Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a terminal and a communication method in a wireless communication system. [Background technology]

[0002] 3GPP (registered trademark) (3rd Generation Partnership Project) is currently studying a wireless communication system called 5G or NR (New Radio) (hereinafter, this wireless communication system will be referred to as "NR") in order to achieve a larger system capacity, a higher data transmission speed, and a lower latency in wireless sections. In 5G, various wireless technologies and network architectures are being studied to meet the requirements of achieving a throughput of 10 Gbps or more while keeping the latency in wireless sections to 1 ms or less (for example, Non-Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 2).

[0004] To further reduce the power consumption of conventional WUS (Wake Up Signal), an ultra-low power method called LP (Low Power)-WUS (Wake Up Signal) / WUR (Wake Up Receiver) is being studied. An LP-WUS occasion (LO) consists of multiple MOs (LP-WUS monitoring occasions). When an LP-WUS is received in a certain MO, the associated Paging Frame (PF) and Paging Occasion (PO) must be determined and monitoring must be performed.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and has an object to determine a time resource associated with a low power (LP)-wake up signal (WUS) in a wireless communication system. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiment described below is an example, and the embodiment to which the present invention is applied is not limited to the following embodiment.

[0010] In the operation of the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present invention, existing technologies are used as appropriate. However, the existing technologies are, for example, but not limited to, the existing LTE. Furthermore, the term "LTE" used in this specification has a broad meaning including LTE-Advanced and systems subsequent to LTE-Advanced (e.g., NR) unless otherwise specified.

[0011] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present invention described below, terms used in existing LTE, such as SS (Synchronization signal), PSS (Primary SS), SSS (Secondary SS), PBCH (Physical broadcast channel), PRACH (Physical random access channel), PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel), PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel), PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel), and PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel), are used. This is for convenience of description, and similar signals, functions, etc. may be called by other names. The above-mentioned terms in NR are referred to as SS, PSS, SSS, PBCH, PRACH, etc. without any particular distinction from LTE.

[0012] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present invention, the duplex method may be a TDD (Time Division Duplex) method, an FDD (Frequency Division Duplex) method, or other methods (for example, Flexible Duplex, etc.).

[0013] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present invention, when radio parameters and the like are "configured," it may mean that predetermined values ​​are pre-configured, or that radio parameters notified from the base station 10 or the terminal 20 are set.

[0014] Fig. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 1, the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a base station 10 and a terminal 20. Although Fig. 1 shows one base station 10 and one terminal 20, this is an example, and there may be a plurality of each.

[0015] The base station 10 is a communication device that provides one or more cells and performs wireless communication with the terminal 20. The physical resources of a wireless signal are defined in the time domain and the frequency domain. The time domain may be defined by the number of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, and the frequency domain may be defined by the number of subcarriers or the number of resource blocks. The base station 10 transmits a synchronization signal and system information to the terminal 20. The synchronization signal is, for example, a PSS and an SSS. The system information is, for example, transmitted via a PBCH and is also referred to as broadcast information. The synchronization signal and system information may be referred to as an SSB (SS / PBCH block). As shown in FIG. 1 , the base station 10 transmits control signals or data to the terminal 20 in a downlink (DL) and receives control signals or data from the terminal 20 in an uplink (UL). Both the base station 10 and the terminal 20 are capable of transmitting and receiving signals by performing beamforming. Furthermore, both the base station 10 and the terminal 20 are capable of applying MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) communication to the DL or UL. In addition, both the base station 10 and the terminal 20 may communicate via a secondary cell (SCell: Secondary Cell) and a primary cell (PCell: Primary Cell) using CA (Carrier Aggregation). Furthermore, the terminal 20 may communicate via a primary cell of the base station 10 and a primary secondary cell group cell (PSCell: Primary SCG Cell) of another base station 10 using DC (Dual Connectivity).

[0016] The terminal 20 is a communication device equipped with a wireless communication function, such as a smartphone, a mobile phone, a tablet, a wearable terminal, or an M2M (Machine-to-Machine) communication module. As shown in Fig. 1, 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 also receives various reference signals transmitted from the base station 10 and measures the propagation path quality based on the reception results of the reference signals.

[0017] Fig. 2 is a diagram illustrating a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 shows an example of the configuration of a wireless communication system in which DC (Dual connectivity) is implemented. As shown in Fig. 2, a base station 10A serving as an MN (Master Node) and a base station 10B serving as an SN (Secondary Node) are provided. The base station 10A and the base station 10B are each connected to a core network. The terminal 20 can communicate with both the base station 10A and the base station 10B.

[0018] A cell group provided by base station 10A, which is an MN, is called an MCG (Master Cell Group), and a cell group provided by base station 10B, which is an SN, is called an SCG (Secondary Cell Group). In addition, in a DC, an MCG is composed of one PCell and one or more SCells, and an SCG is composed of one PSCell (Primary SCG Cell) and one or more SCells.

[0019] The processing operations in this embodiment may be executed in the system configuration shown in Fig. 1, in the system configuration shown in Fig. 2, or in other system configurations. In the following description, " / " means "and / or" unless otherwise specified or unless it is clear from the context that it has a different meaning.

