cases, TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is applied. Similarly, it may be that, when both PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission and CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission are set for the CG setting of the terminal 20, and the CG setting is activated by a DCI format having a DCI field indicating CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission, CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied for the CG setting, and in other cases, TB-based CG PUSCH transmission is applied.
[0228] Alternatively, as a combination of selection 5 and activation of the DCI field in the DCI, it may be that, when at least one of the settings of PDSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission, the setting of the SPS setting by SPS-PDSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission, and the activation of the SPS setting based on the DCI format having a DCI field indicating the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS setting, and in other cases, applies the TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission. Similarly, it may be that, when at least one of the settings of PUSCH-CodeBlockGroupTransmission, the setting of the CG setting by CG-PUSCH-codeBlockGroupTransmission, and the activation of the CG setting based on the DCI format having a DCI field indicating the CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission is implemented, the terminal 20 applies the CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission for the CG setting, and in other cases, applies the TB-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0229] (About the number of CBGs for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH)
[0230] The maximum value of CBG per 1TB of SPS PDSCH or CG PUSCH can be set as follows.
[0231] (Option 1)
[0232] For the SPS / CG configuration on the serving cell, when CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is applied, the maximum value of CBG per 1TB of SPS PDSCH or CG PUSCH can be determined by parameters (e.g., N) constructed for each serving cell.
[0233] (Option 2)
[0234] For each SPS / CG setting, when CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is applied, the maximum number of CBGs per 1TB of SPS PDSCH or CG PUSCH can also be determined by the parameters set in the SPS / CG setting (for example, N_i of SPS / CG setting #i).
[0235] (Effect)
[0236] According to the above-described Proposal 1, CBG-based transmission can also be supported in the SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH as a semi-static scheduling, so the retransmission frequency can be reduced, low latency can be achieved, transmission efficiency can be improved, and reliability can be ensured. For example, when 1TB is divided into 4 code blocks for transmission, when an error occurs in only one code block, only the code block needs to be retransmitted. Therefore, compared with the case of transmitting in TB units, the amount of data to be retransmitted can be reduced.
[0237] In addition, according to Proposal 1, in SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, CBG-based transmission and TB-based transmission (TB based transmission) can be adaptively switched. For example, for SPS / CG settings for XR services, CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission can be applied, and for SPS / CG settings for URLLC services, TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission can be applied.
[0238] <Proposal 2>
[0239] In Proposal 2, the HARQ-ACK CB for the CBG based SPS PDSCH is described. Hereinafter, the HARQ-ACK bits included in the HARQ-ACK CB for the SPS PDSCH are described as "SPS HARQ-ACK bits".
[0240] In addition, TB-based SPS PDSCH (TB based SPS PDSCH) and CBG-based SPS PDSCH are sometimes collectively referred to as SPS PDSCH. In addition, TB-based DG PDSCH and CBG-based DG PDSCH are sometimes collectively referred to as DGPDSCH. In addition, TB-based SPS PDSCH and TB-based DG PDSCH are sometimes collectively referred to as TBbased PDSCH (TBbased PDSCH). CBG-based SPS PDSCH and CBG-based DG PDSCH are sometimes collectively referred to as CBG-based PDSCH (CBG based PDSCH).
[0241] Figure 5 This is a diagram showing an example of HARQ-ACK CB of Proposal 2. Figure 5 In the HARQ-ACK CB shown, "HARQ-ACK for TB-based DG PDSCH" corresponds to the subcodebook containing HARQ-ACK for TB-based DG PDSCH, and "HARQ-ACK for CBG-based DG PDSCH" corresponds to the subcodebook containing HARQ-ACK for CBG-based DG PDSCH. Figure 5 In the HARQ-ACK CB shown, "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH (including TB and CBG based SPS)" corresponds to a subcodebook including HARQ-ACK for TB-based SPS PDSCH and / or HARQ-ACK for CBG-based SPS PDSCH.
[0242] In addition, in the following description, an example is shown in which "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH (including SPS based on TB and CBG)" includes both HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH based on TB and HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH based on CBG, but "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH (including SPS based on TB and CBG)" may not include at least one of the HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH based on TB and the HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH based on CBG. In addition, hereinafter, "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH (including SPS based on TB and CBG)" may sometimes be abbreviated as "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH" or "SPS HARQ-ACK CB".
[0243] exist Figure 5 The structure of "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH" shown may adopt a structure based on one of the options shown below.
[0244] (Option 1)
[0245] In option 1, use Figure 4 The construction process of the CB of the SPS HARQ-ACK described is reused for the construction process of the CB of the HARQ-ACK for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH. Here, it may be that only the number of HARQ-ACK bits is different between the HARQ-ACK CB for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the TB-based SPS PDSCH. In other words, the number of HARQ-ACK bits is different between the HARQ-ACK CB for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the TB-based SPS PDSCH, and on the other hand, elements other than the number of HARQ-ACK bits may be common between the HARQ-ACK CB for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the TB-based SPS PDSCH. The elements other than the number of HARQ-ACK bits include, for example, decisions related to the order of HARQ-ACK information (e.g., fields) in the HARQ-ACK CB.
[0246] The order of SPS HARQ-ACK bits in the SPS HARQ-ACK CB (the order of fields) may first be based on the ascending order of the cell index of the serving cell, then, in each of the indexes of the serving cell, based on the ascending order of the index set by the SPS, and then, in each of the indexes set by the SPS, based on the ascending order of the index of the DL time slot. The order of the SPS HARQ-ACK bits (the order of fields) may also be common between the HARQ-ACK CB for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the TB-based SPS PDSCH.
[0247] (Option 2)
[0248] In Option 2, it is classified into a cell that performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission and a cell that performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission. For example, in Option 2, in the HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH, first, there is a field corresponding to the cell that performs only TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission, and then there is a field corresponding to the cell that performs only CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission. Here, for example, in the field corresponding to the cell that performs only TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission, only the HARQ-ACK bits for the TB-based SPS PDSCH received from the cell that performs only TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission may be included. In addition, in the field corresponding to the cell that performs only CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, only the HARQ-ACK bits for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH received from the cell that performs only CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission may be included, corresponding to the cell having the above situation.
[0249] In addition, the so-called cell that only performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission may also correspond to a cell that performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission but does not perform CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission. In addition, the so-called cell that only performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission may also correspond to a cell that performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission but does not perform TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission.
[0250] In addition, the cell that performs only SPS PDSCH transmission based on TB may be one or more cells. In addition, when there are multiple cells that perform only SPS PDSCH transmission based on TB, a set of multiple cells may be formed. There is no particular limitation on the order of the multiple cells that perform only SPS PDSCH transmission based on TB.
[0251] For example, regarding the order of multiple cells that perform only TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission, the order of using Figure 4 The order of the construction process of the CB of the SPS HARQ-ACK is described. For example, the order of multiple cells that perform only TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission can be first based on the order of the cell index of the serving cell, then based on the order of the index set by the SPS, and then based on the order of the index of the DL time slot. For example, the order of multiple cells that perform only TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission can be first based on the ascending order of the cell index of the serving cell, then based on the ascending order of the index set by the SPS, and then based on the ascending order of the index of the DL time slot.
[0252] Figure 6 is a diagram showing an example of HARQ-ACK CB of Option 2 of Proposal 2. In Option 2, Figure 6 As shown, in "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH", there is first a "Cell with only TB based SPS", and then there is a "Cell with only CBG based SPS". Here, the "Cell with only TB based SPS" can correspond to a field containing only HARQ-ACK for TB based SPS PDSCH, and the "Cell with only CBG based SPS" can correspond to a field containing only HARQ-ACK for CBG based SPS PDSCH.
[0253] In addition, Figure 6 In the figure, an example is shown in which the "cell having only SPS based on TB" and the "cell having only SPS based on CBG" are each one, but the "cell having only SPS based on TB" and the "cell having only SPS based on CBG" can also be more than two.
[0254] And, if Figure 6As shown, the order of the fields included in the “cells with only TB-based SPS” is first based on the order of the cell indexes of the serving cells such as “Cell index #i_1(Cell index#i_1)” and “Cell index #i_2(Cell index#i_2)”. Then, the order of the fields included in the “cell index #i_1” is based on the order of the indexes of the SPS configuration such as shown in the “SPS configuration index #j_1(SPS configuration index#j_1)” and “SPS configuration index #j_2(SPS configuration index#j_2)”. Next, the order of the cells included in the “SPS configuration index #j_1” is based on the order of the indexes of the DL slots such as shown in the “DL slot index #n_1(DL slot index#n_1)” and “DL slot index #n_2(DL slot index#n_2)”.
[0255] In addition, although Figure 6 Although omitted in the above description, the order of cells included in "cell index #i_2" may be based on the order of the indexes configured by the SPS. In addition, the order of cells included in "SPS configuration index #j_2" may be based on the order of the indexes of the DL time slots.
[0256] In addition, there may be multiple cells that only perform CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission. In addition, the cell that only performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission may be composed of a set of multiple cells. There is no special limitation on the order of cells in the case where multiple cells are included in the cell that only performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission. For example, any order of the following options 2-1 and 2-2 can be adopted.
[0257] (Option 2-1)
[0258] In option 2-1, the order of multiple fields contained in the cell that performs only SPS PDSCH transmission based on CBG reuses the existing ordering principle. The so-called existing ordering principle can be to use Figure 4 The order of the construction process of the CB of the SPSHARQ-ACK described. For example, the order of multiple fields contained in a cell that only performs SPS PDSCH transmission based on CBG can be first based on the order of the cell index of the serving cell, then, based on the order of the index set by the SPS, and then, based on the order of the index of the DL time slot. For example, the order of multiple fields contained in a cell that only performs SPS PDSCH transmission based on CBG can be first based on the ascending order of the cell index of the serving cell, then, based on the ascending order of the index set by the SPS, and then, based on the ascending order of the index of the DL time slot.
