Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a terminal and a communication method. [Background technology]

[0002] The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP (registered trademark)) has developed specifications for the 5th generation mobile communication system (5G, also known as New Radio (NR) or Next Generation 10 (NNG)), and is also developing specifications for the next generation mobile communication system known as Beyond 5G, 5G Evolution, or 6G.

[0003] Release 18 discusses an extension of the duplexing scheme that allows simultaneous use of the downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) by utilizing multiple subbands that make up the time division duplexing (TDD) band. This extended duplexing scheme is called subband non-overlapping full duplex (SBFD).

[0004] The introduction of SBFD and dynamic / flexible TDD has made it possible to simultaneously transmit DL / UL from a base station (hereinafter also referred to as gNodeB (gNB)) / terminal (hereinafter also referred to as user equipment (UE)).

[0005] On the other hand, the expansion of duplexing methods has led to the occurrence of cross-link interference (CLI), which also occurs in dynamic TDD where the timing of DL and UL transmissions differs for each cell.

[0006] In these communication methods, in order to counter CLI, the terminal performs CLI measurement and reports the results of L1 (Layer 1)-based CLI measurement (hereinafter referred to as "L1-CLI report") to the base station. [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

[0008] However, there is room for further discussion on a specific scheme for L1-CLI reporting.

[0009] One aspect of the present disclosure provides a terminal and a communication method that can appropriately transmit an L1-CLI report.

[0010] A terminal according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a receiving unit that receives a downlink signal including a parameter indicating a resource for reporting a result of a measurement for crosslink interference, and a control unit that performs a measurement for crosslink interference in a physical layer and sets a resource for reporting a result of the measurement for crosslink interference based on the parameter, and identification information that identifies configuration information related to measurement of channel conditions includes a list of identifiers of resource sets for the measurement for crosslink interference and / or measurement of reception quality of the physical layer.

[0012] Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the same or similar reference numerals are used to designate the same functions or configurations, and descriptions thereof will be omitted as appropriate.

[0013] (1) Wireless communication system configuration 1 is a wireless communication system conforming to a scheme called 5G. Alternatively, the wireless communication system 10 may be a wireless communication system conforming to a scheme called Beyond 5G, 5G Evolution, or 6G.

[0014] The wireless communication system 10 can support Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (Massive MIMO), which generates more directional beams by controlling wireless signals transmitted from multiple antenna elements, Carrier Aggregation (CA), which uses multiple component carriers (CCs) as a bundle, and Dual Connectivity (DC), which communicates simultaneously with two base stations.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, a wireless communication system 10 includes a base station 100 (hereinafter also referred to as a gNodeB (gNB) 100) constituting a Next Generation-Radio Access Network (NG-RAN) 20, and a terminal 200 (hereinafter also referred to as a user equipment (UE) 200) that performs wireless communication with the gNB 100. The NG-RAN 20 is connected to a core network (CN) (not shown). The CN is composed of multiple network functions (NFs). The NFs are, for example, an access and mobility management function (AMF) and a network data analytics function (NWDAF). The AMF performs, for example, registration of the UE 200. The NWDAF performs, for example, optimization of the CN. Note that the specific configuration of the wireless communication system 10, for example, the number of gNBs 100 and UEs 200, is not limited to the example shown in FIG. 1. The NG-RAN 20 and the CN may be simply referred to as a "network."

[0016] The gNB100 may be a base station in a Centralized-Radio Access Network (C-RAN) configuration having a distributed unit (DU) having a function for connecting to the UE200 and a central unit (CU) having a function for connecting to the network. In this case, the gNB100 may be read as a DU, a CU, or a DU and a CU. When read as a DU, the gNB100 may be called a gNB-DU. When read as a CU, the gNB100 may be called a gNB-CU. When read as a DU and a CU, the DU portion may be called a gNB-DU and the CU portion may be called a gNB-CU.

[0017] Furthermore, the wireless communication system 10 may support a plurality of frequency ranges (FRs). That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the wireless communication system 10 may support the following FRs: FR1: 410MHz~7.125GHz FR2-1: 24.25GHz~52.6GHz ·FR2-2: More than 52.6GHz~71GHz

[0018] In FR1, a subcarrier spacing (SCS) of 15, 30, or 60 kHz and a bandwidth (BW) of 5 to 100 MHz may be used, and in FR2-1, an SCS of 60 or 120 kHz (or 240 kHz) and a BW of 50 to 400 MHz may be used.

[0019] Note that the SCS may be interpreted as a numerology, which is defined in 3GPP TS 38.300 and corresponds to one subcarrier spacing in the frequency domain.

[0020] In FR2-2, to avoid an increase in phase noise, Cyclic Prefix-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (CP-OFDM) or Discrete Fourier Transform-Spread-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM) with a larger SCS may be applied.

[0021] Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a radio frame (system frame), subframe, and slot used in the radio communication system 10. As shown in Fig. 3, one slot is made up of 14 symbols, and the larger (wider) the SCS, the shorter the symbol period (and slot period). However, the SCS is not limited to the interval (frequency) shown in Fig. 3. For example, 480 kHz, 960 kHz, etc. may be used as the SCS.

[0022] Furthermore, the number of symbols constituting one slot does not necessarily have to be 14 (for example, it may be 28 or 56 symbols, etc.) Furthermore, the number of slots per subframe may differ depending on the SCS.

[0023] The time direction (t) shown in Fig. 3 may be called a time domain, a symbol period, a symbol time, etc. The frequency direction may be called a frequency domain, a resource block, a subcarrier, a bandwidth part (BWP), etc.

[0024] The wireless communication system 10 may support coverage enhancement (CE) that expands the coverage of a cell (or a physical channel) formed by the gNB 100. In coverage enhancement, a mechanism for increasing the success rate of reception of various physical channels, such as repeated transmission (repetition) of a physical random access channel (PRACH), may be provided.

[0025] For example, UE200 receives information related to the random access procedure from gNB100 as a downlink (DL) signal (e.g., SIB1 (System Information Block Type 1) etc.).

[0026] Furthermore, for example, the UE 200 transmits a PRACH as an UL signal to the gNB 100 using a RACH occasion (RO), which is a resource for transmitting a random access preamble. For example, the UE 200 repeatedly transmits the PRACH as an UL signal to the gNB 100.

[0027] The UL signal may include, for example, a UL data signal and control information. For example, the UL signal may include information related to the processing capability of the UE 200 (e.g., UE capability). The UL signal may also include a reference signal.

[0028] Channels used for transmitting UL signals include, for example, data channels and control channels. For example, the data channels may include a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), and the control channels may include a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH). For example, the UE 200 transmits control information using the PUCCH and transmits UL data signals using the PUSCH. Note that the PUSCH is an example of an uplink shared channel, and the PUCCH is an example of an uplink control channel. The shared channels may also be called data channels.

[0029] The reference signal included in the UL signal may include at least one of a DMRS (Demodulation Reference Signal), a PTRS (Phase Tracking Reference Signal), a CSI-RS (Channel State Information - Reference Signal), an SRS (Sounding Reference Signal), and a PRS (Positioning Reference Signal) for positioning information. For example, reference signals such as the DMRS and PTRS are used to demodulate the UL data signal and are transmitted using the PUSCH.