[0020] 3GPP (registered trademark) is currently studying a power consumption reduction technology called "Low-Power Wake Up Signal and Receiver." The Low-Power Wake Up Signal is called LP-WUS or simply WUS, and the Low-Power Wake Up Receiver is called LP-WUR, WUR, or LR. The LR, a simple circuit that operates with lower power consumption than the Main Radio (MR) used in normal data communications, operates as an alternative to the MR, introducing a state called Ultra-Deep Sleep. The LR may have a function that triggers the MR to be powered off or powered on when it receives an LP-WUS signal.

[0021] 3GPP Rel-19 also considers the following: For example, it specifies a Low Power-Synchronization Signal (LP-SS) with a specific period corresponding to the LP-WUR for serving cell synchronization and / or Radio Resource Management (RRM) in idle mode / inactive mode. The LP-SS is a signal based on an On Off Keying (OOK) waveform with or without an overlaid Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) sequence. It also specifies necessary conditions, further RRM relaxation in the MR of the UE for both serving cell measurements and neighbor cell measurements, and UE serving cell RRM measurements offloaded from the MR to the LP-WUR.

[0022] The purpose of the RRM procedure in idle / inactive mode is to ensure that the terminal is camped on the best cell.

[0023] In serving cell measurement (see Non-Patent Document 3), the terminal measures the SS-RSRP and SS-RSRQ levels of the serving cell and evaluates the cell selection criteria of the serving cell at least once every M1×N1 DRX cycles. SMTC If FR1 is greater than 20 ms and the DRX (Discontinuous Reception) cycle is less than or equal to 0.64 seconds, then M1 = 2; otherwise, M1 = 1. Also, N1 = 1 in FR1, and N1 = 3 to 12 in FR2.

[0024] Neighbor cell measurements (intra- or inter-frequency cell reselection, see section 5.2.4 of 3GPP TS 36.210) only need to be performed if the serving cell is not strong enough, i.e., if one of the following is not met: Intra-frequency cell reselection criteria: Srxlev>S IntraSearchP and Squal>S IntraSearchQ Inter-frequency cell reselection criteria: Srxlev>S nonIntraSearchP and Squal>S nonIntraSearchQ

[0025] Furthermore, if the terminal is configured with a DRX_IDLE / eDRX_IDLE cycle and the terminal evaluates that the serving cell does not satisfy the cell selection criterion in Nserv consecutive DRX / eDRX cycles, the terminal starts measuring all neighboring cells indicated by the serving cell, regardless of the measurement rule that currently restricts the measurement activity. Here, the cell selection criterion S is Srxlev>0 and Squal>0 (see Section 5.2.3.2 of Non-Patent Document 3). Here, Srxlev and Squal are calculated as follows: ·Srxlev=Q rxlevmeas -(Q rxlevmin +Q rxlevminoffset )-P compensation -Q offsettemp Squal=Q qualmeas -(Q qualmin +Q qualminoffset )-Qoffset temp

[0026] Regarding detection and synchronization by LP-WUR, initial synchronization and fine synchronization using SSB may be performed by MR. Note that initial synchronization may be replaced by coarse synchronization. Further synchronization by LP-SS and / or LP-WUS may be performed by detecting LP-SS and / or LP-WUS by LR. Hereinafter, LP-SS and / or LP-WUS are also referred to as LP-SS / LP-WUS.

[0027] 3 is a sequence diagram illustrating an example of receiving a low-power signal. In step S101, BS 10 transmits a notification related to LP-SS / LP-WUS to UE 20. In step S102, UE 20 sets LP-WUR based on the notification. In step S103, BS 10 transmits LP-SS / LP-WUS to UE 20. In step S104, UE 20 detects or receives LP-SS / LP-WUS and performs synchronization, RRM measurement, or MR activation.

[0028] In idle / inactive mode, a UE performing LP-WUS monitoring can enter an ultra deep sleep (UDS) state, which is an ultra low power consumption state.

[0029] Because UDS has extremely low power consumption, the UE takes longer to transition from UDS to a communication-enabled state compared to a legacy sleep state. The ramp-up time of the UE with UDS and the ramp-up time of the other legacy sleep states may be specified.

[0030] The period from the time it takes for the LR to process the LP-WUS until the MR completes synchronization or resynchronization is considered an example of a “wake-up delay.” This period may also be referred to as a wake-up delay.

[0031] As another example of wake-up delay, some IoT devices have a wake-up delay that is longer than the I (IDLE mode)-DRX cycle length, for example 1280 ms, such as 2000 ms.

[0032] In the RRC CONNECTED mode, the wake-up delay may be the minimum gap between the reception of the LP-WUS and the start of PDCCH monitoring by the MR, and includes at least the processing time of the LP-WUS, the transition time for ramping up the MR, and the time-frequency synchronization time of the MR.