[0259] Figure 7 is a diagram showing an example of HARQ-ACK CB of Option 2-1 of Proposal 2. In Option 2-1, Figure 6 Similarly, in the “HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH”, first there is “a cell with only TB-based SPS”, and then there is “a cell with only CBG-based SPS”. Here, “a cell with only TB-based SPS” may correspond to a field including only HARQ-ACK for TB-based SPS PDSCH, and “a cell with only CBG-based SPS” may correspond to a field including only HARQ-ACK for CBG-based SPS PDSCH.
[0260] In addition, Figure 7 In the figure, an example is shown in which the "cell having only SPS based on TB" and the "cell having only SPS based on CBG" are each one, but the "cell having only SPS based on TB" and the "cell having only SPS based on CBG" can also be more than two.
[0261] And, if Figure 7 As shown, the order of the fields included in the “cell with only CBG-based SPS” is first based on the order of the cell indexes of the serving cells such as “cell index #i_1” and “cell index #i_2”. Then, the order of the fields included in the “cell index #i_1” is based on the order of the indexes of the SPS settings such as shown in “SPS setting index #j_1” and “SPS setting index #j_2”. Next, the order of the fields included in the “SPS setting index #j_1” is based on the order of the indexes of the DL slots such as shown in “DL slot index #n_1” and “DL slot index #n_2”.
[0262] In addition, Figure 7 Although omitted in the description, the order of the fields included in the "cell index #i_2" may be based on the order of the indexes set by the SPS. In addition, the order of the fields included in the "SPS setting index #j_2" may be based on the order of the indexes of the DL time slots.
[0263] (Option 2-2)
[0264] In option 2-2, the order of multiple fields included in the cell for CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission may be first based on the order of the cell index of the serving cell. And, then, the order of multiple fields included in the cell for CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is to first arrange the fields corresponding to the SPS settings for TB-based transmission, and then arrange the fields corresponding to the SPS settings for CBG-based transmission. In this case, in the field corresponding to the cell index of a certain serving cell, the fields of the SPS settings for TB-based transmission are arranged first, and then the fields of the SPS settings for CBG-based transmission are arranged.
[0265] In the index of a certain SPS setting based on the transmission of TB, the existing sorting principle can also be reused. The so-called existing sorting principle can be to use Figure 4 The order of the construction process of the CB of the SPS HARQ-ACK is described. For example, the order of the fields in the field corresponding to the index set by a certain SPS based on the transmission of the TB can be based on the order of the index set by the SPS first, and then based on the order of the index of the DL time slot. For example, the order of the fields in the field corresponding to the index set by a certain SPS based on the transmission of the TB can be based on the ascending order of the index set by the SPS first, and then based on the ascending order of the index of the DL time slot.
[0266] Figure 8 is a diagram showing an example of HARQ-ACK CB of Option 2-2 of Proposal 2. In Option 2-2, Figure 8 As shown, in "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH", there is first a "cell with only TB-based SPS", and then there is a "cell with CBG based SPS". Figure 8 middle, Figure 7 The “cell with only CBG-based SPS” in is replaced by “cell with CBG-based SPS”. Here, “cell with only TB-based SPS” may correspond to a field containing only HARQ-ACK for TB-based SPS PDSCH, and “cell with CBG-based SPS” may correspond to a field containing HARQ-ACK for CBG-based SPS PDSCH.
[0267] In addition, Figure 8 In the figure, an example is shown in which the "cell having only TB-based SPS" and the "cell having CBG-based SPS" are each one, but the "cell having only TB-based SPS" and the "cell having CBG-based SPS" can also be more than two.
[0268] And, if Figure 8 As shown, the order of the fields included in the "cell with CBG-based SPS" is first based on the order of the cell indexes of the serving cells such as "cell index #i_1" and "cell index #i_2". Then, in the field corresponding to the "cell index #i_1", the "TB-based SPS configuration" is arranged first, and then the "CBG-based SPS configuration" is arranged. Here, the "TB-based SPS configuration" corresponds to the SPS configuration for TB-based transmission, and the "CBG-based SPS configuration" corresponds to the SPS configuration for CBG-based transmission.
[0269] Next, the order of the fields included in the "TB-based SPS setting" is based on the order of the indexes of the SPS setting as shown in "SPS setting index #j_1" and "SPS setting index #j_2". Next, the order of the cells included in the "SPS setting index #j_1" is based on the order of the indexes of the DL slots as shown in "DL slot index #m_1" and "DL slot index #m_2".
[0270] In addition, Figure 8 Although it is omitted in "Cell Index #i_2", as in "Cell Index #i_1", "TB-based SPS setting" can be arranged, followed by "CBG-based SPS setting". In addition, the order of the fields included in "SPS setting index #j_2" can be based on the order of the DL time slot index.
[0271] In addition, Figure 8 The order of cells included in the "CBG-based SPS setting" omitted in the description is not particularly limited. For example, any order of the following options 2-2A and 2-2B may be adopted.
[0272] (Option 2-2A)
[0273] In Option 2-2A, the order of the fields included in the "CBG-based SPS setting" may be based first on the order of the indexes set by the SPS, and then on the order of the indexes of the DL slots. For example, the order of the indexes set by the SPS may be in either ascending or descending order of the indexes. In addition, the order of the indexes of the DL slots may be in either ascending or descending order of the indexes.
[0274] Fig. 9 This is a diagram showing an example of Option 2-2A of Proposal 2. Fig. 9 In, with Figure 8Similarly, the "SPS settings based on TB" are arranged, and then the "SPS settings based on CBG" are arranged. Fig. 9 The "TB-based SPS setting" and "CBG-based SPS setting" shown in Figure 8 Likewise, it may be included in a field corresponding to a cell index of a certain serving cell (for example, a field corresponding to "cell index #i_1").
[0275] like Fig. 9 As shown, the order of the fields included in the "CBG-based SPS configuration" is based on the order of the indexes of the SPS configuration as shown in "SPS configuration index #k_1 (SPS configuration index#k_1)", "SPS configuration index #k_2 (SPS configuration index#k_2)". Next, the order of the fields included in the "SPS configuration index #k_1" is based on the order of the indexes of the DL time slots as shown in "DL time slot index #n_1", "DL time slot index #n_2".
[0276] In addition, Fig. 9 Although omitted in the text, the order of the fields included in "SPS setting index #j_2" can be based on the order of the indexes of the DL time slots. For example, the order of the indexes set by the SPS can be either in ascending order or in descending order. In addition, the order of the indexes of the DL time slots can be either in ascending order or in descending order.
[0277] (Option 2-2B)
[0278] In option 2-2B, the order of the fields included in the "CBG-based SPS setting" may be first based on the order of specific numbers associated with the HARQ-ACK CB, then based on the order of indexes set by the SPS, and then based on the order of indexes of the DL time slots. For example, the order of specific numbers associated with the HARQ-ACK may be in ascending order or descending order of the specific numbers associated with the HARQ-ACK. In addition, the order of indexes set by the SPS may be in ascending order or descending order of the indexes. In addition, the order of indexes of the DL time slots may be in ascending order or descending order of the indexes.
[0279] Here, the so-called specific number related to the HARQ-ACK CB can be, for example, the number of CBGs, the number of CBGs per TB, or the number of HARQ-ACK bits. For example, the number of CBGs is the number of CBGs per PDSCH set for the SPS. For example, the number of CBGs per TB is the number of CBGs per TB for each PDSCH set for the SPS. The number of CBGs can also be replaced by the maximum number of CBGs. For example, the number of HARQ-ACK bits is the number of HARQ-ACK bits per PDSCH set for the SPS.
[0280] Fig.10 This is a diagram showing an example of Option 2-2B of Proposal 2. Fig.10 In, with Figure 8 Similarly, the "SPS settings based on TB" are arranged, and then the "SPS settings based on CBG" are arranged. Fig.10 The "TB-based SPS setting" and "CBG-based SPS setting" shown in Figure 8 Likewise, it may be included in a field corresponding to a cell index of a certain serving cell (for example, a field corresponding to "cell index #i_1").
[0281] like Fig.10 As shown, in the "SPS configuration based on CBG", the cells represented as "SPS configuration with (maximum) N_1CBGs" and "SPS configuration with (maximum) N_1CBG" are arranged in sequence. Here, "SPS configuration with (maximum) N_1CBG" corresponds to the field in which the maximum number of CBGs configured for SPS is N_1, and "SPS configuration with (maximum) N_2CBGs" corresponds to the field in which the maximum number of CBGs configured for SPS is N_2. In addition, by way of example, in the case of ascending order of the maximum number of CBGs, N_2 can be larger than N_1.
[0282] Next, the order of the fields included in the "SPS setting with (maximum) N_1 CBG" is based on the order of the indexes of the SPS setting as shown in "SPS setting index #k_1", "SPS setting index #k_2". Next, the order of the cells included in the "SPS setting index #k_1" is based on the order of the indexes of the DL slots as shown in "DL slot index #n_1", "DL slot index #n_2".
[0283] (Option 3)
[0284] In option 3, the sorting is first performed based on the cell index of the serving cell, and in the sorting within the same cell, the field corresponding to the TB-based SPS setting exists before the field corresponding to the CBG-based SPS setting. And, in the TB-based SPS setting, the sorting is performed in the order of the index of the SPS setting, and then the sorting is performed in the order of the index of the DL time slot. In addition, in the CBG-based SPS setting, the sorting is performed in the order of the index of the SPS setting, and then the sorting is performed in the order of the index of the DL time slot.
[0285] Fig.11 This is a diagram showing an example of Option 3 of Proposal 2. Fig.11 The order of fields in "HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH" is first based on the order of cell indexes of serving cells. And, in "Cell Index #i_1", "TB-based SPS setting" exists before "CBG-based SPS setting". "TB-based SPS setting" and "CBG-based SPS setting" are included in the field with cell index #i_1. And, the order of fields included in "TB-based SPS setting" is based on the order of indexes of SPS settings as shown in "SPS setting index #j_1" and "SPS setting index #j_2". Next, the order of fields included in "SPS setting index #j_1" is based on the order of indexes of DL slots as shown in "DL slot index #m_1" and "DL slot index #m_2".