[0030] Meanwhile, in response to the operation of UE200, gNB100 transmits information related to the RACH procedure to UE200 as a DL signal (e.g., SIB1, etc.).

[0031] Furthermore, for example, the gNB 100 receives, as an UL signal, a PRACH from the UE 200. For example, the gNB 100 repeatedly receives, as an UL signal, a PRACH from the UE 200.

[0032] Channels used for transmitting DL signals include, for example, data channels and control channels. For example, the data channel may include a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and the control channel may include a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). For example, the gNB 100 transmits control information to the UE 200 using the PDCCH, and transmits DL data signals using the PDSCH. Note that the PDSCH is an example of a downlink shared channel, and the PDCCH is an example of a downlink control channel. Note that the PDCCH may be interpreted as downlink control information (DCI), control information, etc. transmitted in the PDCCH.

[0033] The reference signal included in the DL signal may include, for example, at least one of DMRS, PTRS, CSI-RS, SRSRS, and PRS for location information. For example, the reference signal such as DMRS or PTRS is used for demodulating the DL data signal and is transmitted using the PDSCH.

[0034] Here, the UE 200 performs measurements related to reception quality in the physical layer. The measurements related to reception quality in the physical layer may be referred to as L1 measurements. The reception quality in the physical layer may include L1-SRS-RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) and L1-CLI-RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator).

[0035] Furthermore, the UE 200 reports measurement results regarding reception quality in the physical layer to the gNB 100. This report may be referred to as L1 reporting. Furthermore, the reception quality in the physical layer may include L1-SRS-RSRP and L1-CLI-RSSI.

[0036] The L1-SRS-RSRP may be a linear average of the power ([W]) of the resource elements carrying the SRS. The measurement time resource of the linear average may be configured by a higher layer (RRC message).

[0037] The L1-CLI-RSSI may be a linear average of the observed total received power ([W]). The measurement time resource for the linear average may be configured by higher layers (RRC messages).

[0038] The definitions of L1-SRS-RSRP and L1-CLI-RSSI may be newly introduced. The definitions of L1-SRS-RSRP and L1-CLI-RSSI may be the same as the existing definitions of SRS-RSRP / CLI-RSSI, or may be updated definitions of the existing SRS-RSRP / CLI-RSSI. The existing SRS-RSRP / CLI-RSSI may be defined in TR38.215 §5.1.19 / §5.1.20.

[0039] (SBFD operation) Considering the time ratio of transmission and reception (e.g., DL:UL = 4:1) using Time Division Duplex (TDD) up to Release 16, there may be cases where the number of transmission opportunities for UL signals / channels is fewer than the number of reception opportunities for DL ​​signals / channels. In such cases, UE 200 cannot transmit UL signals / channels frequently, which raises concerns about transmission delays of important UL signals / channels. Furthermore, since there are fewer UL transmission opportunities compared to DL reception opportunities, there is also concern about signal / channel congestion during UL transmission opportunities. Furthermore, with TDD, the time resources available for transmitting UL signals / channels are limited, which limits the application of UL coverage extension techniques, such as repetition transmission.

[0040] In future wireless communication systems (for example, Release 18 and later), the introduction of a time-frequency division duplexing method that combines TDD and frequency division duplexing (FDD) for both UL and DL is being considered.

[0041] Examples of the time-frequency division duplexing method include XDD (Cross Division Duplex) and Subband-non-overlapping Full Duplex (SBFD). XDD or SBFD may refer to a duplexing method that frequency-division multiplexes DL and UL within one component carrier (CC) in the TDD band (allowing DL and UL to be used simultaneously).

[0042] Fig. 4A is a diagram showing an example of TDD configuration defined up to Release 16. In the example shown in Fig. 4A, TDD slots or symbols are configured for a UE in a bandwidth such as one component carrier (CC) (which may also be called a cell or serving cell) or bandwidth portion (BWP).

[0043] In the example shown in Figure 4A, the time ratio of DL slots to UL slots is 4:1. This conventional TDD slot or symbol configuration does not ensure sufficient UL time resources, which can result in UL transmission delays and reduced coverage performance.

[0044] Fig. 4B is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of SBFD. In the example shown in Fig. 4B, within one component carrier (CC), resources used for DL ​​reception and resources used for UL transmission overlap in time. With such a resource configuration, more UL resources can be secured, thereby improving resource utilization efficiency.

[0045] For example, as shown in the example of Figure 4B, both ends of the frequency domain may be set as DL resources, and these DL resources may sandwich UL resources. This may prevent or mitigate cross link interference (CLI) with neighboring carriers. Also, a guard region may be set at the boundary between the DL resources and the UL resources.

[0046] Considering the complexity of handling self-interference, it may be considered that only the base station 100 uses the DL resource and the UL resource simultaneously. That is, in radio resources where the DL and UL overlap in time, one UE 200 may use the DL resource and another UE 200 may use the UL resource.

[0047] Fig. 5 is a diagram showing an example of SBFD operation. In the example shown in Fig. 5, part of the DL resources of the TDD band is set as the UL resources, and the DL and UL are configured to partially overlap in the time domain.

[0048] In the example shown in FIG. 5, during the DL-only period, each of the multiple UEs 200 (UE#1 and UE#2 in FIG. 5) receives the DL channel / signal.

[0049] Furthermore, during a period in which DL and UL overlap in time, one UE 200 (UE#1 in the example of FIG. 5) receives a DL channel / signal, and another UE 200 (UE#2 in the example of FIG. 5) transmits a UL channel / signal. During this period, base station 100 performs simultaneous transmission and reception of DL and UL.

[0050] Furthermore, during the UL-only period, each of the multiple UEs 200 (UE#1 and UE#2 in FIG. 5) transmits a UL channel / signal.

[0051] In existing NR (e.g., those specified up to Release 15 / 16 / 17), the DL frequency resource and the UL frequency resource of a UE carrier are configured as DL BWP and UL BWP, respectively. To switch DL / UL frequency resources to other DL / UL frequency resources, multiple BWP configurations and a BWP adaptation mechanism are required.

[0052] Figure 6A is a diagram showing an example of an existing TDD configuration. In Figure 6A, slots / symbols marked with "D" are DL slots / symbols, slots / symbols marked with "U" are UL slots / symbols, and slots / symbols marked with "F" are flexible (hereinafter also referred to as FL) slots / symbols. Note that similar notations may be used in the following figures.

[0053] In the existing NR, as shown in FIG. 6A, time resources (time units such as symbols and slots) in the TDD carrier for UE 200 are configured as at least one of DL, UL, and flexible (FL) in the TDD configuration.

[0054] Figure 6B is a diagram showing an example of an existing TDD configuration. In Figure 6B, slots / symbols or subbands marked with "D" are DL slots / symbols or DL ​​subbands, and slots / symbols or subbands marked with "U" are UL slots / symbols or UL subbands. Note that similar notations may be used in the following figures.

