[0138] Each of the units denoted by reference numerals 10 to 16 in the terminal device 1 may be configured as a circuit. Each of the units denoted by reference numerals 30 to 36 in the base station device 3 may be configured as a circuit.

[0139] The terminal device 1 may perform carrier sense prior to the transmission of a physical signal. Also, the base station device 3 may perform carrier sense prior to the transmission of a physical signal. Carrier sense may be energy detection in a radio channel. Based on the carrier sense performed prior to the transmission of a physical signal, the possibility of transmitting the physical signal may be given. For example, when the amount of energy detected by the carrier sense performed prior to the transmission of a physical signal is greater than a predetermined threshold, the transmission of the physical channel may not be performed, or it may be determined that the transmission is impossible. Also, when the amount of energy detected by the carrier sense performed prior to the transmission of a physical signal is smaller than a predetermined threshold, the transmission of the physical channel may be performed, or it may be determined that the transmission is possible. Also, when the amount of energy detected by the carrier sense performed prior to the transmission of a physical signal is equal to a predetermined threshold, the transmission of the physical channel may or may not be performed. In other words, when the amount of energy detected by the carrier sense performed prior to the transmission of a physical signal is equal to a predetermined threshold, it may be determined that the transmission is impossible, or it may be determined that the transmission is possible.

[0140] The procedure in which the possibility of transmitting a physical channel is given based on carrier sense is also called LBT (Listen Before Talk). A situation in which it is determined that transmission of a physical signal is not possible as a result of LBT is also called a busy state or busy. For example, the busy state may be a state in which the amount of energy detected by carrier sense is greater than a predetermined threshold. Also, a situation in which it is determined that transmission of a physical signal is possible as a result of LBT is also called an idle state or idle. For example, the idle state may be a state in which the amount of energy detected by carrier sense is less than a predetermined threshold.

[0141] In a certain component carrier, New Radio - Unlicensed (NR-U) may be applied. In a certain serving cell, NR-U may be applied. Application of NR-U in a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) may include at least a technique (framework, configuration) including some or all of the following elements A1 to A6. Element A1: A second SS burst set is configured in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element A2: The base station device 3 transmits a second SS / PBCH block in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element A3: The terminal device 1 receives a second SS / PBCH block in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element A4: The base station device 3 transmits a PDCCH in the second type-0 PDCCH common search space set in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element A5: The terminal device 1 receives a PDCCH in the second type 0 PDCCH common search space set in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element A6: An upper layer parameter (e.g., a field included in the MIB) related to the NR-U indicates a first value (e.g., 1).

[0142] In a certain component carrier, NR-U (New Radio - Unlicensed) may not be applied. In a certain serving cell, NR-U may not be applied. The fact that NR-U is not applied in a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) may include at least a technique (framework, configuration) including some or all of the following elements B1 to B6. Element B1: A first SS burst set is configured in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element B2: The base station device 3 transmits a first SS / PBCH block in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element B3: The terminal device 1 receives a first SS / PBCH block in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element B4: The base station device 3 transmits a PDCCH in the first type-0 PDCCH common search space set in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element B5: The terminal device 1 receives a PDCCH in the first type 0 PDCCH common search space set in the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell). Element B6: An upper layer parameter (e.g., a field included in the MIB) related to the NR-U indicates a value (e.g., 0) different from the first value.

[0143] A certain component carrier may be configured in a licensed band. A certain serving cell may be configured in a licensed band. Here, the configuration of a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) in a licensed band may include at least a part or all of the following configurations 1 to 3. Configuration 1: A higher layer parameter indicating that a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) operates in a licensed band is provided, or a higher layer parameter indicating that a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) operates in an unlicensed band is not provided. Configuration 2: A component carrier (or a serving cell) is configured to operate in a licensed band, or a component carrier (or a serving cell) is not configured to operate in an unlicensed band. Configuration 3: A component carrier (or a serving cell) is included in the licensed spectrum, or a component carrier (or a serving cell) is not included in the unlicensed spectrum.

[0144] A licensed band may be a band in which a radio station license is required for a terminal device that is (expected to) operate in the licensed band. A licensed band may be a band in which only terminal devices manufactured by operators (business entities, businesses, organizations, companies) that hold radio station licenses are permitted to operate in. An unlicensed band may be a band in which no channel access procedure is required prior to the transmission of a physical signal.

[0145] The unlicensed band may be a band in which no radio station license is required for a terminal device that is (expected to) operate in the unlicensed band. The unlicensed band may be a band in which terminal devices manufactured by operators who hold radio station licenses and / or some or all of operators who do not hold radio station licenses are permitted to operate. The unlicensed band may be a band in which a channel access procedure is required prior to the transmission of a physical signal.