[0033] 4 is a diagram illustrating an example (1) of receiving a low-power signal. The wake-up delay may include the processing time of the LP-WUS, the transition time for ramping up the MR, and the time required for time-frequency synchronization of the MR.

[0034] Since the wake-up delay of UDS is longer than that of the legacy sleep state, the time offset shown in FIG. 3 between LO (LP-WUS Occasion), MO (Monitoring Occasion), and PO (Paging Occasion) may be set to be equal to or greater than the wake-up delay of the UE to ensure that the UE can monitor the PO after receiving the LP-WUS. Note that the time offset may be the time interval from the beginning of LO or the beginning of LO and MO to the beginning of the PO, as shown in FIG. 3. Note that the low-power wake-up signal opportunity is an opportunity to monitor a low-power wake-up signal, and may be specified by at least an interval in the time domain. For example, an example of a low-power wake-up signal opportunity may be LO.

[0035] However, as mentioned in the previous slide, UEs have different wake-up delays, so it is desirable to set several time offsets that compensate for each wake-up delay.

[0036] The following option 1 or option 2 may be specified for the time offset setting method.

[0037] Option 1: The UE reports its wake-up delay capability to the network. The offset between LO and PO is configured by the network based on the reported wake-up delay capability. One or more values ​​may be included in the wake-up delay capability. One or more values ​​may be configurable for the offset between LO and PO. Option 1 can compensate for some wake-up delays of UEs. On the other hand, since all UEs report their wake-up delay capability, the network overhead and UE complexity are higher. Because the wake-up delay is not specified, the time offset may be too large (e.g., 2000 ms) for a UE with a long wake-up delay.

[0038] Option 2: A single offset between LO and PO is configured by the network. In this specification, a single value is specified for the wake-up delay, and UEs that support the LP-WUS feature shall support a wake-up delay equal to or less than this value. Option 2 reduces network overhead and UE complexity because the time offset is determined without the UE reporting its wake-up delay capability. However, UEs cannot have different wake-up delays.

[0039] 5 is a diagram illustrating an example (2) of receiving a low-power signal. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, depending on the timing of the paging arrival, a UE that supports a short wake-up delay (e.g., 30 ms) may be unable to receive a paging message in Option 2, even though it can receive it in Option 1.

[0040] The I-DRX cycle is assumed to be 1280 ms, and the wake-up delay is assumed to be 400 ms or 800 ms. In this case, the delay may occur with a probability of 400 ms / 1280 ms or 800 ms / 1280 ms. Therefore, Option 2 is not well suited for UEs that support a short wake-up delay (e.g., 30 ms).

[0041] 6 is a diagram illustrating an example (3) of receiving a low-power signal. As shown in FIG. 6, a UE with a long wake-up delay (e.g., 2000 ms) cannot receive paging messages in all POs during a legacy I-DRX cycle. Also, the UE cannot receive paging messages in all POs during LP-WUS monitoring.

[0042] The following is being considered for LP-WUS or WUR:

[0043] A LP-WUS may be designed that is commonly applicable to both IDLE and INACTIVE modes and CONNECTED modes. An OOK (OOK-1 and / or OOK-4)-based LP-WUS with an OFDM sequence overlaid on the OOK symbol may be specified. The LP-WUS design shall ensure that the same information is delivered for IDLE and INACTIVE operation regardless of the LP-WUS type, and the OFDM sequence can carry the information. At least duty cycle monitoring of the LP-WUS may be supported.

[0044] In IDLE and INACTIVE modes, LP-WUS procedures and settings may be defined that indicate LP-WUS triggered paging monitoring, including at least the settings, subgrouping, and entry or exit conditions for LP-WUS monitoring.

[0045] In IDLE and INACTIVE modes, an LP-SS with a periodicity of Y ms for the LP-WUR may be specified for serving cell synchronization and / or RRM. The LP-SS is based on OOK-1 and / or OOK-4 waveforms with or without an overlaid OFDM sequence. Further down-selection between those with and without an overlaid OFDM sequence may be performed. Note that for LP-WURs that can receive the existing PSS / SSS, the existing PSS / SSS may be used for synchronization and RRM instead of the LP-SS. Y may be specified, and 320 ms may be supported.

[0046] In IDLE and INACTIVE modes, further RRM relaxations for the UE MR for both serving cell measurements and neighbor cell measurements may be specified, as well as UE serving cell RRM measurements offloaded from the MR to the LP-WUR, including necessary conditions.

[0047] In the CONNECTED mode, procedures may be defined to allow UE MR PDCCH monitoring triggered by LP-WUS, including LP-WUS monitoring activation and deactivation procedures.

[0048] In CONNECTED mode, UE MR ultra-deep sleep is not considered, and UE RRM / RLM / BFD / CSI measurements may be performed by the MR. The target coverage of LP-WUS and LP-SS may be the coverage of PUSCH in message 3. Optimization of LP-WUS signal design for idle / inactive mode may take priority over optimization for connected mode.