[0055] As shown in FIG. 6B , the SBFD symbol may be a symbol that is signaled or configured as UL (or DL) or for UL transmission (or DL ​​reception) on some frequency resources (subbands), and signaled or configured as DL (or UL) or for DL ​​reception (or UL transmission) on other frequency resources (subbands). Alternatively, the SBFD symbol may be a symbol that is signaled or configured as UL (or DL) or for UL transmission (or DL ​​reception) on a portion of frequency resources. Alternatively, the SBFD symbol may be a symbol that is signaled or configured as DL (or UL) or for DL ​​reception (or UL transmission) on a portion of frequency resources.

[0056] Here, the time unit may be at the symbol level, slot / subslot level, or a group of symbols / slots / subslots, i.e., the SBFD time unit may be an SBFD symbol, a slot / subslot containing or overlapping an SBFD symbol, or a group of symbols / slots / subslots containing or overlapping an SBFD symbol.

[0057] A pure time unit may be a non-SBFD symbol (i.e., a symbol that is not an SBFD symbol, also referred to as a non-SBFD symbol), a slot / subslot that does not contain or overlap an SBFD symbol, or a group of symbols / slots / subslots that do not contain or overlap an SBFD symbol, and may also be referred to as a non-SBFD time unit. For example, a pure time unit may be referred to as a time unit consisting only of DL on frequency resources as shown in Figure 7A, or as a time unit consisting only of UL on frequency resources as shown in Figure 7B.

[0058] Furthermore, for an SBFD time unit, DL resources and UL resources may have various allocation patterns in the frequency domain. For example, an SBFD time unit of frequency domain pattern #1 may have an allocation pattern as shown in FIG. 7C. An SBFD time unit of frequency domain pattern #2 may have an allocation pattern as shown in FIG. 7D. An SBFD time unit of frequency domain pattern #3 may have an allocation pattern as shown in FIG. 7E. These allocation patterns are merely exemplary, and other allocation patterns may also be used. The frequency domain pattern of an SBFD time unit may refer to a resource repetition pattern in the frequency domain for the SBFD time unit.

[0059] As described above, SBFD may be applied to each slot / symbol. Note that each slot / symbol may be set to DL, UL, or Flexible (FL) that can be used as DL or UL, and then SBFD may be applied.

[0060] SBFD is a type of (full-duplex) duplexing scheme based on time division duplexing (TDD), enabling simultaneous use of multiple sub-bands that make up the TDD band. SBFD can be described as a duplexing scheme in which multiple sub-bands are specified within the TDD band, a duplexing scheme in which UL and DL are allocated non-overlapping in the frequency direction within the TDD time unit, or full-duplex duplexing of sub-bands.

[0061] A symbol to which SBFD is applied is also called an SBFD symbol. "SBFD is applied" may be interpreted as SBFD being applied to at least a part of scheduling. In other words, a "symbol to which SBFD is applied" may be interpreted as a symbol to which SBFD is applied (SBFD symbol) in scheduling to which SBFD is applied. Also, a "time unit to which non-SBFD is applied" may be interpreted as a symbol to which SBFD is not applied (non-SBFD symbol) in scheduling to which SBFD is applied.

[0062] Hereinafter, terms related to SBFD will be described. · SBFD DL symbol: A symbol indicated for DL by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon and / or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated, and is a symbol in which an SBFD sub-band is set · SBFD FL symbol: A symbol indicated for FL by tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon and / or tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated, and is a symbol in which an SBFD sub-band is set · SBFD SSB symbol: A symbol set for SSB reception, and is a symbol in which an SBFD sub-band is set · Non-SBFD symbol: A symbol in which an SBFD sub-band is not set, and / or a symbol in which SBFD operation is not performed on the gNB side

[0063] <Extension of CLI Handling> In the RAN#104 meeting, the extension of CLI handling was updated as follows. · Specific extension functions for CLI handling [RAN1, RAN2, RAN3, RAN4] · Muting of UL resources of PUSCH including [RAN1, RAN2, RAN4] · Assuming comb-2 for both DFT-S-OFDM and CP-OFDM of each allocated PRB and assuming a maximum of 2 symbols in the time domain, indication / decision of muting of UL resources of PUSCH based on a quasi-static setting · PUSCH resource mapping, that is, rate matching around muted REs · Determination of UCI resources in symbols having muted REs · L1-based inter-UE CLI measurement and reporting based on the existing CSI (Channel State Information) framework including [RAN1, RAN2, RAN4] - Setting / Determining "type D" QCL assumptions for CLI measurement resources At least occasional reporting New reporting quantities, e.g., L1-SRS-RSRP, L1-CLI-RSSI and / or measurement resource index UCI bit generation Priority rules for multiple CSI (Channel State Information) reporting CLI measurement accuracy requirements *Note: There will be no dedicated optimizations for dynamic / flexible TDD.

[0064] <Agreement> At the RAN#118 meeting, the following agreements were reached:

[0065] (Agreement details 1) Regarding UE-to-UE CLI measurement and reporting, CLI measurement is performed within the active DL BWP and the following is supported: Method #1: The UE measures the RSSI in the DL subband. Method #2: The UE measures the RSRP of the aggressor UE in the UL subband. Method #3: The UE measures RSSI in the UL subband. However, Method #3 is undefined.

[0066] (Agreement details 2) For frequency resource allocation, the following is supported: Measurement resource type 1: One CLI-RSSI measurement resource is configured in the DL subband. Measurement resource type 2: One CLI-RSSI measurement resource is configured across two DL subbands.

[0067] The number of configurable resources and the UE behavior for measurements have not yet been determined.

[0073] (RRC information elements) The configuration of RRC information elements such as CSI report config (CSI-ReportConfig), CSI resource config (CSI-ResourceConfig), R16 CLI measurement resource config (MeasObjectCLI-r16), AP CSI report triggering (CSI-AperiodicTriggerStateList), and SP CSI report triggering (CSI-SemiPersistentOnPUSCH-TriggerStateList) is disclosed in Non-Patent Document 3.

[0074] The CSI report config is a configuration related to reporting CSI feedback. Multiple CSI report configs can be set. The CSI-ResourceConfigId in the CSI report config is an identifier indicating the resource used when performing measurements.

[0075] The CSI resource config is a configuration for setting CSI resources, called by the CSI-ResourceconfigId in the CSI report config. The csi-RS-ResourceSetList in the CSI resource config is a list in which multiple resources such as nzp-CSI-RS-SSB can be set as a CSI-RS (Reference Signal) resource set.

[0076] R16 CLI measurement resource config is a configuration related to L3 (Layer 3) reporting by measurement report. SRS resource, RSSI resource, etc. are set by CLI resource config called in measurement object.

[0077] The AP CSI report triggering is a configuration for calling the CSI-ReportConfigId in order to trigger a specific state selected from the trigger states previously configured by the RRC when a CSI report is triggered aperiodically by the DCI.

[0078] The SP CSI report triggering is a configuration for calling the CSI-ReportConfigId in order to trigger a specific state selected from among the trigger states configured in advance by the RRC when semi-statically triggering a CSI report.