[0146] Whether NR-U is applied to a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) may be determined based on at least whether the certain component carrier (or the certain serving cell) is configured in a band that can be operated in an unlicensed spectrum (e.g., a band that can be operated only in an unlicensed spectrum). For example, a list of bands designed for NR or NR carrier aggregation may be specified. For example, if a certain band is included in a band in which one or more bands in the list are available in an unlicensed spectrum (e.g., a band that can be operated only in an unlicensed spectrum), NR-U may be applied to the certain band. Also, if a certain band is not included in a band in which one or more bands in the list are available in an unlicensed spectrum (e.g., a band that can be operated only in an unlicensed spectrum), NR-U may not be applied to the certain band, and normal NR (e.g., NR of Release 15, or NR other than NR-U of Release 16) may be applied.

[0147] Whether NR-U is applied to a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) may be determined based at least on whether the component carrier (or the serving cell) is configured in a band in which NR-U can operate (e.g., a band in which only NR-U can operate). For example, if a list of bands for which NR or NR carrier aggregation is designed for operation is specified and one or more bands in the list are specified as bands in which NR-U can operate (e.g., a band in which only NR-U can operate), NR-U may be applied if the band configured for the component carrier (or the serving cell) is one of the one or more bands, and NR-U may not be applied if it is a band other than the one or more bands, and normal NR (e.g., NR of Release 15, or NR other than NR-U of Release 16) may be applied.

[0148] Whether NR-U is applied to a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) may be determined based on information included in system information (e.g., Master Information Block (MIB) or Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH)). For example, if an MIB includes information indicating whether NR-U is applied and the information indicates that NR-U is applied, NR-U may be applied to the serving cell corresponding to the MIB. On the other hand, if the information does not indicate that NR-U is applied, NR-U may not be applied to the serving cell corresponding to the MIB, and normal NR may be applied. Alternatively, the information may indicate whether operation is possible in an unlicensed band.

[0149] A certain component carrier may be set to an unlicensed band. A certain serving cell may be set to an unlicensed band. Here, the setting of a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) to an unlicensed band may include at least a part or all of the following settings 4 to 6. Configuration 4: A higher layer parameter is provided indicating that a certain component carrier (or a certain serving cell) operates in an unlicensed band. Configuration 5: A component carrier (or a serving cell) is configured to operate in an unlicensed band. Configuration 6: A component carrier (or a serving cell) is included in the unlicensed spectrum

[0150] In the following, the description will be made on the assumption that NR-U is applied to a component carrier or that NR-U is not applied to the component carrier. Note that "NR-U is applied to a component carrier" may mean "NR-U is applied to a serving cell," and "NR-U is not applied to a component carrier" may mean "NR-U is not applied to a serving cell."

[0151] For example, when NR-U is not applied to a certain component carrier, the terminal device 1 may receive a first SS / PBCH block. When NR-U is not applied to a certain component carrier, the terminal device 1 may receive a first PDCCH in a first type-0 PDCCH common search space set. When NR-U is not applied to a certain component carrier, the base station device 3 may transmit a first SS / PBCH block. When NR-U is not applied to a certain component carrier, the base station device 3 may transmit a first PDCCH in a first type-0 PDCCH common search space set. The first SS / PBCH block may be received in any of the SS / PBCH block candidates included in the first SS burst set. The first SS / PBCH block may be transmitted in any of the SS / PBCH block candidates included in the first SS burst set.

[0152] The terminal device 1 may multiplex uplink control information (UCI) onto the PUCCH and transmit the same. The terminal device 1 may multiplex UCI onto the PUSCH and transmit the same. The UCI may include at least one of downlink channel state information (CSI), a scheduling request (SR) indicating a request for a PUSCH resource, and hybrid automatic repeat request ACKnowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information for downlink data (Transport block, Medium Access Control Protocol Data Unit: MAC PDU, Downlink-Shared Channel: DL-SCH, Physical Downlink Shared Channel: PDSCH).

[0153] HARQ control for one transport block (TB) may be called an HARQ process. HARQ control can operate in parallel for multiple transport blocks (TBs). Each HARQ process may be associated with an HARQ process identifier.