[0049] At least a frame-level offset may be provided for the offset value(s) between the LO and the reference PO / PF. The reference point (reference PO / PF) for the frame-level offset may be the start of the PF associated with the LO, or the first PF of the PF (if mapping of POs from multiple PFs to one LO is supported). Other offset values ​​may be applied that determine the MO within the LO.

[0050] For the offset value(s) between the LO and the reference PO / PF, the gNB may configure one or two offset values, or the gNB may configure three offset values. If multiple offset values ​​are configured and the gap between the LO associated with the largest offset value and the corresponding PO is equal to or greater than the wake-up delay reported by the UE, the UE may monitor the LO associated with the smallest offset value that has a gap between the LO and the PO that is equal to or greater than the wake-up delay. All UEs that support LP-WUS for idle / inactive mode may support the configuration of two offset values ​​(or even three offset values).

[0051] Regarding LO to PO mapping from the network perspective, UEs corresponding to different POs may monitor the same LO. The maximum number of codepoints per LO / LP-WUS may not increase. FFS conditions / restrictions may be specified for mapping multiple POs to one LO. The maximum number of POs per LO may be down-selected between 2 and 4.

[0052] In NR, one PO is monitored per DRX cycle. The UE monitors the (i_s+1)th PO in the PF. The SFN of the PF is determined as follows:

[0053] PF = (SFN+PF_offset) mod T = (T div N)×(UE_ID mod N)

[0054] SFN: System Frame Number PF_offset: The offset used to determine the PF T: Default value or UE-specific DRX cycle T = {36, 64, 128, 256} [radio frame], or eDRX = {256, 512, 1024} [radio frame] N: Total number of paging frames per T {T, T / 2, T / 4, T / 8, T / 16} UE_ID: 5G-S-TMSI mod 1024 or 5G-S-TMSI mod 4096 for eDRX

[0055] Index(i_s) indicates the index of the PO and is determined as follows:

[0056] i_s:floor(UE_ID / N) mod Ns Ns: Number of POs per PF {1,2,4}

[0057] Figure 7 is a diagram showing an example of PEI in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 7, for Paging Early Indication (PEI), UEs monitoring paging within the same PO are divided into subgroups. For each subgroup, there is a Paging Early Indication (PEI) to inform the UE whether it needs to further monitor paging. If the PEI is not received, the UE will not monitor paging. There are two methods for PEI subgrouping: UE-ID based subgrouping and CN controlled subgrouping.

[0058] The UE monitors one PEI opportunity per DRX cycle. The reference point for the time location of the PEI-O for the UE's PO is provided by pei-FrameOffset in SIB1.

[0059] pei-FrameOffset is the offset in frames from the start of the reference frame of the PEI-O (PEI occasion) to the start of the first paging frame of the paging frames associated with the PEI-O.

[0060] The maximum number of PFs associated with one PEI monitoring occasion is two. If one PEI-O is associated with two PFs, the two PFs are consecutive PFs. The first PF associated with the PEI-O is is given by (SFN for PF)-floor(iPO / Ns)×T / N, where i PO =((UE_ID mod N)·N s +i s )mod N PO PEI is.

[0061] The offset is the symbol level offset from the reference point to the start of the first PDCCH MO of this PEI-O, provided by firstPDCCH-MonitoringOccasionOfPEI-O in SIB1.

[0062] The association between the PO and the LO may be resolved. The frame index of the first PF associated with one LO may be determined. The association between the PO and the MO may be resolved. The PO associated with one LO may be determined. The MO index to be monitored within one LO may be determined.

[0063] An LO is an LP-WUS occasion, which is defined for LP-WUS monitoring. Each LO consists of multiple LP-WUS monitoring occasions (MOs).

[0064] PO is a paging occasion, and PF is a paging frame.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present invention, the index may start from 0 or 1.

[0066] Below, details of operation 1) associating the LO with the PO and details of operation 2) associating the MO with the PO will be explained.

[0067] 8 is a flowchart showing an example of monitoring in an embodiment of the present invention. In step S101, a PO to be monitored is determined based on the LO and MO that received the LP-WUS. In step S102, the determined PO is monitored to receive paging.

[0068] Details of operation 1) associating LO and PO will be explained below.

[0069] A) One or more of the following parameters 1)-4) may be notified to the UE.

[0070] 1) The number of POs associated with one LO, e.g., po_NumPerLO. The number of POs associated with one LO is a factor of the total number of POs in a paging cycle, i.e., N×Ns. If the number of POs associated with one LO is greater than the number of POs per PF, the number of POs associated with one LO may be a multiple of Ns. The number of PFs associated with one LO is less than the maximum value N_PF_max, e.g., N_PF_max=4. The number of PFs associated with one LO is an integer value, e.g., has possible values ​​of {1, 2, 3, 4}.

[0071] 2) The number of POs in a PF, e.g., po_NumPerPF. 3) The number of PFs associated with one LO, e.g., pf_NumPerLO. 4) The index of the PO associated with one LO that the UE monitors, e.g., i_POinLO.

[0072] B) The determination of the SFN of the first PF associated with the LO may be performed as part or all of 1)-3) below.