[0286] In addition, Fig.11 Although omitted in the description, the order of fields included in the "CBG-based SPS setting" can be the same as the order of fields included in the "TB-based SPS setting". For example, the order of fields included in the "CBG-based SPS setting" can be first based on the order of indexes of the SPS setting, and then, based on the order of indexes of the DL time slots.
[0287] The differences between Option 3 and Option 2 are explained below. As mentioned above, in Option 2, Figure 6 In the example of "a cell with only TB-based SPS" corresponding to a cell that performs only TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission, and "a cell with only CBG-based SPS" corresponding to a cell that performs only CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, the differences in the operations of the cells are first considered and classified, and then sorted in the order of the index of each cell. On the other hand, in option 3, when sorting is performed based on the order of cell indexes, the differences in cells are not considered.
[0288] (Option 4)
[0289] In the above-mentioned options 1 to 3, an example is shown in which the codebook for SPS PDSCH (referred to as the "codebook for HARQ-ACK for SPS PDSCH") includes one or both of HARQ-ACK for TB-based SPS PDSCH and HARQ-ACK for CBG-based SPS PDSCH. In option 4, a subcodebook for TB-based SPS PDSCH and a subcodebook for CBG-based SPS PDSCH are distinguished. In the subcodebook for TB-based SPS PDSCH, HARQ-ACK for TB-based SPS PDSCH is included. In the subcodebook for CBG-based SPS PDSCH, HARQ-ACK for CBG-based SPS PDSCH is included.
[0290] The subcodebook for the TB-based SPS PDSCH can be recorded as a TB-based SPS subcodebook (TB based SPS sub-codebook) or recorded in other expressions. The subcodebook for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH can be recorded as a CBG-based SPS subcodebook (CBG based SPS sub-codebook) or recorded in other expressions.
[0291] The positional relationship (e.g., order) of the subcodebook for the TB-based SPS PDSCH, the subcodebook for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH, the subcodebook for the TB-based DG PDSCH, and the subcodebook for the CBG-based DG PDSCH is not particularly limited. For example, any of the following options 4-1 and 4-2 may be used.
[0292] (Option 4-1)
[0293] In option 4-1, the subcodebook for TB-based SPS PDSCH and the subcodebook for CBG-based SPS PDSCH are appended to the codebook for DG PDSCH. The codebook for DG PDSCH corresponds to both the codebook for TB-based DGPDSCH and the codebook for CBG-based DG PDSCH. The codebook for DG PDSCH includes HARQ-ACK for DG PDSCH. In other words, the subcodebook for TB-based SPS PDSCH and the subcodebook for CBG-based SPS PDSCH are appended to the HARQ-ACK for DG PDSCH (also referred to as DG HARQ-ACK).
[0294] In Option 4-1, a structure in which a subcodebook for SPS PDSCH is added after the codebook for DG PDSCH may also be adopted. In Option 4-1, for example, the codebook for TB-based DG PDSCH is arranged first, and then the codebook for CBG-based DG PDSCH, the subcodebook for TB-based SPS PDSCH, and the subcodebook for CBG-based SPS PDSCH are arranged in sequence.
[0295] (Option 4-2)
[0296] In option 4-2, the subcodebook for the TB-based SPS PDSCH is added after the codebook for the TB-based DG PDSCH, and the subcodebook for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH is added after the codebook for the CBG-based DG PDSCH. In this case, the subcodebook for the TB-based SPS PDSCH can also be added before the codebook for the CBG-based DG PDSCH.
[0297] Option 4-2 may also adopt a structure in which a subcodebook for CBG based PDSCH (CBG based PDSCH) is added after the subcodebook for TB based PDSCH (TB based PDSCH). In Option 4-2, for example, the codebook for TB based DG PDSCH is first arranged, and then the subcodebook for TB based SPS PDSCH, the codebook for CBG based DG PDSCH, and the subcodebook for CBG based SPS PDSCH are arranged in sequence.
[0298] Fig.12 This is a diagram showing an example of Option 4 of Proposal 2. Fig.12 , an example of the order in each CB of the above-mentioned options 4-1 and 4-2 is shown.
[0299] exist Fig.12 In the example of option 4-1, with Figure 5 Similarly, in HARQ-ACK CB, "HARQ-ACK for TB-based DG PDSCH" and "HARQ-ACK for CBG-based DG PDSCH" are arranged first, and after "HARQ-ACK for CBG-based DG PDSCH", "HARQ-ACK for TBbased SPS PDSCH (HARQ-ACK for TBbased SPS PDSCH)" and "HARQ-ACK for CBG based SPS PDSCH (HARQ-ACK for CBG basedSPS PDSCH)" are arranged.
[0300] In addition, in the structure of option 4, the construction method of the TB-based SPS subcodebook and the CBG-based SPS subcodebook is not particularly limited. For example, in the construction of the TB-based SPS subcodebook, any of the methods shown in options 2 and / or 3 may also be used. In addition, in the construction of the CBG-based SPS subcodebook, any of the methods shown in options 2 and / or 3 may also be used.
[0301] (About the number of HARQ-ACK bits in Proposal 2)
[0302] In each option of the above-mentioned proposal 2, for the TB-based SPS configuration, the number of HARQ-ACK bits per SPS PDSCH is 1.
[0303] In each option of the above-mentioned proposal 2, for the CBG-based SPS setting, the number of HARQ-ACK bits per SPS PDSCH or the number of HARQ-ACK bits per TB is M. M may be an integer greater than 0. In addition, M may be specified by any one of the following options 1 to 3.
[0304] (Select 1)
[0305] In option 1, M can be the same for all CBG-based SPS settings for all serving cells.
[0306] In option 1, M may be the maximum value in a set of specific values. For example, the set of specific values is a set of the number of CBGs (or the maximum number of CBGs) for the SPS of all serving cells. In addition, for example, the set of specific values is a set of the number of CBGs (or the maximum number of CBGs) for the SPS of all serving cells and all CBG-based SPS settings of each cell.
[0307] In addition, the set of specific values may not be limited to these. In addition, the number of values included in the set of specific values may be one or more.
[0308] In addition, in option 1, M is not limited to the example of the maximum value in the set of specific values. M may be a value determined based on the set of specific values. M may also be any one of the minimum value, average value, and median value in the set of specific values. Alternatively, M may also be specified by a calculation process based on the values included in the set of specific values and / or the number of values included.
[0309] (Select 2)
[0310] In Option 2, M may be the same value for the CBG-based SPS configuration of the same serving cell. In this case, M may be different or the same for the CBG-based SPS configuration of different serving cells.
[0311] In Option 2, in each serving cell, M may be the maximum value in a set of specific values. For example, the set of specific values is a set of the number of CBGs (or the maximum number of CBGs) for an SPS set for a certain cell. In the case where Option 1 of Proposal 1 described above is applied, the set of specific values may also be a set of the number of CBGs (or the maximum number of CBGs) for an SPS set for a certain cell.
[0312] In addition, for example, the set of specific values in a certain cell is the set of the number of CBGs of SPSs (or the maximum number of CBGs) for all CBG-based SPS settings for the cell. In the case where option 2 of the above-mentioned proposal 1 is applied, the set of specific values can be the set of the number of CBGs of SPSs (or the maximum number of CBGs) for all CBG-based SPS settings for the cell.
[0313] In addition, the set of specific values may not be limited to these. In addition, the number of values included in the set of specific values may be one or more.
[0314] (Select 3)
[0315] In option 3, for each CBG-based SPS setting of the same serving cell, M can be different from each other or the same. In addition, for each CBG-based SPS setting of different serving cells, M can be different from each other or the same.
[0316] For each CBG-based SPS setting of each serving cell, M may be the number of CBGs set for the SPS (or the maximum number of CBGs).
[0317] (Effect)
[0318] According to Proposal 2 described above, a HARQ-ACK CB including a HARQ-ACK for a CBG-based SPS PDSCH can be constructed in an appropriate form, so that HARQ-ACK feedback can be performed efficiently. For example, in a case where a CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is performed in a certain cell, the HARQ-ACK for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH is included in the HARQ-ACK CB as distinguished from the HARQ-ACK for other PDSCHs (e.g., a TB-based SPS PDSCH, and / or a DG PDSCH). A base station that receives such a HARQ-ACK CB can perform appropriate retransmission control, etc., thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0319] In addition, the example of the order described as ascending in each option of the above-mentioned proposal 2 can also be replaced with descending. In addition, in each option of proposal 2, ascending and descending orders can also exist in a mixed manner. For example, the order of a plurality of cells can also be based on the ascending order of the index set by the SPS, and the descending order of the DL time slot.
[0320] In addition, the HARQ-ACK CB is generated by the terminal, but which construction process of the above-mentioned Proposal 2 is used for generation can be determined by the terminal, instructed by the base station, or stipulated by the specification.
[0321] <Proposal 3>
[0322] In Proposal 3, it is proposed to dynamically / adaptively update the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH transmission.
[0323] The terminal 20 can follow the instructions of the base station 10 to dynamically update the application of SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on CBG or SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on TB, or can adaptively update the application of SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on CBG or SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on TB according to a pre-set semi-static mode.
[0324] (1) Dynamic Update
[0325] The following describes (1-1) the update indication method and (1-2) the range of SPS / CG settings that are the subject of update in the case of dynamically updating the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission.
[0326] (1-1) Update instruction method
[0327] In the present application, the following options are proposed for a method of indicating dynamic updates of applications of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0328] (Option 1) DCI-based indication
[0329] The base station 10 may indicate to the terminal 20 through DCI the update of application of SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission, or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission. In this case, the following variants are considered.
[0330] (Option 1-1)
[0331] A new DCI format may be prepared, and the base station 10 uses the new DCI format to indicate an update of an application for SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH, CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission, or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission. In this case, the new DCI format may have a new RNTI (Radio Network Temporary Identifier) or may have an existing RNTI instead of a new RNTI.