[0079] (CSI reporting framework in NR) As shown in Fig. 8, the UE configures a CSI report using information including the Resource setting for Channel Measurement and reports it to the gNB. The Report setting in Fig. 8 is an example of the CSI report configuration. The Resource setting is information indicating the CSI-RS resource used for CSI measurement.

[0080] As shown in Fig. 9, each resource setting #i (i is an integer equal to or greater than 0) includes a CSI-RS resource set #j (j is an integer equal to or greater than 0). The resource setting in Fig. 9 is an image of a CSI resource config.

[0081] <Analysis> CLI occurs in communication methods such as SBFD and dynamic TDD. For example, in SBFD, when a terminal receives a downlink signal from a base station, it receives an uplink signal from another terminal as interference (UE-to-UE CLI).

[0082] To deal with CLI, the terminal measures the CLI and sends an L1-CLI report to the base station based on the CSI report framework.

[0083] The following issues remain regarding the L1-CLI report, and solutions need to be presented.

[0084] [Task 1] It is necessary to consider a specific method for configuring the CLI measurement resource in the CSI report configuration. The CLI measurement resource is a resource for measuring at least one of L1-SRS-RSRP and L1-CLI-RSSI.

[0085] [Task 2] A method for triggering an aperiodic L1-CLI report needs to be considered.

[0086] Currently, the aperiodic CSI report triggering state is based on the configuration of the NZP-CSI-RS resource set / CSI-IM (Interference Measurement) resource set (see Figure 34 for the NZP-CSI-RS resource set). If the CLI measurement resource is configured for the CSI report configuration, possible enhancements based on the aperiodic L1-CLI report triggering state should be considered.

[0087] Different solutions for configuring the CLI measurement resource for CSI report configuration may have different impacts on aperiodic L1-CLI reports.

[0088] <Proposal Summary> In this application, the following proposals are made to address the above-mentioned problems.

[0089] [Proposal 1] In Proposal 1, we propose a specific method for a UE to configure CLI measurement resources based on parameters in a CSI report configuration to address Problem 1.

[0090] [Proposal 2] In Proposal 2, we propose a specific method for the UE to trigger an aperiodic L1-CLI report to address Issue 2.

[0091] The items described in the following proposals may be combined as appropriate as long as no contradictions arise.

[0092] In this application, the notation " / " may mean "and / or" unless otherwise specified.

[0093] <Proposal 1> As shown in Figure 10, the CSI report config (CSI-ReportConfig) includes parameters for configuring resources for channel measurement (resourcesForChannelMeasurement), resources for CSI IM (csi-IM-ResourcesForInterference), and resources for nzp-CSI-RS (nzp-CSI-RS-ResourcesForInterference). Each parameter is associated with a CSI-ResourceConfigId.

[0094] CSI-ResourceConfigId is associated with csi-RS-ResourceSetList and csi-IM-ResourceSetList.

[0095] The csi-RS-ResourceSetList contains the NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSetID, and the csi-IM-ResourceSetList contains the CSI-IM-ResourceSetID.

[0096] NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceSetID contains NZP-CSI-RS-ResourceID. CSI-IM-ResourceSetID contains CSI-IM-ResourceID.

[0097] Proposal 1 proposes a specific method for a UE to configure CLI measurement resource based on parameters in a CSI report configuration.

[0098] (Option 1) The UE receives the CSI report configuration and sets the CLI measurement resource based on the parameters in an existing resource setting information element (IE) in the CSI report configuration.

[0099] (Note) The existing resource setting IE for channel / interference measurement may include parameters for setting the next resource. ·resourcesForChannelMeasurement ·csi-IM-ResourcesForInterference ·nzp-CSI-RS-ResourcesForInterference.

[0100] (Option 1-1) The CSI-ResourceConfigId may be associated with a CLI measurement resource (set or setting).

[0101] (Option 1-1A) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource may be configured in the csi-RS-ResourceSetList in the CSI-ResourceConfig.

[0102] An example of Option 1-1A is shown in Figure 11. In the example of Figure 11, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource (cli-rssi-Resource) is set by RSSI-ResourceId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (cli-srs-rsrp-Resource) is set by CLI-SRS-ResourceId.

[0103] (Option 1-1B) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set may be configured in the csi-RS-ResourceSetList. The CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set includes up to X (X≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0104] An example of Option 1-1B is shown in Figure 12. In the example of Figure 12, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource set (cli-rssi-ResourceSet) is set by the RSSI-ResourceSetId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set (cli-srs-rsrp-ResourceSet) is set by the CLI-SRS-ResourceSetId.

[0105] (Note) 12, RSSI-ResourceSetId may be replaced with SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) OF RSSI-ResourceId, and CLI-SRS-ResourceId may be replaced with SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) OF CLI-SRS-ResourceId.

[0106] (Option 1-1C) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource setting / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource setting may be configured in the csi-RS-ResourceSetList. The CLI-RSSI measurement resource setting / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource setting includes a maximum of Y (Y≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resource sets / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource sets. Also, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set includes a maximum of X (X≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0107] An example of Option 1-1C is shown in Figure 13. In the example of Figure 13, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource setting (cli-rssi-ResourceSetList) is set by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) or RSSI-ResourceSetId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource setting (cli-srs-rsrp-ResourceSetList) is set by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) or CLI-SRS-ResourceSetId.

[0108] (Variation of Option 1-1) In option 1-1, the value of X / Y may be defined by the specification or may be reported depending on the UE capability.

[0109] (Option 1-2) The existing resource setting IE for channel / interference measurement may be associated with the CLI measurement resource (set or setting) ID.

[0110] For example, in resourcesForChannelMeasurement / csi-IM-ResourcesForInterference / nzp-CSI-RS-ResourcesForInterference in CSI-ResourceConfig, parameters shown in any of the following sub-options may be set.

[0111] (Option 1-2A) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource may be configured.

[0112] An example of Option 1-2A is shown in Figure 14. In the example of Figure 14, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in each of resourcesForChannelMeasurement, csi-IM-ResourcesForInterference, and nzp-CSI-RS-ResourcesForInterference, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource config (Cli-rssi-ResourceConfig) is set by Cli-rssi-resourceId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource config (Cli-srs-rsrp-ResourceConfig) is set by Cli-srs-rsrp-resourceId.

[0113] (Option 1-2B) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set may be configured, in which case the CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set includes up to X (X≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0114] An example of Option 1-2B is shown in Figure 15. In the example of Figure 15, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in each of resourcesForChannelMeasurement, csi-IM-ResourcesForInterference, and nzp-CSI-RS-ResourcesForInterference, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource config (Cli-rssi-ResourceConfig) is set by Cli-rssi-resourceSetId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource config (Cli-srs-rsrp-ResourceConfig) is set by Cli-srs-rsrp-resourceSetId.

[0115] (Note) 15, Cli-rssi-resourceSetId may be replaced with SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) OF RSSI-ResourceId, and Cli-srs-rsrp-resourceSetId may be replaced with SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) OF CLI-SRS-ResourceId.