[0073] 1) When one LO is associated with POs of multiple PFs, the multiple PFs are consecutive PFs.

[0074] 2) The first PF among the PFs associated with one LO may be determined by paging and LO-related parameters. For example, the first PF among the PFs associated with the LO may be determined by It may also be (SFN for PF)-floor(i_POinLO / Ns)×T / N. T: UE DRX cycle Total number of paging frames in N:T PF_offset: Offset used for PF determination Ns: Number of paging opportunities -SFN for PF: SFN of UE's PF i_POinLO: the index of the PO associated with one LO monitored by the UE. To derive i_POinLO, one may refer to operation 2B described below.

[0075] 3) The UE may determine an associated LO based on the SFN of the first PF of the consecutive PFs and the offset between the LO and the SFN.

[0076] Details of operation 2) associating MO and PO will be explained below.

[0077] A) The payload of the LO may be designed as follows:

[0078] If an LO is associated with multiple POs, one or more of the following options for payload design may be applied: Option 1: One MO in an LO indicates codepoints for a subset of the subgroups of one associated PO. Option 2: One MO in an LO indicates the code points of all subgroups of one associated PO. Option 3: One MO in an LO indicates the codepoints of all subgroups of one, several or all associated POs of one PF. Option 4: One MO in an LO indicates the codepoints for all subgroups of all associated POs. Option 5: The above options can be set by instruction from the base station.

[0079] For example, the number of MOs (X_MO) having different LP-WUS information for one beam of one LO may be determined by one or more of the following options: Option 1: X_MO = subset_NumPerPO × po_NumPerLO Option 2: X_MO=po_NumPerLO Option 3: X_MO=pf_NumPerLO Option 4: X_MO=1 Note that subset_NumPerPO is the number of subsets of the subgroups of one PO. X_MO is an integer greater than or equal to 1. For other parameters, refer to the definition of operation 1).

[0080] If an LO is associated with one PO, then option 1 or option 2 or option 3 above may be used.

[0081] The following variations may also be applied.

[0082] Variation 1: For options 2, 3, and 4, the subgroup of one PO can be divided into multiple subsets. The code points of each subset can be represented by a bit block. In that case, the MO contains multiple bit blocks, and each bit block is associated with one subgroup subset of one PO. For option 2, there are subset_NumPerPO bit blocks in one MO. For option 3, there are po_NumPerPF x subset_NumPerPO bit blocks in one MO. For option 4, there are po_NumPerLO x subset_NumPerPO bit blocks in one MO. Note that the bit block of variation 1 is used to indicate the code point of the LP-WUS information for a subset of the subgroups of one PO.

[0083] Variation 2: For options 3 and 4, all subgroups of one PO are indicated by a bit block. In that case, a codepoint in an MO contains multiple bit blocks, each associated with all subgroups of one PO. For option 4, there are po_NumPerPF bit blocks in one MO. For option 5, there are po_NumPerLO bit blocks in one MO. Note that the bit block of variant 2 is used to indicate the code points of the LP-WUS information for all subgroups of one PO.

[0084] It is also possible to apply both Variation 1 and Variation 2.

[0085] B) Determining the PO index in the LO may be performed as follows:

[0086] The UE may determine its PO index with LO (eg, i_POinLO) according to paging and LO-related parameters. i_POinLO=((UE_ID mod N)·Ns+i_s)mod po_NumPerLO, UE_ID is the UE ID. i_s is the PO index within the PF. For other parameters, refer to the definitions of actions 1) and 2).

[0087] C) The association between MO and PO is explained below.

[0088] The UE may determine the MOs in the LO to be monitored using the parameters indicated / derived as actions 1) and 2).

[0089] The LO includes (N_SSB×X_MO×R) MOs. N_SSB is the number of SSBs actually transmitted. X_MO is the number of MOs with different LP-WUS information in one beam, and the values ​​of X_MO for different options are provided in Proposal 2A). R is the number of MO repeats. R is an integer, R≧1, and if there are no repeats, R=1.

[0090] The UE may identify the index of the MO (eg, the xth MO) within X_MO using the parameters indicated / derived as operations 1) and 2). Option 1: x = i_POinLO × subset_NumPerPO + i_subset i_subset is the subset index of the UE's subgroup. The subset index of a subgroup of a UE may be determined by the subgroup ID and / or subgroup number of the UE. Option 2: x=i_POinLO Option 3: x = floor(i_POinLO / Ns), where Ns is the number of POs per PF. Option 3 here indicates that one MO in a LO represents all subgroup codepoints of all associated POs of one PF. Option 4: x=0 (first MO in X_MO MOs)

[0091] The (F)th MO in the LO corresponding to the rth iteration, the nth transmitted SSB, and the xth MO among the X_MO MOs may be determined as follows:

[0092] The (F)th MO may be determined by mapping ordering of the MOs, taking into account different SSBs, different LP-WUS information, and repetition.

[0093] For example, Alt.1:(F)th may be [X_MO×N_SSB×r+X_MO×n+x]th. First, locate the MOs of different LP-WUS information, and then in the last iteration, locate the MOs of different beams.