[0332] (Option 1-2)
[0333] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use an existing DCI format with a new RNTI to indicate an update of application of SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH, CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission, or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission.
[0334] (Options 1-3)
[0335] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use an existing DCI format with an existing RNTI to indicate an update of application of SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH, CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission, or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission.
[0336] (Option 1-3A)
[0337] In this case, a new field may be set, and information indicating the application update of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission may be written in the new field. In addition, the new field may also be multiple.
[0338] (Option 1-3B)
[0339] Alternatively, information indicating an update of an application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission may be written in an unused field within an existing field. In addition, there may be multiple unused fields. In this case, the value of a specific field within the existing unused field is used to indicate whether to reinterpret the DCI format, with the purpose of dynamically updating the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission. Terminal 20 can determine the update of the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission by reinterpreting the DCI format.
[0340] (Option 2) MAC CE-based indication
[0341] The base station 10 may instruct the terminal 20, through a MAC CE, to update the application of SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission, or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission. In this case, the following variants are considered.
[0342] (Option 2-1)
[0343] A new MAC CE may be prepared, and the base station 10 uses the new MAC CE to indicate an update of application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0344] (Option 2-2)
[0345] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use an existing MAC CE with a new octet to indicate an update of application of SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission, or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission.
[0346] (Option 2-3)
[0347] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use an existing MAC CE with an existing eight-bit byte to indicate an update to the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH transmission for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH. In this case, the reserved bit is used to indicate whether the MAC CE is interpreted as an update purpose for CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission.
[0348] (1-2) Range of SPS / CG settings to be updated
[0349] In this application, it is proposed to update the scope of SPS / CG settings for applications of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission.
[0350] (Select 1)
[0351] The scope of application of the dynamically updated CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH transmission may also be set for each SPS / CG based on one DCI / MAC CE.
[0352] In this case, the base station 10 may instruct the terminal 20 to update the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission in the SPS / CG setting by using an index representing the target SPS / CG setting.
[0353] (Select 1-1)
[0354] The index may also be explicitly indicated to the terminal 20 through a field / bit of the DCI or MAC CE.
[0355] (Select 1-2)
[0356] Alternatively, the index may be implicitly indicated to the terminal 20. For example, when the dynamic update of the parameters of the SPS PDSCH is indicated by the MAC CE, the index of the SPS configuration of the object is the index of the SPS configuration of the SPS PDSCH occasion conveying the MAC CE.
[0357] (Select 2)
[0358] The application scope of the dynamically updated CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH transmission may also be all (activated) SPS / CG settings based on one DCI / MAC CE.
[0359] (Choose 2-1)
[0360] In this case, a common indication field / bit may be set for all SPS / CGs.
[0361] (Choose 2-2)
[0362] Alternatively, a separate indication field / bit may be set for all SPS / CGs.
[0363] (Select 3)
[0364] The scope of application of the dynamically updated CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH transmission may also be a group set for each SPS / CG based on one DCI / MAC CE.
[0365] (Select 3-1A)
[0366] In this case, a common indication field / bit may be set for the group set for SPS / CG.
[0367] (Option 3-1B)
[0368] Alternatively, a separate indication field / bit may be set for the group configured for SPS / CG.
[0369] In addition, in this case, the base station 10 can also instruct the terminal 20 to dynamically update the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH transmission in the SPS / CG setting by using the index of the group representing the object's SPS / CG setting.
[0370] (Select 3-2A)
[0371] The index may also be explicitly indicated to the terminal 20 through a field / bit of the DCI or MAC CE.
[0372] (Option 3-2B)
[0373] Alternatively, the index may be implicitly indicated to the terminal 20. For example, when the dynamic update of the parameters of the SPS PDSCH is indicated by the MAC CE, the index of the SPS configuration of the object is the index of the SPS configuration of the SPS PDSCH timing conveying the MAC CE.
[0374] (2) Update based on semi-static model
[0375] The following describes an application of updating CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on a semi-static mode.
[0376] (Select 1)
[0377] In option 1, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on the index value of the SPS / CG occasion.
[0378] For example, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission when the index value N of the SPS / CG opportunity satisfies N mod X1 = {Y1_1, Y1_2, ...}, and may apply TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission when N mod X1 = {Y2_1, Y2_2, ...}. Here, N is an integer greater than 1, X1 is an integer greater than 2, Y1_1, Y1_2, ... and Y2_1, Y2_2, ... are integers greater than 1 and less than (X1-1), respectively, and are different numbers.
[0379] In addition, the values of X1, Y1_1, Y1_2, Y2_1, Y2_2, etc. may be predefined in the specification or the like, or may be notified to the terminal 20 through higher layer signaling such as RRC.
[0380] In the case of pre-specified in the specification, different combinations of values may be specified for each XR service. In addition, in the case of notification through high-layer signaling, different combinations of values may be configured for each XR service and / or for each SPS / CG setting.
[0381] (Select 2)
[0382] In option 2, the terminal 20 applies CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission based on the index value of the time slot of the SPS / CG opportunity.
[0383] For example, the terminal 20 may apply CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission when the index value M of the time slot of the SPS / CG opportunity satisfies M mod X1={Y1_1, Y1_2, ...}, and may apply TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission when M mod X1={Y2_1, Y2_2, ...}. Here, M is an integer greater than 1, X1 is an integer greater than 2, and Y1_1, Y1_2, ... and Y2_1, Y2_2, ... are any integers greater than 0 and less than (X1-1), and are different numbers.
[0384] In addition, the values of X1, Y1_1, Y1_2, Y2_1, Y2_2, etc. may be predefined in the specification or the like, or may be notified to the terminal 20 through higher layer signaling such as RRC.
[0385] When pre-specified in the specification, a different combination of values may be specified for each XR service. In addition, when notified by higher layer signaling, a different combination of values may be configured for each XR service and / or for each SPS / CG setting.
[0386] (3) Impact of the updated HARK-ACK CB
[0387] The following describes the possible impact of HARQ-ACK CB when the application of CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission is dynamically updated.
[0388] (3-1)
[0389] In the case of dynamically updated applications of CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission, at least the HARQ-ACK CB described in Option 1 and Option 2-1 of Proposal 2 above can also be directly reused.
[0390] (3-2)
[0391] In addition, the order of the SPS HARQ-ACK bits of Option 2-2 and Option 3 of the above-mentioned Proposal 2 may be reused. However, it is necessary to clarify whether the SPS setting should be included in the "TB-based SPS setting" or the "CBG-based SPS setting". In this regard, the following alternative is proposed.
[0392] (Select 1)
[0393] In option 1, the terminal 20 may include only one SPS setting in either the "TB-based SPS setting" part or the "CBG-based SPS setting" part.
[0394] (Select 1-1)
[0395] The terminal 20 may determine the portion including the SPS setting based on whether the CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is enabled in the SPS setting.
[0396] For example, when CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission is valid for SPS setting, regardless of whether the current SPS PDSCH with SPS setting of HARQ-ACK reported through HARQ-ACK CB is CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission, the terminal 20 can include the SPS setting in the "CBG-based SPS setting". In addition, in other cases, the terminal 20 can also include the SPS setting in the "TB-based SPS setting".
[0397] (Select 1-2)
[0398] In addition, the terminal 20 can also determine the part including the SPS setting based on the presence or absence of CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission for SPS PDSCH according to the SPS setting of HARQ-ACK reported through the HARQ-ACK CB.
[0399] For example, in the case where there is a HARQ-ACK corresponding to a CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission or a TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission in at least one SPS PDSCH of an SPS configuration that should be reported via a HARQ-ACK PUCCH, the SPS configuration is an object of a "CBG / TB based SPS configuration". Furthermore, the terminal 20 reports the SPS PDSCH with the SPS configuration of the HARQ-ACK included in the same HARQ-ACK PUCCH in the "CBG / TB based SPS configuration" block, regardless of whether there is an SPS configuration of the HARQ-ACK that should be reported for the same HARQ-ACK CB with a TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission. In addition, in other cases, the terminal 20 may also include the SPS configuration in the "TB / CBG based SPS configuration". That is, in the case where there is a HARQ-ACK sent for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH, the SPS PDSCH set by the SPS is reported in the CBG-based SPS setting block, and in the case where the HARQ-ACK does not exist, the SPS PDSCH set by the SPS is reported in the TB-based SPS setting block. Similarly, in the case where there is a HARQ-ACK sent for the TB-based SPS PDSCH, the SPS PDSCH set by the SPS is reported in the TB-based SPS setting block, and in the case where the HARQ-ACK does not exist, the SPS PDSCH set by the SPS is reported in the CBG-based SPS setting block.
[0400] (Select 2)
[0401] In option 2, the terminal 20 may include the SPS setting in both the "TB-based SPS setting" part and the "CBG-based SPS setting" part when there is a TB-based SPS PDSCH with an SPS setting of HARQ-ACK to be reported via the HARQ-ACK CB and a CBG-based SPS PDSCH.
[0402] For example, when the SPS setting is included in the "TB-based SPS setting" part, only the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH transmitted with the TB-based SPS PDSCH is included. In addition, when the SPS setting is included in the "TB-based SPS setting" part, only the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH transmitted with the CBG-based SPS PDSCH is included.
[0403] (3-3)
[0404] In addition, as described in Option 4 of Proposal 2 above, separate sub-codebooks can also be reused. However, it is necessary to clarify whether the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH is included in the TB based sub-codebook or the CBG based sub-codebook. In this regard, the following options are proposed.
[0405] (Select 1)
[0406] In option 1, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK corresponding to the SPS PDSCH of the same SPS configuration reported through the same PUCCH in the same subcodebook.
[0407] (Select 1-1)
[0408] The terminal 20 sets whether to include the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH in the TB-based subcodebook or the CBG-based subcodebook based on whether the CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is valid in the SPS setting.