[0116] (Option 1-2C) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource configuration / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource configuration may be configured. In this case, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource configuration / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource configuration includes a maximum of Y (Y≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resource sets / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource sets, and the CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set includes a maximum of X (X≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0117] An example of Option 1-2C is shown in Figure 16. In the example of Figure 16, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in each of resourcesForChannelMeasurement, csi-IM-ResourcesForInterference, and nzp-CSI-RS-ResourcesForInterference, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource config (Cli-rssi-ResourceConfig) is set by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) or RSSI-ResourceSetId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource config (Cli-srs-rsrp-ResourceConfig) is set by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) or CLI-SRS-ResourceSetId.

[0118] (Variation of Option 1-2) In option 1-2, the value of X / Y may be defined by the specification or may be reported depending on the UE capability.

[0119] (Options 1-3) One NZP-CSI-RS resource set or CSI-IM resource set may be associated with a CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource.

[0120] (Option 1-3-1) For example, one CSI-IM resource set may include up to X1 CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0121] 17A and 17B show an example of Option 1-3-1. In the examples of Figures 17A and 17B, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in the CSI-IM-ResourceSet, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource (cli-rssi-Resources) is set by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerSet)) or RSSI-ResourceId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (cli-srs-rsrp-Resources) is set by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerSet)) or CLI-SRS-ResourceId.

[0122] In the example of FIG. 17B, when the resource set is associated with the CSI report as the report quantity that is "CLI-RSSI" or "SRS-RSRP", the extension parameter does not exist or is ignored.

[0123] (Option 1-3-2) For example, one NZP-CSI-RS resource set may include up to X2 CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0124] 18A and 18B show an example of Option 1-3-2. In the examples of Figures 18A and 18B, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in the NZP-CSI-RS ResourceSet, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource (cli-rssi-Resources) is configured by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerSet)) or RSSI-ResourceId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (cli-srs-rsrp-Resources) is configured by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerSet)) or CLI-SRS-ResourceId.

[0125] In the example of FIG. 18B, when the resource set is associated with the CSI report as the report quantity that is "CLI-RSSI" or "SRS-RSRP", the extension parameter does not exist or is ignored.

[0126] (Variations of options 1-3) In options 1-3, the value of X1 / Y1 may be defined by the specification or may be reported depending on the UE capability.

[0127] (Options 1-4) In order to reuse the existing NZP-CSI-RS resource configuration or CSI-IM resource configuration of the L1-CLI-RSSI report / L1-SRS-RSRP report, a new RS pattern (such as a CLI-RSSI resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP resource pattern) may be introduced into the NZP-CSI-RS resource or CSI-IM resource.

[0128] (Option 1-4-1) For example, a resource pattern such as CLI-RSSI may be supported in the CSI-IM resource configuration.

[0129] More specifically, the CSI-IM resource may be linked / associated with the CLI-RSSI resource by configuration.

[0130] Alternatively, CLI-RSSI resource configuration parameters such as rssi-SCS, rssi-startPRB, rssi-nrofPRBs, rssi-startPosition (or reusing existing freqBand), rssi-nrofSymbols, rssi-refServCellIndex, rssi-PeriodicityAndOffset (or reusing existing periodicityAndOffset) may be configured / introduced in CSI-IM-Resource.

[0131] In this case, the pattern "0" or "1" set by Csi-IM-ResourceElementPattern is ignored.

[0132] (Option 1-4-2) For example, a resource pattern such as SRS-RSRP may be supported in the NZP-CSI-RS resource configuration.

[0133] For example, SRS-RSRP resource configuration parameters, such as SRS resource configuration parameters, may be configured / implemented in NZP-CSI-RS-Resource.

[0134] (Option 2) The CLI measurement resource may be set in a new resource setting IE for CLI measurement.

[0135] A new resource setting IE (e.g., resourcesForCli-r19) is configured in CSI-ReportConfig.

[0136] The new resource setting IE may be associated with one CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (set or setting).

[0137] (Option 2-A) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource may be configured for the new resource setting IE.

[0138] An example of Option 2-A is shown in Figure 19. In the example of Figure 19, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in CSI-ReportConfig, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource (resourceForCli-rssi) is set by Cli-rssi-ResourceId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (resourceForCli-srs-rsrp) is set by Cli-srs-rsrp-ResourceId.

[0139] (Option 2-B) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set may be configured for the new resource setting IE, where the CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set includes up to X (X≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0140] An example of Option 2-B is shown in Figure 20. In the example of Figure 20, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in CSI-ReportConfig, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource (resourceForCli-rssi) is set by Cli-rssi-ResourceSetId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (resourceForCli-srs-rsrp) is set by Cli-srs-rsrp-ResourceSetId.

[0141] (Option 2-C) One CLI-RSSI measurement resource configuration / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource configuration may be configured for the new resource setting IE, where the CLI-RSSI measurement resource configuration / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource configuration includes a maximum of Y (Y≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resource sets / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource sets, and the CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set includes a maximum of X (X≧1) CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources.

[0142] An example of Option 2-C is shown in Figure 21. In the example of Figure 21, the underlined parameters are extended compared to the conventional ones. Specifically, in CSI-ReportConfig, the CLI-RSSI measurement resource (resourceForCli-rssi) is configured by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) OF RSSI-ResourceId, and the CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (resourceForCli-srs-rsrp) Cli-srs-rsrp-resourceSetId is configured by SEQUENCE (SIZE (1..maxNrofCli-ResourcesPerConfig)) OF CLI-SRS-ResourceId.

[0143] (Variation of Option 2) In option 2, the value of X / Y may be defined by the specification or may be reported depending on the UE capability.

[0144] (Effects of Proposal 1) According to Proposal 1, the parameters for configuring the CLI measurement resource are clarified, allowing the UE to properly transmit the L1-CLI report.

[0145] <Proposal 2> For options 1-3 / 1-4 of Proposal 1, enhancement of L1-CLI report triggering is not required. For options 1-1 / 1-2 / 2 of Proposal 1, enhancement of L1-CLI report triggering is required.

[0146] Proposal 2 proposes a specific method for the UE to trigger an aperiodic L1-CLI report.

[0147] <Proposal 2-1> Proposal 2-1 is a proposal for applying Option xA of Proposal 1 (including Option 1-1A / Option 1-2A / Option 2A).

[0148] (Alt.A-1) CSI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo is reused, and parameters indicating the resource set (e.g., resourcesForChannel / csi-IM-ResourcesForInterference / nzp-CSI-RS-ResourcesForInterference) are not present in the L1-CLI report triggering (see Figure 22). The UE ignores parameters in the L1-CLI report triggering that indicate the resource set.

[0149] In the example of FIG. 22, when the resource set is associated with the CSI report as the report quantity that is "CLI-RSSI" or "SRS-RSRP", the extension parameter does not exist or is ignored.

[0150] (Alt.A-2) As shown in Fig. 23, a new CLI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo associated with a CSI-ReportConfigId may be introduced. In the example of Fig. 23, the underlined parameters are extended from the conventional ones.

[0151] Note that one triggering state may include one or more CLI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo / CSI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo.