[0094] For example, Alt.2:(F)th may be [X_MO×N_SSB×r+N_SSB×x+n]th. First locate MOs of different beams, then in the last iteration locate MOs of different LP-WUS information.

[0095] D) The association between the MO bit and the PO may be determined as follows:

[0096] The UE identifies the bit blocks within the identified MO to be monitored using the parameters indicated / derived as actions 1) and 2). For options 1 and 2 of action 2A, there can only be one bit block in the MO. After identifying the MO in the LO as in action 2C), the codepoint of the MO is applied to the UE.

[0097] Variations that take into account repetition within an MO may be specified as follows: There can be multiple bit blocks in an MO, and these bit blocks contain the same information for repetition. The number of repetitions in the MO (eg, num_RepInMO) may be indicated to the UE. ·num_RepInMO is smaller than the maximum value max_RepInMO, for example max_RepInMO=4. num_RepInMO is an integer value that can take on values ​​of {1, 2, 3, 4}, for example.

[0098] For options 3 and 4 of operation 2A, there can be multiple bit blocks in the MO. Each bit block corresponds to a code point of one PO. The UE may identify the bit block index in the MO and then apply the code point of the identified bit block for the UE. The MO contains Y_Block bit blocks. For Option 3: Y_Block = Ns (i.e., number of POs per PF) For option 4: Y_Block = Ns * pf_NumPerLO (i.e., number of POs per PF * number of PFs per LO).

[0099] The following iteration variations within an MO may be specified: For Option 3: Y_Block = Ns × num_RepInMO (i.e., num_RepInMO is the number of repetitions in MO) For option 4: Y_Block = Ns × pf_NumPerLO × num_RepInMO.

[0100] The UE can identify the bit block index (eg, the y-th bit block) within the MO by using what is shown / derived as action 1) and action 2). For option 3: y = i_s (i.e., PO index within PF) For option 4: y = i_POinLO (i.e., PO index within LO)

[0101] The following iteration variations within an MO may be specified:

[0102] Regarding option 3: Alt.1: y = (i_s × num_RepInMO + r)th bit block, the bit block of (i_s)PO with the rth repetition, r = 0, 1,., num_RepInMO-1. Alt.2: y = (r × Ns + i_s)th bit block, bit block of (i_s)PO with rth repetition, r = 0, 1,.,num_RepInMO-1.

[0103] Option 4: y=i_POinLO Alt.1: y = (i_POinLO × num_RepInMO + r)th bit block, the bit block of the i_POinLOth PO with the rth repetition, r = 0, 1,.,num_RepInMO-1. Alt.2: y = (r × po_NumPerLO + i_POinLO)th bit block, the bit block of (i_s)PO with the rth repetition, r = 0, 1,.,num_RepInMO-1.

[0104] The encoding and rate matching may be performed as follows.

[0105] Alt. 1: Each bit block undergoes separate coding and rate matching. The bits of each bit block are derived using coding and rate matching. When detecting LP-WUS bits, the UE first identifies the OOK waveform corresponding to the bit block. Then it performs decoding and de-rate matching on the identified OOK waveform. It applies the code point signaled by the decoding bits and de-rate matching bits.

[0106] Alt. 2: All bit blocks in an MO undergo joint coding and rate matching. The bits of all bit blocks are processed using coding and rate matching. When detecting an LP-WUS bit, the UE first performs decoding and de-rate matching on all bits of the MO, and then identifies the bit block from the decoding and de-rate matching bits. It applies the code point indicated by the bit block.

[0107] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example (1) of monitoring in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 9, two offset associations between LOs and POs may be configured in the UE. One LO may be associated with four POs in two PFs. By operation 2B), the UE may determine a PO index associated with a certain LO based on parameters related to paging and LO (e.g., i_POinLO).

For example, the communication module 2013 transmits and receives data via the communication port 2033 to and from the drive unit 2002, steering unit 2003, accelerator pedal 2004, brake pedal 2005, shift lever 2006, front wheels 2007, rear wheels 2008, axle 2009, microprocessor 2031 and memory (ROM, RAM) 2032 in the electronic control unit 2010, and sensors 2021 to 29, which are provided in the vehicle 2001.

[0177] The communication module 2013 is a communication device that can be controlled by the microprocessor 2031 of the electronic control unit 2010 and can communicate with an external device. For example, it transmits and receives various information to and from the external device via wireless communication. The communication module 2013 may be located either inside or outside the electronic control unit 2010. The external device may be, for example, a base station, a mobile station, or the like.

[0178] The communication module 2013 may transmit at least one of signals from the above-mentioned various sensors 2021-2028 input to the electronic control unit 2010, information obtained based on the signals, and information based on input from the outside (user) obtained via the information service unit 2012 to an external device via wireless communication. The electronic control unit 2010, the various sensors 2021-2028, the information service unit 2012, etc. may be referred to as input units that accept input. For example, the PUSCH transmitted by the communication module 2013 may include information based on the above-mentioned input.