[0409] For example, when CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is valid for SPS setting, regardless of whether the current SPS PDSCH set by SPS is CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission or TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH in the CBG-based subcodebook. In other cases, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH in the TB-based subcodebook.
[0410] (Select 1-2)
[0411] The terminal 20 sets whether to include the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH in the TB-based subcodebook or in the CBG-based subcodebook based on whether there is CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission / TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission for the SPS PDSCH with the SPS configuration of the HARQ-ACK to be reported through the HARQ-ACK CB.
[0412] For example, when there is a CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission corresponding to at least one SPS PDSCH that should be reported through the HARQ-ACK PUCCH, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK corresponding to the SPS PDSCH set by the SPS in the CBG-based subcodebook. In other cases, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK for the SPS PDSCH in the TB-based subcodebook.
[0413] On the contrary, when there is a TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission corresponding to at least one SPS PDSCH that should be reported through the HARQ-ACK PUCCH, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK corresponding to the SPS PDSCH set by the SPS in the TB-based subcodebook. In other cases, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK for the SPS PDSCH in the CBG-based subcodebook.
[0414] (Select 2)
[0415] In option 2, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK corresponding to the SPS PDSCH of the same SPS configuration reported through the same PUCCH in separate subcodebooks.
[0416] For example, the terminal 20 includes the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH transmitted for the TB-based SPS PDSCH in the TB-based subcodebook, and includes the HARQ-ACK of the SPS PDSCH transmitted for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH in the CBG-based subcodebook.
[0417] (4) Number of HARQ-ACK bits per SPS PDSCH
[0418] When the SPS setting is valid for CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, the terminal 20 sets the number of HARQ-ACK bits for each SPS PDSCH in consideration of a change in TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission or CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission.
[0419] For example, for the CBG-based SPS PDSCH set by SPS, the number of HARQ-ACK bits of the CBG-based SPS setting described in Proposal 2 can also be reused to set the number of HARQ-ACK bits (i.e., M bits).
[0420] In addition, for the TB-based SPS PDSCH set by SPS, the number of HARQ-ACK bits of the CBG-based SPS setting can also be set to 1 bit or M bits (that is, the same as the number of HARQ-ACK bits of the CBG-based SPSDSCH (CBG based SPSDSCH) set by the same SPS).
[0421] Below, use Fig.13 Specific examples of Option 1 and Option 2 are described below.
[0422] In the above option 1-1 or option 1-2, Fig.13 In the CBG-based SPS configuration part, SPS config#1 is included. In addition, two SPS PDSCHs in two time slots are located at the position of SPS config#1.
[0423] In addition, in option 2 above, Fig.13 In the TB-based SPS setting part and the CBG-based SPS setting part, SPS config#1 is included in both. In the TB-based SPS setting part, only the first PDSCH time slot exists at the position of SPS config#1. In addition, in the CBG-based SPS setting part, only the second PDSCH time slot exists at the position of SPS config#1.
[0424] (Effect)
[0425] According to Proposal 3 described above, in SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, when either CBG-based transmission or TB-based transmission is applied, dynamic / adaptive updates can be performed on them. When CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission is applied, it is also possible to dynamically switch to TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission application in accordance with the instructions of the base station 10. In addition, it is also possible to adaptively switch between CBG-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission and TB-based SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH transmission in accordance with a pre-set semi-static mode.
[0426] <Proposal 4>
[0427] Proposal 4 proposes that, when a maximum of two codewords per 1 TB are supported in SPS PDSCH or CG PUSCH, the terminal 20 sets a criterion for determining whether to apply a single codeword or a dual codeword to SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0428] As a specific example of Proposal 4, the following options are proposed.
[0429] (Select 1)
[0430] In option 1, the terminal 20 sets which of single codewords and double codewords to be applied for the SPS / CG setting based on a higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information of the maximum number of codewords set for each SPS / CG setting or a higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information of the maximum number of codewords set for all SPS / CG settings, for example, maxNrofCodeWordsSpsPdsch / maxNrofCodeWordsCgPusch.
[0431] For example, when maxNrofCodeWordsSpsPdsch indicates a double codeword, the terminal 20 may receive a double codeword for the SPS setting, and receive a single codeword in other cases. Similarly, when maxNrofCodeWordsCgPusch indicates a double codeword, the terminal 20 may send a double codeword for the CG setting, and send a single codeword in other cases.
[0432] (Select 2)
[0433] In option 2, the terminal 20 sets which of the single codeword and the double codeword to be applied for the SPS / CG setting based on a combination of a higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information of the maximum number of codewords set for each SPS / CG setting or a higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information of the maximum number of codewords set for all SPS / CG settings and an activated DCI format.
[0434] For example, when maxNrofCodeWordsSpsPdsch indicates a double codeword and a specific field of the activated DCI format indicates a specific DCI format (e.g., DCI 1_1), the terminal 20 may receive a double codeword for the SPS setting, and may receive a single codeword in other cases. Similarly, when maxNrofCodeWordsCgPusch indicates a double codeword and a specific field of the activated DCI format indicates a specific DCI format (e.g., DCI 1_1), the terminal 20 may send a double codeword for the CG setting, and may send a single codeword in other cases.
[0435] Alternatively, the terminal 20 may receive a double codeword for the SPS setting when at least one of maxNrofCodeWordsSpsPdsch indicates a double codeword and a specific field of the activated DCI format indicates a specific DCI format (e.g., DCI 1_1) is satisfied, and receive a single codeword in other cases. Similarly, the terminal 20 may send a double codeword for the CG setting when at least one of maxNrofCodeWordsCgPusch indicates a double codeword and a specific field of the activated DCI format indicates a specific DCI format (e.g., DCI 1_1) is satisfied, and send a single codeword in other cases.
[0436] (Select 3)
[0437] In option 3, the terminal 20 sets which of the single codeword and the double codeword to be applied for the SPS / CG setting based on a combination of a higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information of the maximum number of codewords set for each SPS / CG setting or a higher-layer parameter (RRC parameter) which is setting information of the maximum number of codewords set for all SPS / CG settings and a DCI field in the activation DCI.
[0438] For example, when maxNrofCodeWordsSpsPdsch indicates a double codeword and a specific field in the activated DCI indicates activation of the double codeword, the terminal 20 may receive a double codeword for the SPS setting, and may receive a single codeword in other cases. Similarly, when maxNrofCodeWordsCgPusch indicates a double codeword and a specific field in the activated DCI indicates activation of the double codeword, the terminal 20 may send a double codeword for the CG setting, and may send a single codeword in other cases.
[0439] Alternatively, the terminal 20 may receive the double codeword for the SPS setting when at least one of maxNrofCodeWordsSpsPdsch indicating the double codeword and activation of a specific field in the DCI indicating the activation of the double codeword is satisfied, and receive the single codeword in other cases. Similarly, the terminal 20 may send the double codeword for the CG setting when at least one of maxNrofCodeWordsCgPusch indicating the double codeword and activation of a specific field in the DCI indicating the activation of the double codeword is satisfied, and send the single codeword in other cases.
[0440] In addition, the specific field within the activated DCI may be a new DCI field, an existing DCI field, or a combination of fields representing predefined values (eg, an MCS field and an RV field).
[0441] When the terminal 20 sets the SPS / CG setting with dual codeword transmission, the MCS / NDI / RV fields of the first TB and the second TB in the DCI are respectively applied to the codewords of the SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH.
[0442] (Effect)
[0443] As described above, according to Proposal 4, dual codewords can be supported even in SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, which is semi-persistent scheduling, so the retransmission frequency can be reduced, delay can be reduced, transmission efficiency can be improved, and reliability can be ensured.
[0444] <Proposal 5>
[0445] In Proposal 5, HARQ-ACK CB for SPS PDSCH to which two transport blocks (2-TB) are applied, for example, HARQ-ACK CB for 2-TB based SPS PDSCH is described. In addition, 2-TB may also be replaced with 2-codeword (2-codeword (CW)).
[0446] (Option 1)
[0447] In option 1, use Figure 4 The construction process of the CB of the SPS HARQ-ACK described above is reused for the construction process of the CB of the HARQ-ACK for the 2-TB based SPS PDSCH. Here, it may be that only the number of HARQ-ACK bits is different between the HARQ-ACK CB for the 2-TB based SPS PDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the 1-TB based SPS PDSCH (1-TB based SPSPDSCH). In other words, it may be that the number of HARQ-ACK bits is different between the HARQ-ACK CB for the 2-TB based SPSPDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the 1-TB based SPS PDSCH, and on the other hand, elements other than the number of HARQ-ACK bits are common between the HARQ-ACK CB for the 2-TB based SPS PDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the 1-TB based SPS PDSCH. Elements other than the number of HARQ-ACK bits include, for example, decisions related to the order of fields constituting the CB (or HARQ-ACK included in the fields).
[0448] The order of the SPS HARQ-ACK bits in the 2-TB SPS HARQ-ACK CB (order of fields) may be first based on the ascending order of the cell index of the serving cell, then based on the ascending order of the index set by the SPS, and then based on the ascending order of the index of the DL time slot. The order of the SPS HARQ-ACK bits may also be common between the HARQ-ACK CB for the 2-TB based SPS PDSCH and the HARQ-ACK CB for the 1-TB based SPS PDSCH.
[0449] (Option 2)
[0450] In Option 2 of Proposal 5, the same order as Option 2 of Proposal 2 may be adopted. For example, in Option 2 of Proposal 5, the structure in Option 2 of Proposal 2 may be adopted in which the "TB-based SPS configuration" is replaced with the "single-codeword based SPS configuration", and the "CBG-based SPS configuration" is replaced with the "two-codeword based SPS configuration".
[0451] (Option 3)
[0452] In Option 3 of Proposal 5, the same order as Option 3 of Proposal 2 can be adopted. For example, in Option 3 of Proposal 5, the structure in Option 3 of Proposal 2 can be adopted, in which the "TB-based SPS setting" is replaced with the "single codeword-based SPS setting", and the "CBG-based SPS setting" is replaced with the "dual codeword-based SPS setting".