[0152] <Proposal 2-2> Proposal 2-2 is a proposal for applying Option xB of Proposal 1 (including Option 1-1B / Option 1-2B / Option 2B).

[0153] (Alt.B-1) All CLI-RSSI measurement resources / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resources in the L1-CLI report configuration may be triggered for the L1-CLI report.

[0154] Here, Alt.A-1 / Alt.A-2 can be applied to Alt.B-1.

[0155] (Alt.B-2) One triggering state may trigger one CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource for an L1-CLI report.

[0156] (Example B-2-1) As shown in Figures 24 and 25, the CSI-AssociatedReportConfigInfoIE may be reused, and a new parameter indicating one CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource may be introduced. In the examples of Figures 24 and 25, the underlined parameters are extended from the conventional ones.

[0157] (Example B-2-2) As shown in Fig. 26, a new CLI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo may be introduced, which is associated with a CSI-ReportConfigId and includes parameters indicating one CLI-RSSI measurement resource / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource. In the example of Fig. 26, the underlined parameters are extended from the conventional ones.

[0158] One triggering state may include one or more CLI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo / CSI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo.

[0159] <Proposal 2-3> Proposal 2-3 is a proposal for applying Option xC of Proposal 1 (including Option 1-1C / Option 1-2C / Option 2C).

[0160] (Alt.C-1) All CLI-RSSI measurement resource sets / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource sets in the L1-CLI report configuration may be triggered for the L1-CLI report.

[0161] Here, Alt.A-1 / Alt.A-2 can be applied to Alt.C-1.

[0162] (Note) Alt.C-1 is also applicable when only one CLI measurement resource set is configured and only that CLI measurement resource set is triggered.

[0163] (Alt.C-2) One triggering state may trigger one CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set for an L1-CLI report.

[0164] (Example C-2-1) As shown in Figures 27 and 28, new parameters may be introduced into CSI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo to indicate one CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set. In the examples of Figures 27 and 28, the underlined parameters are extended from the conventional ones.

[0165] (Example C-2-2) As shown in Fig. 29, a new CLI-AssociatedReportConfigInfo may be introduced, which is associated with a CSI-ReportConfigId and includes parameters indicating one CLI-RSSI measurement resource set / CLI-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set. In the example of Fig. 29, the underlined parameters are extended from the conventional ones.

[0166] (Effects of Proposal 2) According to Proposal 2, the method for triggering an aperiodic L1-CLI report in the UE is clarified, so that the UE can appropriately transmit the L1-CLI report.

[0167] <Analysis 2> Above, the measurement resource configuration for the L1-CLI report was described, where a CLI measurement resource set may include a list of resources (see FIG. 35).

[0168] The following details the configuration (eg, parameters) of the CLI measurement resource set and resource configuration (CLI measurement resource).

[0169] <Proposal 3> If CSI-ResourceConfigId is linked with a CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resource setting, a list of CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resource set IDs is configured in CSI-ResourceConfigId.

[0170] If CSI-ResourceConfigId is linked with CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resource settings, for resourceType periodic / semi-persistent / aperiodic CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resources for L1 CLI reporting are supported.

[0171] Variation 1 Only aperiodic (or semi-persistent / periodic) CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resources are supported for L1 CLI reporting.

[0172] For example, when a list of CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resource sets is configured in the CSI-ResourceConfigId, the UE expects the resourceType IE to be set as "aperiodic" (or "semi-persistent or periodic").

[0173] For example, if a list of CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resource sets is configured in the CSI-ResourceConfigId, the UE shall ignore the resourceType IE and consider the CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resources for L1 CLI reports as aperiodic (or semi-persistent / periodic).

[0174] Variation 2 The (maximum) number of CLI-RSSI / SRS-RSRP measurement resource sets in a CSI-ResourceConfigId depends (vary) on the configured resource types.

[0175] For example, if the resource type is periodic, a maximum of X1 CLI measurement resource sets may be configured, if the resource type is semi-persistent, a maximum of X2 CLI measurement resource sets may be configured, and if the resource type is aperiodic, a maximum of X3 CLI measurement resource sets may be configured.

[0176] <Suggestion 4> Proposal 4 relates to L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (set). For L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (set), the following is provided:

[0177] (1) L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set configuration

[0178] The following options 1 and 2 are provided for the L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set and L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource.

[0179] Option 1 The L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set is linked to an SRS resource set ID, which can be simpler than option 2 since existing SRS parameter configurations are reused.

[0180] Variations of Option 1 The UE expects the L1-SRS-RSRP report to be associated with an aperiodic (or semi-persistent / periodic) SRS resource set.

[0181] Option 2 The L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set is configured to include a list of SRS-RSRP measurement resources, and each SRS-RSRP measurement resource is linked to an SRS resource ID. A list of L1-CLI-RSSI measurement resource IDs is configured for the L1-CLI-RSSI measurement resource set.

[0182] (2) Configuration of slot positions

[0183] An aperiodic triggering offset is configured for the aperiodic L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (set). For the aperiodic triggering offset, the following Alt. 1-a, Alt. 1-b and variations are provided.

[0184] Alt.1-a Aperiodic L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurements are configured for each resource set. The aperiodic triggering offset indicates the slot offset between the slot containing the triggering DCI and the slot in which the L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set is transmitted.

[0185] Alt.1-b It is configured for each aperiodic L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource. The aperiodic triggering offset indicates the slot offset between the slot containing the triggering DCI and the slot in which the L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set is transmitted.

[0186] Variations This parameter may be optionally set, if not present a default value (e.g. 0) defined by the specification or UE capability report may be applied.

[0187] The periodicity / offset is configured for periodic / semi-persistent L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource (set). For periodicity / offset, Alt.2-a, Alt.2-b and variations are provided below.

[0188] Alt.2-a The periodicity / offset is configured for each periodic / semi-persistent L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource set and is commonly applied to each L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource within the resource set.

[0189] Alt.2-b The periodicity / offset is configured for each periodic / semi-persistent L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resource.

[0190] Variations The UE expects the same periodicity to be configured for L1-CLI-RSSI / L1-SRS-RSRP measurement resources in the same resource set.

[0191] (3) Setting the symbol position for the L1-CLI-RSSI measurement resource

[0192] The start symbol and the number of symbols are set for each L1-CLI-RSSI measurement resource.

[0193] (4) Configuring frequency domain parameters for L1-CLI-RSSI measurement resources

[0194] The starting PRB and the number of PRBs are configured for each L1-CLI-RSSI measurement resource.

[0195] <Variations of Proposal 1 and Proposal 2> (Combined with options) Throughout the proposals, which proposals are applied or which options or alternatives are used may be determined by: - Set by upper layer parameters Determined by related higher level parameters -Indicated in MAC CE or DCI Determined based on UE capabilities - Listed in the specifications - Determined based on the conditions stated in the specifications Determined by higher layer parameters / MAC CE / DCI configuration and reported UE capabilities (combination of the above decisions)

[0199] In the present disclosure, the UE may receive information from the network (NW) as the following QCL rules: QCL Type A QCL Type B QCL Type C QCL Type D

[0200] In this disclosure, the QCL resource RS for each QCL type may be configured as follows: SSB (SS / PBCH Block) CSI-RS with / without repetition ·TRS(tracking reference signal) PDCCH / PDSCH DMRS

[0201] In this disclosure, information from the network (NW) is organized / displayed as follows: ·UE common / UE only Cell specific / Cell common Per UE / CC / BWP / band / cell / CG

[0202] (Signal from UE to NW) In this disclosure, the UE may report the following types of information to the network (NW): Also, throughout the proposal, the network (NW) may be referred to as a gNB.