[0179] The communication module 2013 receives various information (traffic information, traffic signal information, vehicle distance information, etc.) transmitted from external devices and displays it on an information service unit 2012 provided in the vehicle 2001. The information service unit 2012 may be called an output unit that outputs information (for example, outputs information to a device such as a display or speaker based on the PDSCH (or data / information decoded from the PDSCH) received by the communication module 2013). The communication module 2013 also stores the various information received from external devices in a memory 2032 that can be used by the microprocessor 2031. Based on the information stored in the memory 2032, the microprocessor 2031 may control the drive unit 2002, steering unit 2003, accelerator pedal 2004, brake pedal 2005, shift lever 2006, front wheels 2007, rear wheels 2008, axles 2009, sensors 2021 to 2029, etc. provided in the vehicle 2001.

While specific numerical examples have been used to facilitate understanding of the invention, unless otherwise specified, these numerical values ​​are merely examples, and any appropriate values ​​may be used. The division of items in the above description is not essential to the present invention; two or more items may be combined as needed, and items described in one item may apply to items described in another item (unless inconsistent). The boundaries between functional units or processing units in the functional block diagram do not necessarily correspond to the boundaries between physical components. The operations of multiple functional units may be performed by a single physical component, or the operations of a single functional unit may be performed by multiple physical components. The order of the processing steps described in the embodiments may be reversed as long as there is no contradiction. For convenience of processing description, the base station 10 and terminal 20 have been described using functional block diagrams. However, such devices may be implemented using hardware, software, or a combination thereof.

[0185] The order of the procedures, sequences, flowcharts, etc. of each aspect / embodiment described herein may be changed unless it is consistent. For example, the methods described in this disclosure present elements of various steps using an example order and are not limited to the particular order presented.

[0186] In this specification, a specific operation that is described as being performed by the base station 10 may also be performed by its upper node in some cases. In a network consisting of one or more network nodes having the base station 10, it is clear that various operations performed for communication with the terminal 20 may be performed by at least one of the base station 10 and another network node other than the base station 10 (such as, but not limited to, an MME or an S-GW). Although the above example illustrates a case where there is one other network node other than the base station 10, the other network node may be a combination of multiple other network nodes (such as an MME and an S-GW).

[0187] The information or signals described in the present disclosure may be output from a higher layer (or a lower layer) to a lower layer (or a higher layer), or may be input / output via multiple network nodes.

[0188] Input and output information may be stored in a specific location (for example, memory) or may be managed using a management table. Input and output information may be overwritten, updated, or added to. Output information may be deleted. Input information may be sent to another device.

[0189] In the present disclosure, the determination may be made based on a value represented by one bit (0 or 1), a Boolean value (true or false), or a numerical comparison (e.g., comparison with a predetermined value).

[0190] Software shall be construed broadly to mean instructions, instruction sets, code, code segments, program code, programs, subprograms, software modules, applications, software applications, software packages, routines, subroutines, objects, executable files, threads of execution, procedures, functions, etc., whether referred to as software, firmware, middleware, microcode, hardware description language, or otherwise.

[0191] Software, instructions, information, etc. may also be transmitted or received over a transmission medium. For example, if software is transmitted from a website, server, or other remote source using wired technologies (such as coaxial cable, fiber optic cable, twisted pair, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)), and / or wireless technologies (such as infrared, microwave), then these wired and / or wireless technologies are included within the definition of transmission media.

[0192] The information, signals, etc. described in this disclosure may be represented using any of a variety of different technologies. For example, data, instructions, commands, information, signals, bits, symbols, chips, etc. that may be referred to throughout the above description may be represented by voltages, currents, electromagnetic waves, magnetic fields or magnetic particles, optical fields or photons, or any combination thereof.

[0193] Note that terms explained in this disclosure and terms necessary for understanding this disclosure may be replaced with terms having the same or similar meanings. For example, at least one of a channel and a symbol may be a signal (signaling). Furthermore, a signal may be a message. Furthermore, a component carrier (CC) may be called a carrier frequency, a cell, a frequency carrier, etc.

[0194] As used in this disclosure, the terms "system" and "network" are used interchangeably.

[0195] Furthermore, the information, parameters, etc. described in the present disclosure may be expressed using absolute values, may be expressed using relative values ​​from a predetermined value, or may be expressed using other corresponding information. For example, a radio resource may be indicated by an index.

[0196] The names used for the above-described parameters are not intended to be limiting in any way. Furthermore, the mathematical expressions using these parameters may differ from those explicitly disclosed in this disclosure. The various channels (e.g., PUCCH, PDCCH, etc.) and information elements may be identified by any suitable names, and therefore the various names assigned to these various channels and information elements are not intended to be limiting in any way.

[0197] In the present disclosure, terms such as "base station (BS)," "radio base station," "base station device," "fixed station," "NodeB," "eNodeB (eNB)," "gNodeB (gNB)," "access point," "transmission point," "reception point," "transmission / reception point," "cell," "sector," "cell group," "carrier," and "component carrier" may be used interchangeably. Base stations may also be referred to by terms such as macrocell, small cell, femtocell, and picocell.