[0453] (About the number of HARQ-ACK bits in Proposal 5)
[0454] The number of HARQ-ACK bits per SPS PDSCH is described in each option of the above-mentioned proposal 5. The number of HARQ-ACK bits per SPS PDSCH can be defined by any one of the following options 1 to 3.
[0455] (Select 1)
[0456] In option 1, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for each SPS PDSCH can be the same value for all SPS PDSCHs in all cells. In the case where there is at least one SPS PDSCH configured to transmit a maximum of 2 codewords across all cells, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for any SPS PDSCH in any cell can be 2. Otherwise, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for any SPS PDSCH in any cell can be 1. The so-called otherwise case may be, for example, a case where there is no SPS PDSCH configured to transmit a maximum of 2 codewords across all cells.
[0457] (Select 2)
[0458] In option 2, for the SPS setting of the same service cell, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for each SPS PDSCH can be the same value. In this case, for the SPS settings of different service cells, M can be different or the same. In a cell, when there is at least one SPS PDSCH that is set to send a maximum of 2 codewords, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for any SPS PDSCH of the cell can be 2. Otherwise, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for any SPS PDSCH of the cell can be 1. The so-called not being the case may be, for example, a situation where there is no SPS PDSCH that is set to send a maximum of 2 codewords in the cell.
[0459] (Select 3)
[0460] In option 3, for different SPS settings, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for each SPS PDSCH can be different or the same. For example, when the SPS setting is set to transmit a maximum of 2 codewords, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for the SPS PDSCH of the SPS setting can be 2. Otherwise, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for the SPS PDSCH of the SPS setting can be 1. The so-called otherwise case may be, for example, a case where the SPS setting is not set to transmit a maximum of 2 codewords.
[0461] (Effect)
[0462] According to Proposal 5 described above, a HARQ-ACK CB including HARQ-ACK in a 2-TB SPS PDSCH can be constructed in an appropriate form, so that HARQ-ACK feedback can be performed efficiently. For example, when SPS PDSCH transmission (SPS PDSCH transmission) with different TB numbers is performed in a certain cell, the HARQ-ACK for the 2TB SPS PDSCH transmission (2TB SPS PDSCH transmission) is included in the HARQ-ACK CB differently from the HARQ-ACK for other PDSCHs (for example, 1TB based SPS PDSCH (1TB based SPS PDSCH), and / or DG PDSCH). The base station that receives such a HARQ-ACK CB can perform appropriate retransmission control, etc., thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0463] In addition, the HARQ-ACK CB is generated by the terminal, but which construction process of the above-mentioned Proposal 5 is used for generation can be determined by the terminal, instructed by the base station, or stipulated by the specification.
[0464] <Proposal 6>
[0465] In Proposal 6, a dynamic / adaptive update of the application of single or dual codewords for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH is proposed.
[0466] The terminal 20 can either follow the instructions of the base station 10 to dynamically update the application of single or double codewords for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, or follow a pre-set semi-static mode to adaptively update the application of single or double codewords for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0467] (1) Dynamic Update
[0468] The following describes (1-1) the update indication method and (1-2) the range of SPS / CG settings that are the subject of update when a single codeword or dual codeword application is dynamically updated.
[0469] (1-1) Update instruction method
[0470] In the present application, the following options are proposed for a method of indicating dynamic updates of the application of single codewords or dual codewords for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0471] (Option 1) DCI-based indication
[0472] The base station 10 may indicate, through DCI, to the terminal 20 the update of the application of the single codeword or the dual codeword for the SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH. In this case, the following variants are considered.
[0473] (Option 1-1)
[0474] A new DCI format may be prepared, and the base station 10 may use the new DCI format to indicate the update of the application of a single codeword or a dual codeword for SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH. In this case, the new DCI format may have a new RNTI (Radio Network Temporary Identifier) or may have an existing RNTI instead of a new RNTI.
[0475] (Option 1-2)
[0476] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use the existing DCI format with a new RNTI to indicate the update of the application of the single codeword or the dual codeword for the SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH.
[0477] (Options 1-3)
[0478] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use an existing DCI format with an existing RNTI to indicate an update of the application of a single codeword or a dual codeword for SPS PDSCH / CGPUSCH.
[0479] (Option 1-3A)
[0480] In this case, a new field may be provided, and information indicating the update of the application of the single code word or the double code word may be written in the new field. In addition, the number of the new fields may be plural.
[0481] (Option 1-3B)
[0482] Alternatively, information indicating the update of the application of a single code word or a double code word may be written in an unused field within an existing field. In addition, the number of unused fields may be multiple. In this case, the value of a specific field within the existing unused field is used to indicate whether to reinterpret the DCI format, with the purpose of dynamically updating the application of a single code word or a double code word. The terminal 20 can determine the update of the application of a single code word or a double code word by reinterpreting the DCI format.
[0483] (Option 2) MAC CE-based indication
[0484] The base station 10 may instruct the terminal 20 to update the application of the single codeword or the dual codeword for the SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH through the MAC CE. In this case, the following variants are considered.
[0485] (Option 2-1)
[0486] A new MAC CE may be prepared, and the base station 10 uses the new MAC CE to indicate the update of the application of the single codeword or the dual codeword for the SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0487] (Option 2-2)
[0488] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use an existing MAC CE with a new octet to indicate an update of the application of a single codeword or a dual codeword for the SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH.
[0489] (Option 2-3)
[0490] Alternatively, the base station 10 may use an existing MAC CE with an existing octet to indicate an update of the application of a single codeword or a dual codeword for SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH. In this case, the reserved bit is used to indicate whether the MAC CE is interpreted as an update purpose for a single codeword or a dual codeword.
[0491] (1-2) Range of SPS / CG settings to be updated
[0492] In this application, it is proposed to update the range of SPS / CG settings for single codeword or dual codeword applications.
[0493] (Select 1)
[0494] The scope of application of the dynamically updated single codeword or dual codeword may also be set per SPS / CG based on a DCI / MAC CE.
[0495] In this case, the base station 10 may instruct the terminal 20 to update the application of the single codeword or the double codeword in the SPS / CG setting by using the index representing the SPS / CG setting of the object.
[0496] (Select 1-1)
[0497] The index may also be explicitly indicated to the terminal 20 through a field / bit of the DCI or MAC CE.
[0498] (Select 1-2)
[0499] Alternatively, the index may be implicitly indicated to the terminal 20. For example, when the dynamic update of the parameters of the SPS PDSCH is indicated by the MAC CE, the index of the SPS configuration of the object is the index of the SPS configuration of the SPS PDSCH timing conveying the MAC CE.
[0500] (Select 2)
[0501] The scope of application of the dynamically updated single codeword or dual codeword may also be based on all (activated) SPS / CG settings of a DCI / MAC CE.
[0502] (Choose 2-1)
[0503] In this case, a common indication field / bit may be set for all SPS / CGs.
[0504] (Choose 2-2)
[0505] Alternatively, a separate indication field / bit may be set for all SPS / CGs.
[0506] (Select 3)
[0507] The scope of application of the dynamically updated single codeword or dual codeword may also be a group set for each SPS / CG based on a DCI / MAC CE.
[0508] (Select 3-1A)
[0509] In this case, a common indication field / bit may be set for the group set for SPS / CG.
[0510] (Option 3-1B)
[0511] Alternatively, a separate indication field / bit may be set for the group configured for SPS / CG.
[0512] In this case, the base station 10 may instruct the terminal 20 to dynamically update the application of the single codeword or the dual codeword in the SPS / CG setting by using the index of the group representing the object's SPS / CG setting.
[0513] (Select 3-2A)
[0514] The index may also be explicitly indicated to the terminal 20 through a field / bit of the DCI or MAC CE.
[0515] (Option 3-2B)
[0516] Alternatively, the index may be implicitly indicated to the terminal 20. For example, when the dynamic update of the parameters of the SPS PDSCH is indicated by the MAC CE, the index of the SPS configuration of the object is the index of the SPS configuration of the SPS PDSCH timing conveying the MAC CE.
[0517] (2) Update based on semi-static model
[0518] The following describes an application in which a single codeword or a double codeword is updated based on a semi-static mode.
[0519] (Select 1)
[0520] In option 1, terminal 20 applies a single codeword or a dual codeword based on the index value of the SPS / CG opportunity.
[0521] For example, the terminal 20 may apply a single codeword when the index value N of the SPS / CG opportunity satisfies N mod X1 = {Y1_1, Y1_2, ...}, and may apply a double codeword when N mod X1 = {Y2_1, Y2_2, ...}. Here, N is an integer greater than 1, X1 is an integer greater than 2, and Y1_1, Y1_2, ... and Y2_1, Y2_2, ... are integers greater than 1 and less than (X1-1), and are different numbers.
[0522] In addition, the values of X1, Y1_1, Y1_2, Y2_1, Y2_2, etc. may be predefined in the specification or the like, or may be notified to the terminal 20 through higher layer signaling such as RRC.
[0523] When pre-specified in the specification, a different combination of values may be specified for each XR service. In addition, when notified by higher layer signaling, a different combination of values may be configured for each XR service and / or for each SPS / CG setting.
[0524] (Select 2)
[0525] In option 2, terminal 20 applies a single codeword or a dual codeword based on the index value of the time slot of the SPS / CG opportunity.
[0526] For example, the terminal 20 may apply a single codeword when the index value M of the time slot of the SPS / CG opportunity satisfies M mod X1 = {Y1_1, Y1_2, ...}, and may apply a double codeword when M mod X1 = {Y2_1, Y2_2, ...}. Here, M is an integer greater than 1, X1 is an integer greater than 2, and Y1_1, Y1_2, ... and Y2_1, Y2_2, ... are any integers greater than 0 and less than (X1-1), and are different numbers.
[0527] In addition, the values of X1, Y1_1, Y1_2, Y2_1, Y2_2, etc. may be predefined in the specification or the like, or may be notified to the terminal 20 through higher layer signaling such as RRC.