[0204] <UE capability> The UE capability indicating the capability of the terminal may include the following information indicating the capability of the terminal. For example, the following new UE capability and report signaling (and RRC configuration) may be defined. Note that the information indicating the capability of the terminal may correspond to information defining the capability of the terminal.

[0206] Next, the configurations of base station 100 and terminal 200 will be described. Note that the configurations of base station 100 and terminal 200 described below are examples of functions related to the present embodiment. Base station 100 and terminal 200 may have functions not shown. Furthermore, the functional divisions and / or names of functional units are not limited as long as the functions perform operations related to the present embodiment.

[0207] <Base station configuration> 30 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of base station 100 according to this embodiment. Base station 100 includes, for example, a transmitting unit 101, a receiving unit 102, and a control unit 103. Base station 100 communicates with terminal 200 (see FIG. 31) wirelessly.

[0208] Transmitter 101 transmits a downlink (DL) signal to terminal 200. For example, transmitter 101 transmits a DL signal (for example, the above-mentioned RRC, SIB, MAC CE, DCI, notification, confirmation, etc.) under the control of controller 103.

[0209] The DL signal may include, for example, a downlink data signal and control information (e.g., Downlink Control Information (DCI)). The DL signal may also include information indicating scheduling related to signal transmission of terminal 200 (e.g., an UL grant). The DL signal may also include control information of higher layers (e.g., control information of Radio Resource Control (RRC)). The DL signal may also include a reference signal.

[0210] Channels used for transmitting DL signals include, for example, a downlink data channel and a downlink control channel. For example, the downlink data channel may include a PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel), and the downlink control channel may include a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel). For example, base station 100 transmits downlink control information to terminal 200 using the PDCCH and transmits downlink data signals using the PDSCH.

[0211] The reference signal included in the DL signal may include at least one of a demodulation reference signal (Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS)), a Phase Tracking Reference Signal (PTRS), a Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS), a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS), and a Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) for position information. For example, reference signals such as DMRS and PTRS are used for demodulating downlink data signals and are transmitted using the PDSCH.

[0212] The receiver 102 receives an uplink (UL) signal transmitted from the terminal 200. For example, under the control of the controller 103, the receiver 102 receives an UL signal (for example, the above-mentioned request, notification, etc.).

[0213] The transmitting unit 101 and the receiving unit 102 may be collectively referred to as a communication unit.

[0214] The control unit 103 controls the communication operations of the base station 100, including the transmission processing of the transmission unit 101 and the reception processing of the reception unit .

[0215] For example, the control unit 103 acquires information such as data and control information from the upper layer and outputs it to the transmitting unit 101. The control unit 103 also outputs the data, control information, etc. received from the receiving unit 102 to the upper layer.

[0216] For example, control unit 103 allocates resources (or channels) used for transmitting and receiving DL signals and / or resources used for transmitting and receiving UL signals based on signals (e.g., data and control information, etc.) received from terminal 200 and / or data and control information, etc. acquired from a higher layer. Information related to the allocated resources may be included in control information transmitted to terminal 200.

[0217] <Device configuration> 31 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of terminal 200 according to the present embodiment. Terminal 200 includes, for example, receiving section 201, transmitting section 202, and control section 203. Terminal 200 communicates with base station 100, for example, wirelessly.

[0218] The transmitter 202 transmits an UL signal to the base station 100. For example, the transmitter 202 transmits the UL signal under the control of the controller 203. For example, the transmitter 202 may transmit an MsgA PRACH in a valid MsgA RO determined by the controller 203, and may transmit an MsgA PUSCH in a valid MsgA PO determined by the controller 203.

[0219] The UL signal may include, for example, an uplink data signal and control information (e.g., UCI). For example, information related to the processing capability of terminal 200 (e.g., UE capability) may be included. The UL signal may also include a reference signal.

[0220] Channels used for transmitting UL signals include, for example, an uplink data channel and an uplink control channel. For example, the uplink data channel includes a PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), and the uplink control channel includes a PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel). For example, terminal 200 transmits uplink control information to base station 100 using the PUCCH and transmits uplink data signals using the PUSCH.

[0221] The reference signals included in the UL signal may include, for example, at least one of DMRS, PTRS, CSI-RS, SRS, and PRS. For example, the reference signals such as DMRS and PTRS are used for demodulating the uplink data signal and are transmitted using an uplink channel (for example, PUSCH).

[0222] The receiving unit 201 and the transmitting unit 202 may be collectively referred to as a communication unit.

[0223] The control unit 203 controls the communication operations of the terminal 200 , including the reception processing in the reception unit 201 and the transmission processing in the transmission unit 202 .

[0224] For example, the control unit 203 acquires information such as data and control information from a higher layer and outputs it to the transmitting unit 202. Also, the control unit 203 outputs, for example, the data and control information received from the receiving unit 201 to the higher layer.

[0225] For example, the control unit 203 controls transmission of information to be fed back to the base station 100. The information to be fed back to the base station 100 may include, for example, HARQ-ACK, Channel State Information (CSI), or a Scheduling Request (SR). The information to be fed back to the base station 100 may be included in UCI.

[0226] Note that the channel used for transmitting the DL signal and the channel used for transmitting the UL signal are not limited to the above-mentioned examples. For example, the channel used for transmitting the DL signal and the channel used for transmitting the UL signal may include a Random Access Channel (RACH) and a Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH). The RACH may be used to transmit Downlink Control Information (DCI) including a Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RA-RNTI), for example.

[0227] <Hardware configuration, etc.> The block diagrams used to explain the above embodiments show functional blocks. These functional blocks (components) are realized by any combination of at least one of hardware and software. Furthermore, the method for realizing each functional block is not particularly limited. That is, each functional block may be realized using a single device that is physically or logically coupled, or may be realized using two or more physically or logically separated devices that are directly or indirectly connected (for example, using wires, wirelessly, etc.) and these multiple devices. The functional block may also be realized by combining the single device or multiple devices with software.

"Determining" and "determining" may include, for example, judging, calculating, computing, processing, deriving, investigating, looking up, searching, inquiring (e.g., searching in a table, database, or other data structure), ascertaining, and the like. "Determining" and "determining" may also include receiving (e.g., receiving information), transmitting (e.g., sending information), input, output, accessing (e.g., accessing data in memory), and the like. Furthermore, "judgment" and "decision" can include regarding resolving, selecting, choosing, establishing, comparing, etc. as having been "judged" or "decided." In other words, "judgment" and "decision" can include regarding some action as having been "judged" or "decided." Furthermore, "judgment (decision)" can be interpreted as "assuming," "expecting," "considering," etc.