[0198] A base station can accommodate one or more (e.g., three) cells. When a base station accommodates multiple cells, the overall coverage area of ​​the base station can be divided into multiple smaller areas, and each smaller area can be provided with communication service by a base station subsystem (e.g., a small indoor base station (RRH: Remote Radio Head)). The term "cell" or "sector" refers to a part or the entire coverage area of ​​a base station and / or base station subsystem that provides communication service within this coverage.

[0199] In the present disclosure, the base station transmitting information to a terminal may be interpreted as the base station instructing the terminal to control or operate based on the information.

[0200] In this disclosure, the terms "Mobile Station (MS)," "user terminal," "User Equipment (UE)," "terminal," etc. may be used interchangeably.

[0201] A mobile station may also be referred to by those skilled in the art as a subscriber station, mobile unit, subscriber unit, wireless unit, remote unit, mobile device, wireless device, wireless communication device, remote device, mobile subscriber station, access terminal, mobile terminal, wireless terminal, remote terminal, handset, user agent, mobile client, client, or some other suitable terminology.

[0202] At least one of the base station and the mobile station may be referred to as a transmitting device, a receiving device, a communication device, etc. At least one of the base station and the mobile station may be a device mounted on a mobile object, the mobile object itself, etc. The mobile object refers to a movable object, and may move at any speed. Naturally, this also includes cases where the mobile object is stationary. Examples of the mobile object include, but are not limited to, vehicles, transport vehicles, automobiles, motorcycles, bicycles, connected cars, excavators, bulldozers, wheel loaders, dump trucks, forklifts, trains, buses, handcars, rickshaws, ships and other watercraft, airplanes, rockets, satellites, drones (registered trademark), multicopters, quadcopters, balloons, and objects mounted thereon. The mobile object may also be a mobile object that moves autonomously based on an operational command. It may be a vehicle (e.g., a car, an airplane, etc.), an unmanned mobile object (e.g., a drone, an autonomous vehicle, etc.), or a robot (manned or unmanned). At least one of the base station and the mobile station may be a device that does not necessarily move during communication operations. For example, at least one of the base station and the mobile station may be an IoT (Internet of Things) device such as a sensor.

[0203] Furthermore, a base station in the present disclosure may be read as a user terminal. For example, the aspects / embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to a configuration in which communication between a base station and a user terminal is replaced with communication between a plurality of terminals 20 (which may be called, for example, D2D (Device-to-Device) or V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything)). In this case, the terminal 20 may be configured to have the functions of the base station 10 described above. Furthermore, terms such as "uplink" and "downlink" may be read as terms corresponding to terminal-to-terminal communication (for example, "side"). For example, terms such as an uplink channel and a downlink channel may be read as a side channel.

[0204] Similarly, the user terminal in the present disclosure may be read as a base station, in which case the base station may be configured to have the functions of the user terminal described above.

[0205] As used in this disclosure, the terms "determining" and "determining" may encompass a wide variety of actions. "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.

[0206] 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.

[0207] The reference signal may be abbreviated as RS (Reference Signal) or may be called a pilot depending on the applicable standard.

[0208] 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."

[0209] 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.

[0210] The "means" in the configuration of each of the above devices may be replaced with "part," "circuit," "device," etc.

[0211] When used in this disclosure, the terms "include," "including," and variations thereof are intended to be inclusive, similar to the term "comprising." Furthermore, when used in this disclosure, the term "or" is not intended to be an exclusive or.

[0212] 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 called 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 is independent of numerology.

[0213] Numerology may be communication parameters that apply to at least one of transmission and reception of a signal or channel, such as subcarrier spacing (SCS), bandwidth, symbol length, cyclic prefix length, transmission time interval (TTI), number of symbols per TTI, radio frame structure, specific filtering operations performed by the transceiver in the frequency domain, and specific windowing operations performed by the transceiver in the time domain.

[0214] 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.

[0215] 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.

[0216] 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.

[0217] 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.

[0218] 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 wireless resources (such as frequency bandwidth and transmission power that can be used by each terminal 20) to each terminal 20 in TTI units. Note that the definition of TTI is not limited to this.

[0219] 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.

[0220] 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.

[0221] 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.

[0222] 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.

[0223] 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.

[0224] 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.

[0225] 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.

[0226] 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.

[0227] 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.

[0228] 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.

[0229] 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."

[0230] 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.

[0231] 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.

[0232] 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."

[0233] Each aspect / embodiment described in this disclosure may be used alone, in combination, or switched depending on the implementation. Furthermore, notification of predetermined information (e.g., notification that "X is true") is not limited to being done explicitly, but may be done implicitly (e.g., by not notifying the predetermined information).

[0234] Although the present disclosure has been described in detail above, it is clear to those skilled in the art that the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments described herein. The present disclosure can be implemented in modified and altered forms without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure as defined by the claims. Therefore, the description of the present disclosure is intended to be illustrative and does not have any limiting meaning on the present disclosure. [Explanation of symbols]