[0528] When pre-specified in the specification, a different combination of values may be specified for each XR service. In addition, when notified by higher layer signaling, a different combination of values may be configured for each XR service and / or for each SPS / CG setting.
[0529] (3) Impact of the updated HARK-ACK CB
[0530] In the construction of the HARQ-ACK CB of Rel-15 / 16, when the maximum double codeword transmission is valid (on the serving cell), 2TB (two-TB) HARQ-ACK positions are reserved regardless of whether the PDSCH actually scheduled is a single TB (single-TB) transmission or a 2TB (two-TB) transmission. Therefore, there is no need to further consider different operations for the dynamic update of the SPS transmission of single codewords and double codewords. That is, it is considered that the HARQ-ACK CB described in Proposal 5 is most likely to be reused.
[0531] (Effect)
[0532] According to the above-described proposal 6, when either a single codeword or a dual codeword is applied in the SPS PDSCH / CG PUSCH, it is possible to dynamically / adaptively update them. For example, when a single codeword is applied, it is possible to dynamically switch to the application of a dual codeword in accordance with the instruction of the base station 10. In addition, it is also possible to adaptively switch and apply a single codeword and a dual codeword in accordance with a pre-set semi-static mode.
[0533] (Variant)
[0534] In addition, the above description shows that any one of a plurality of options is applied to one setting. For example, which of a plurality of options is applied and / or which of a plurality of options is applied can be determined by the following method.
[0535] ·Set by high-level parameters.
[0536] UE reports as UE capability(ies).
[0537] ·Recorded in the specification book.
[0538] Determined based on higher layer parameter settings and reported UE capabilities.
[0539] Determined by a combination of two or more of the above determinations.
[0540] In addition, the so-called high-level parameters may be RRC parameters, MAC CE (Media Access Control Control Element), or a combination thereof.
[0541] In addition, the terminal is capable of not assuming that CBG-based SPS transmission and two-codeword SPS transmission are valid at the same time. In other words, the terminal may not assume that the other is valid when one of CBG-based SPS transmission and two-codeword SPS transmission is valid. In addition, the terminal may also assume that CBG-based SPS transmission and two-codeword SPS transmission are valid at the same time.
[0542] In addition, the terminal may not assume that CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission and dual-codeword CG PUSCH transmission are valid at the same time. In other words, the terminal may not assume that the other is valid when one of CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission and dual-codeword CG PUSCH transmission is valid. In addition, the terminal may also assume that CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission and dual-codeword CG PUSCH transmission are valid at the same time.
[0543] In addition, CBG-based SPS transmission and dual-codeword SPS transmission can also be supported simultaneously. The number of HARQ-ACK bits for SPS PDSCH when dual-codeword SPS transmission (two codeword SPS transmission) and CBG-based transmission are activated at the same time can be 2×M. Here, M can be determined in the same way as M, the number of HARQ-ACK bits shown in Proposal 2 above. Alternatively, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for SPS PDSCH when dual-codeword SPS transmission and CBG-based transmission are activated at the same time can also be determined based on the number of HARQ-ACK bits for CBG-based transmission shown in Proposal 2 and the number of HARQ-ACK bits for dual-codeword SPS transmission shown in Proposal 5.
[0544] In addition, it can also support CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission and dual-codeword CG PUSCH transmission at the same time.
[0545] UE capability
[0546] The UE capability indicating the capability of the UE may include the following information indicating the capability of the UE. In addition, the information indicating the capability of the UE may be equivalent to the information defining the capability of the UE. In addition, a UE capability indicating one of the following items may be notified, or a UE capability indicating multiple items may be notified.
[0547] Information defining whether the UE supports CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission.
[0548] Information defining whether the UE supports CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission.
[0549] Information defining whether the UE supports dual codeword SPS PDSCH transmission.
[0550] Information defining whether the UE supports dual codeword CG PUSCH transmission.
[0551] Defines whether the UE supports information enabling CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission and dual-codeword SPS PDSCH transmission simultaneously.
[0552] Defines whether the UE supports information enabling simultaneous validity of CBG-based CG PUSCH transmission and dual-codeword CG PUSCH transmission.
[0553] The above is an explanation of the present disclosure. In addition, the division of items in the above description is not essential in the present disclosure, and matters recorded in two or more items can be used in combination as needed, and matters recorded in one item can also be applied to matters recorded in another item (as long as there is no contradiction).
[0554] <Hardware structure, etc.>
[0555] In addition, the block diagram used in the description of the above-mentioned embodiment shows a block of a functional unit. These functional blocks (structural units) are implemented by any combination of at least one of hardware and software. In addition, the implementation method of each functional block is not particularly limited. That is, each functional block can be implemented using a device that is physically or logically combined, or two or more devices that are physically or logically separated can be directly or indirectly (for example, using wired, wireless, etc.) connected and implemented using these multiple devices. The functional block can also be implemented by combining the above-mentioned one device or the above-mentioned multiple devices with software.

For example, a functional block (structural unit) that implements a sending function is called a transmitting unit or a transmitter. Any one of them is as described above, and the implementation method is not particularly limited.
[0557] For example, a base station, a terminal, etc. in one embodiment of the present disclosure may also function as a computer that performs processing of the wireless communication method of the present disclosure.

[0640] According to the above structure, depending on whether the transmission method of the transmission signal transmitted based on semi-static scheduling (e.g., SPS) is a method of applying CBG or a method of applying TB, a confirmation response (e.g., HARQ-ACKCB) can be constructed in an appropriate form, so that HARQ-ACK feedback and retransmission control based on HARQ-ACK can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency. In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, examples of the transmission method of the transmission signal are a method of applying CBG and a method of applying TB, but the present disclosure is not limited to this.
[0641] In one embodiment, the control unit may also generate the confirmation response in a form that is distinguished according to the cell using the transmission method. According to this embodiment, on the basis of classifying the service cell into a cell that performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission and a cell that performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission, in the HARQ-ACK CB, the HARQ-ACK CB can be constructed in the form of the HARQ-ACK corresponding to each of the classified cells. Thus, HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0642] In one embodiment, the confirmation response may also have a form that is distinguished as a first cell that uses the first transmission method but not the second transmission method among the transmission methods, and a second cell that does not use the first transmission method but uses the second transmission method. According to this embodiment, on the basis of classifying the service cell into a cell that only performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission (for example, a cell that performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission but not CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission) and a cell that only performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission (for example, a cell that does not perform TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission but performs CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission), in the HARQ-ACK CB, the HARQ-ACK CB can be constructed in the form of the HARQ-ACK corresponding to each of the classified cells. As a result, HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0643] In one embodiment, the confirmation response may also have the form of a third cell that is distinguished as using the first transmission method but not the second transmission method, and a fourth cell that uses at least one of the first transmission method and the second transmission method. According to this embodiment, on the basis of classifying the service cell into a cell that only performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission (for example, a cell that performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission but not CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission) and a cell that is not such a cell (for example, a cell that performs TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission and CBG-based SPS PDSCH transmission), in the HARQ-ACK CB, the HARQ-ACK CB can be constructed in the form of the HARQ-ACK corresponding to each of the distinguished and classified cells. As a result, HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0644] In addition, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a base station is provided, comprising: a receiving unit that receives a confirmation response to a transmission signal sent based on semi-static scheduling, the confirmation response having a form corresponding to the transmission method of the transmission signal; and a control unit that controls retransmission based on the confirmation response.
[0645] According to the above structure, depending on whether the transmission method of the transmission signal sent based on semi-static scheduling is the CBG method or the TB method, a confirmation response can be constructed in an appropriate form, so HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0646] Furthermore, according to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a wireless communication method for generating an acknowledgment response to a transmission signal transmitted based on semi-persistent scheduling in a format corresponding to the transmission method of the transmission signal, and transmitting the acknowledgment response.
[0647] According to the above structure, depending on whether the transmission method of the transmission signal sent based on semi-static scheduling is the CBG method or the TB method, a confirmation response can be constructed in an appropriate form, so HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0648] According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a terminal is provided, comprising: a control unit that generates an acknowledgment response for a transmission signal transmitted based on semi-persistent scheduling in a format corresponding to the number of transport blocks of the transmission signal; and a transmission unit that transmits the acknowledgment response.
[0649] According to the above structure, a confirmation response (e.g., HARQ-ACK CB) can be constructed in an appropriate form according to the number of transport blocks (TB) of the transmission signal sent based on semi-static scheduling (e.g., SPS), so that HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0650] In one embodiment, the control unit may also generate the confirmation response in a form that is distinguished according to the number of cells using the transport block. According to this embodiment, on the basis of classifying the service cells according to the number of TBs used, in the HARQ-ACK CB, the HARQ-ACK CB can be constructed in the form of HARQ-ACK corresponding to each of the classified cells. Thus, HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency. In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the number of TBs is 1 or 2, but the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the number of TBs may also be 3 or more.
[0651] In one embodiment, the confirmation response may also have a form that is distinguished into a first cell using the number of first transmission blocks and a second cell using the number of second transmission blocks different from the number of the first transmission blocks. According to this embodiment, on the basis of classifying the service cells into cells using one TB (for example, cells performing 1TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission) and cells using two TBs (for example, cells performing 2TB-based SPS PDSCH transmission), in the HARQ-ACK CB, the HARQ-ACK CB can be constructed in the form of HARQ-ACK corresponding to each of the distinguished and classified cells. As a result, HARQ-ACK feedback and HARQ-ACK-based retransmission control can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0652] In one embodiment, the size of the confirmation response of the transmission signal for the number of the first transmission blocks in the transmission method may also be less than the size of the confirmation response of the transmission signal for the number of the second transmission blocks. According to this embodiment, for the serving cell, the size of the HARQ-ACK for the 1TB based SPS PDSCH (1TB based SPS PDSCH) using one TB is adjusted to be smaller than the size of the HARQ-ACK for the 2TB based SPS PDSCH (2TB based SPS PDSCH) using two TBs, so in the HARQ-ACK CB, the HARQ-ACK CB can be constructed according to the size of the data being transmitted. As a result, the feedback of the HARQ-ACK corresponding to the size of the data being transmitted can be appropriately performed, thereby improving the communication efficiency.