[0277] The terms "connected," "coupled," or any variation thereof, refer to any direct or indirect connection or coupling between two or more elements, and may include the presence of one or more intermediate elements between two elements that are "connected" or "coupled" to each other. The coupling or connection between elements may be physical, logical, or a combination thereof. For example, "connected" may be read as "access." As used in this disclosure, two elements may be considered to be "connected" or "coupled" to each other using one or more wires, cables, and / or printed electrical connections, as well as electromagnetic energy having wavelengths in the radio frequency range, microwave range, and optical (both visible and invisible) range, as some non-limiting and non-exhaustive examples.

[0278] <Reference signal> The reference signal may be abbreviated as RS (Reference Signal) or may be called a pilot depending on the applicable standard.

[0279] <The meaning of "based on"> As used in this disclosure, the phrase "based on" does not mean "based only on," unless expressly stated otherwise. In other words, the phrase "based on" means both "based only on" and "based at least on."

[0280] <"First", "Second"> As used in this disclosure, any reference to an element using a designation such as "first," "second," etc. does not generally limit the quantity or order of those elements. These designations may be used in this disclosure as a convenient method of distinguishing between two or more elements. Thus, a reference to a first and a second element does not imply that only two elements may be employed or that the first element must in some way precede the second element.

[0281] <Means> In the configuration of each of the above devices, the "means" may be replaced with a "section", "circuit", "device", or the like.

[0282] <Open format> In the present disclosure, when terms such as "include", "including", and their variants are used, these terms are intended to be inclusive, similar to the term "comprising". Further, the term "or" used in the present disclosure is not intended to be an exclusive disjunction.

[0283] <Time units such as TTI, frequency units such as RB, radio frame configuration> A radio frame may be composed of one or more frames in the time domain. Each of the one or more frames in the time domain may be referred to as a subframe. A subframe may further be composed of one or more slots in the time domain. A subframe may have a fixed time length (e.g., 1 ms) that does not depend on numerology.

[0284] Numerology may be a communication parameter applied to at least one of the transmission and reception of a certain signal or channel. Numerology may indicate, for example, at least one of a subcarrier spacing (SCS), bandwidth, symbol length, cyclic prefix length, transmission time interval (TTI), number of symbols per TTI, radio frame configuration, specific filtering processing performed by a transceiver in the frequency domain, specific windowing processing performed by a transceiver in the time domain, and the like.

[0285] A slot may be composed of one or more symbols (such as an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol or a Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) symbol) in the time domain. A slot may be a time unit based on numerology.

[0286] A slot may include multiple minislots. Each minislot may consist of one or multiple symbols in the time domain. A minislot may also be called a subslot. A minislot may consist of fewer symbols than a slot. A PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted in a time unit larger than a minislot may be called PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type A. A PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted using a minislot may be called PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type B.

[0287] The radio frame, subframe, slot, minislot, and symbol all represent time units for transmitting signals, and may be referred to by other names corresponding to the radio frame, subframe, slot, minislot, and symbol.

[0288] For example, one subframe may be called a transmission time interval (TTI), multiple consecutive subframes may be called a TTI, or one slot or one minislot may be called a TTI. That is, at least one of the subframe and the TTI may be a subframe (1 ms) in existing LTE, a period shorter than 1 ms (for example, 1-13 symbols), or a period longer than 1 ms. Note that the unit representing the TTI may be called a slot, minislot, etc. instead of a subframe.

[0289] Here, TTI refers to, for example, the smallest time unit for scheduling in wireless communication. For example, in an LTE system, a base station performs scheduling to allocate radio resources (such as frequency bandwidth and transmission power that can be used by each user terminal) to each user terminal in TTI units. However, the definition of TTI is not limited to this.

[0290] The TTI may be a transmission time unit for a channel-encoded data packet (transport block), a code block, a code word, etc., or may be a processing unit for scheduling, link adaptation, etc. When a TTI is given, the time interval (e.g., the number of symbols) to which a transport block, a code block, a code word, etc. is actually mapped may be shorter than the TTI.

[0291] When one slot or one minislot is called a TTI, one or more TTIs (i.e., one or more slots or one or more minislots) may be the minimum time unit for scheduling. Also, the number of slots (minislots) constituting the minimum time unit for scheduling may be controlled.

[0292] A TTI having a time length of 1 ms may be called a regular TTI (TTI in LTE Rel. 8-12), normal TTI, long TTI, regular subframe, normal subframe, long subframe, slot, etc. A TTI shorter than a regular TTI may be called a shortened TTI, short TTI, partial or fractional TTI, shortened subframe, short subframe, minislot, subslot, slot, etc.

[0293] In addition, a long TTI (e.g., a normal TTI, a subframe, etc.) may be interpreted as a TTI having a time length of more than 1 ms, and a short TTI (e.g., a shortened TTI, etc.) may be interpreted as a TTI having a TTI length shorter than the TTI length of a long TTI and equal to or greater than 1 ms.

[0294] A resource block (RB) is a resource allocation unit in the time domain and frequency domain, and may include one or more consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain. The number of subcarriers included in an RB may be the same regardless of numerology, for example, 12. The number of subcarriers included in an RB may also be determined based on numerology.

[0295] The time domain of an RB may include one or more symbols and may have a length of one slot, one minislot, one subframe, or one TTI. One TTI, one subframe, etc. may each be composed of one or more resource blocks.

[0296] Note that one or more RBs may also be called a physical resource block (PRB), a sub-carrier group (SCG), a resource element group (REG), a PRB pair, an RB pair, or the like.

[0297] Furthermore, 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.

[0298] A Bandwidth Part (BWP) (which may also be referred to as a fractional bandwidth) may represent a subset of contiguous common resource blocks (RBs) for a given numerology on a given carrier, where the common RBs may be identified by their index relative to a common reference point of the carrier. PRBs may be defined in a given BWP and numbered within that BWP.

[0299] 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 within one carrier.

[0300] At least one of the configured BWPs may be active, and the UE may not expect to transmit or receive a given signal / channel outside the active BWP. Note that the terms "cell," "carrier," etc. in this disclosure may be read as "BWP."

[0301] The above-described structures of radio frames, subframes, slots, minislots, symbols, etc. are merely examples. For example, the number of subframes included in a radio frame, the number of slots per subframe or radio frame, the number of minislots included in a slot, the number of symbols and RBs included in a slot or minislot, the number of subcarriers included in an RB, the number of symbols in a TTI, the symbol length, the cyclic prefix (CP) length, etc. may be changed in various ways.

[0302] <Maximum transmission power> The "maximum transmit power" in this disclosure may mean the maximum value of transmit power, the nominal UE maximum transmit power, or the rated UE maximum transmit power.

[0303] <Article> In this disclosure, where articles are added by translation, such as a, an, and the in English, the disclosure may include that the nouns following these articles are in the plural form.

[0304] <"Different"> In the present disclosure, the term "A and B are different" may mean "A and B are different from each other." The term may also mean "A and B are each different from C." Terms such as "separate" and "coupled" may also be interpreted in the same way as "different." [Industrial Applicability]