[0653] In addition, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a base station is provided, comprising: a receiving unit, which receives a confirmation response to a transmission signal sent based on semi-static scheduling, the confirmation response having a form corresponding to the number of transmission blocks of the transmission signal; and a control unit, which controls retransmission based on the confirmation response.
[0654] According to the above structure, the confirmation response can be constructed in an appropriate form according to the number of transport blocks of the transmission signal sent based on semi-static scheduling, so HARQ-ACK feedback and retransmission control based on HARQ-ACK can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.
[0655] Furthermore, according to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a wireless communication method for generating an acknowledgment response to a transmission signal transmitted based on semi-persistent scheduling in a format corresponding to the number of transport blocks of the transmission signal, and transmitting the acknowledgment response.
[0656] According to the above structure, the confirmation response can be constructed in an appropriate form according to the number of transport blocks of the transmission signal sent based on semi-static scheduling, so HARQ-ACK feedback and retransmission control based on HARQ-ACK can be appropriately performed, thereby improving communication efficiency.

"Determining" and "determining" may include, for example, judging, calculating, computing, processing, deriving, investigating, looking up (for example, searching in a table, database or other data structure), ascertaining, etc. as being considered as "determining" and "determining". In addition, "determining" and "determining" may include receiving (for example, receiving information), transmitting (for example, transmitting information), inputting, outputting, accessing (for example, accessing data in a memory) as being considered as "determining" and "determining". In addition, "determining" and "determining" may include resolving, selecting, choosing, establishing, comparing, etc. as being considered as "determining" and "determining". That is, "judgment" and "decision" can include situations where some actions are considered to be "judged" and "decided". In addition, "judgment (decision)" can also be rewritten as "assuming", "expecting", "considering", etc.
[0659] The terms "connected", "coupled", or all variations thereof, mean all direct or indirect connections or combinations between two or more elements, and can include the situation where there is one or more intermediate elements between two elements that are "connected" or "coupled" to each other. The combination or connection between elements can be physical, logical, or a combination thereof. For example, "connection" can also be rewritten as "access". In the context of use in the present disclosure, it is possible to consider two elements being "connected" or "coupled" to each other using at least one of one or more wires, cables, and printed electrical connections, as well as electromagnetic energy having wavelengths in the wireless frequency domain, microwave region, and light (both visible and invisible) region, as several non-limiting and non-inclusive examples.
[0660] <Reference signal>
[0661] The reference signal may also be referred to as RS (Reference Signal), or may be referred to as a pilot depending on the applied standard.
[0662] <Meaning of “based on”>
[0663] The term “based on” as used in the present disclosure does not mean “based only on” unless otherwise specified. In other words, the term “based on” means both “based only on” and “based at least on”.
[0664] <“First”, “Second”>
[0665] Any reference to an element using the terms "first", "second", etc. used in this disclosure does not fully define the amount or order of these elements. These terms can be used in this disclosure as a convenient method to distinguish between two or more elements. Therefore, reference to the first and second elements does not mean that only two elements can be used or that the first element must take precedence over the second element in some form.
[0666] <Unit>
[0667] The “unit” in the configuration of each of the above-mentioned devices may be replaced with a “section”, “circuit”, “device” or the like.
[0668] <Open type>
[0669] In the present disclosure, when the terms "include", "including", and variations thereof are used, these terms, like the term "comprising", have an inclusive meaning. Furthermore, the term "or" used in the present disclosure does not mean an exclusive OR.
[0670] <Time units such as TTI, frequency units such as RB, and radio frame structure>
[0671] A radio frame may also be composed of one or more frames in the time domain. One or more frames in the time domain may also be referred to as subframes. Further, a subframe may also be composed of one or more time slots in the time domain. A subframe may also be a fixed time length (e.g., 1 ms) that is not dependent on a parameter set (numerology).
[0672] The parameter set may also be a communication parameter applied in at least one of the transmission and reception of a certain signal or channel. For example, the parameter set may also represent at least one of subcarrier spacing (SCS), bandwidth, symbol length, cyclic prefix length, transmission time interval (TTI), the number of symbols per TTI, wireless frame structure, specific filter processing performed by the transmitter and receiver in the frequency domain, specific windowing processing performed by the transmitter and receiver in the time domain, etc.
[0673] A time slot may also be composed of one or more symbols (OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)) symbols, SC-FDMA (Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access)) symbols, etc.) in the time domain. A time slot may also be a time unit based on a parameter set.
[0674] A time slot may also include multiple mini-slots. Each mini-slot may also be composed of one or more symbols in the time domain. In addition, a mini-slot may also be referred to as a sub-slot. A mini-slot may also be composed of fewer symbols than a time slot. A PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted in a time unit larger than a mini-slot may also be referred to as a PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type A. A PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted using a mini-slot may also be referred to as a PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type B.
[0675] Radio frames, subframes, time slots, mini-time slots and symbols all represent time units for transmitting signals. Radio frames, subframes, time slots, mini-time slots and symbols may also be referred to by other corresponding names.
[0676] For example, a subframe may also be referred to as a transmission time interval (TTI), a plurality of consecutive subframes may also be referred to as a TTI, and a time slot or a mini time slot may also be referred to as a TTI. That is, at least one of a subframe and a TTI may be a subframe (1 ms) in existing LTE, a period shorter than 1 ms (e.g., 1-13 symbols), or a period longer than 1 ms. In addition, a unit representing a TTI may also be referred to as a time slot, a mini time slot, etc. instead of a subframe.
[0677] Here, TTI refers to, for example, the minimum time unit for scheduling in wireless communication. For example, in the LTE system, the base station schedules each user terminal to allocate wireless resources (frequency bandwidth, transmission power, etc. that can be used in each user terminal) in TTI units. In addition, the definition of TTI is not limited to this.
[0678] TTI can also be a transmission time unit for a data packet (transport block), code block, code word, etc. that has been channel-coded, and can also be a processing unit for scheduling, link adaptation, etc. In addition, when TTI is given, the time interval (e.g., the number of symbols) to which a transport block, code block, code word, etc. is actually mapped can also be shorter than the TTI.
[0679] In addition, when a time slot or a mini time slot is called TTI, more than one TTI (i.e., more than one time slot or more than one mini time slot) can also be the minimum time unit of scheduling. In addition, the number of time slots (number of mini time slots) constituting the minimum time unit of scheduling can also be controlled.
[0680] A TTI having a time length of 1 ms may also be referred to as a normal TTI (TTI in LTE Rel.8-12), a standard TTI, a long TTI, a normal subframe, a standard subframe, a long subframe, a time slot, etc. A TTI shorter than a normal TTI may also be referred to as a shortened TTI, a short TTI, a partial TTI (partial or fractional TTI), a shortened subframe, a short subframe, a mini time slot, a sub time slot, a time slot, etc.
[0681] In addition, a long TTI (e.g., normal TTI, subframe, etc.) can also be rewritten as a TTI with a time length exceeding 1 ms, and a short TTI (e.g., shortened TTI, etc.) can also be rewritten as a TTI with a TTI length shorter than that of the long TTI and longer than 1 ms.
[0682] A resource block (RB) is a resource allocation unit in the time domain and the frequency domain, and may include one or more consecutive subcarriers (subcarriers) in the frequency domain. The number of subcarriers included in an RB may also be the same regardless of the parameter set, for example, 12. The number of subcarriers included in an RB may also be determined based on the parameter set.
[0683] In addition, the time domain of an RB may also include one or more symbols, and may also be the length of a time slot, a mini-time slot, a subframe, or a TTI. A TTI, a subframe, etc. may also be composed of one or more resource blocks, respectively.
[0684] In addition, one or more RBs may also be referred to as a physical resource block (PRB: Physical RB), a sub-carrier group (SCG: Sub-Carrier Group), a resource element group (REG: Resource Element Group), a PRB pair, an RB pair, etc.
[0685] In addition, a resource block may be composed of one or more resource elements (REs). For example, one RE may be a radio resource region of one subcarrier and one symbol.
[0686] A bandwidth part (BWP) (also referred to as a partial bandwidth, etc.) may also represent a subset of contiguous common RBs (common resource blocks) for a parameter set in a certain carrier. Here, the common RBs may also be identified by the index of the RBs based on the common reference point of the carrier. PRBs may also be defined in a BWP and numbered within the BWP.
[0687] The BWP may include a BWP for UL (UL BWP) and a BWP for DL (DL BWP). One or more BWPs may be configured for a UE in one carrier.
[0688] At least one of the set BWPs may be activated, and the UE may not assume that it will transmit or receive a specific signal / channel other than the activated BWP. In addition, "cell", "carrier", etc. in the present disclosure may also be rewritten as "BWP".
[0689] The above structures of radio frames, subframes, time slots, mini-time slots, and symbols are merely examples. For example, the number of subframes included in a radio frame, the number of time slots in each subframe or radio frame, the number of mini-time slots included in a time slot, the number of symbols and RBs included in a time slot or mini-time slot, the number of subcarriers included in an RB, the number of symbols in a TTI, the symbol length, and the cyclic prefix (CP) length can be changed in various ways.
[0690] <Maximum transmission power>
[0691] The “maximum transmit power” recorded in the present disclosure may refer to the maximum value of the transmit power, the nominal maximum transmit power (the nominal UE maximum transmit power), or the rated maximum transmit power (the rated UE maximum transmit power).
[0692] <Article>
[0693] In the present disclosure, when an article is added by translation like a, an, and the in English, for example, the present disclosure may also include a case where the noun following the article is in plural form.
[0694] <“Different”>
[0695] In the present disclosure, the term "A is different from B" may also mean "A and B are different from each other". In addition, the term may also mean "A and B are different from C, respectively". The terms "separate" and "combined" may also be interpreted in the same way as "different".