[0154] The terminal device 1 may associate a PDSCH group identifier (PGI: PDSCH Group ID) with each PDSCH. The PGI of a certain PDSCH may be indicated based at least on a DCI format used for scheduling the PDSCH. For example, a field indicating the PGI (PGI field) may be included in the DCI format. For example, a PDSCH group may be a set of PDSCHs having the same PGI (PDSCH group identifier). A PDSCH group may be one PDSCH, or a set of one or more PDSCHs associated with the same PGI. The number of PDSCH groups set for the terminal device 1 is N group N group may be 1, 2, 3, 4, or any other integer equal to or greater than 0. The number of PDSCH groups that can be set for the terminal device 1 is N group,max For example, for terminal device 1, N group,max The number of PDSCH groups may be set according to the following integer values: N group , and / or may be set based at least on RRC parameters.

[0155] The PGI field is a general term for the first PGI field and the second PGI field. The terminal device 1 may determine a PDSCH group to which a certain PDSCH is linked based at least on a value of the PGI field included in a DCI field used for scheduling the certain PDSCH.

[0156] For example, the second PGI field may be included in DCI format 1_1. For example, the number of bits N PGI,secondmay be 1 or 2. For example, the number of bits N of the second PGI field PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group For example, the number of bits in the second PGI field, N PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group,max For example, the first PGI field may not be included in DCI format 1_0. For example, the first PGI field may be included in DCI format 1_0. For example, the number of bits N of the first PGI field may be PGI,first may be 1 or 2. For example, the number of bits in the first PGI field N PGI,first is ceil(log2(N group For example, the number of bits in the first PGI field N PGI,first is ceil(log2(N group,max )) may be given.

[0157] For example, a DCI format 1_0 that does not include a first PGI field may be set for the terminal device 1, and a DCI format 1_1 that includes a second PGI field may be set. Here, the number of bits N of the second PGI field may be PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group )), where the number of bits N of the second PGI field is PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group )), where the number of bits of the second PGI field N PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group,max)). Here, the PDSCH group of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_0 may be linked to the PDSCH group with the smallest index (for example, the PDSCH group with index 0) among the PDSCH groups set in the terminal device 1. Here, the PDSCH group of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_0 may be linked to the PDSCH group with the largest index (for example, the PDSCH group with index N) among the PDSCH groups set in the terminal device 1. group Here, the PDSCH group of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_0 may be linked to a predetermined PDSCH group (for example, a PDSCH group that is fixed in advance by a description in a specification or the like). Here, the PDSCH group of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_0 may be linked to a predetermined PDSCH group (for example, a PDSCH group that is fixed in advance by a description in a specification or the like). group Here, the PDSCH group of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_1 may be linked to a PDSCH group identified based on at least the value of the second PGI field.

[0158] For example, a DCI format 1_0 including a first PGI field may be set for the terminal device 1, and a DCI format 1_1 including a second PGI field may be set. Here, the number of bits N of the first PGI field may be PGI,first is ceil(log2(N group )), where the number of bits N of the first PGI field is PGI,first is ceil(log2(N group )), where the number of bits N of the first PGI field may be greater than PGI,first is ceil(log2(N group,max )), where the number of bits N of the second PGI field is PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group)), where the number of bits N of the second PGI field is PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group )), where the number of bits of the second PGI field N PGI,second is ceil(log2(N group,max )). Here, the PDSCH group of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_0 may be linked to a PDSCH group specified based on at least the value of the first PGI field. Here, the PDSCH group of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_1 may be linked to a PDSCH group specified based on at least the value of the second PGI field.

[0159] The Requested PDSCH Group (RPG) may be a PDSCH group corresponding to HARQ-ACK information to be transmitted (reported) via the next PUCCH or PUSCH. The Requested PDSCH Group (RPG) may include one PDSCH group or may include multiple PDSCH groups. The RPG indication may be indicated in the form of a bitmap corresponding to each PDSCH group based at least on the DCI format. The RPG may be indicated at least on the basis of an RPGI field included in the DCI format. The terminal device 1 may generate a HARQ-ACK codebook for the indicated RPG and transmit (report) it via the PUCCH or PUSCH.

[0160] The RPGI field is a general term for the first RPGI field and the second RPGI field. The terminal device 1 may determine the request PDSCH group based at least on the value of the RPGI field.

[0161] For example, the second RPGI field may be included in DCI format 1_1. For example, the first RPGI field may not be included in DCI format 1_0. For example, the first RPGI field may be included in DCI format 1_0. For example, the number of bits N of the second RPGI field RPG,second is N group For example, the number of bits in the second RPGI field, N RPG,second is N group,max may be equal to

[0162] For example, a DCI format 1_0 that does not include a first RPGI field may be set for the terminal device 1, and a DCI format 1_1 that includes a second RPGI field may be set. Here, the number of bits of the second RPGI field is N group where the number of bits in the second RPGI field may be equal to N group,max Here, detection of the DCI format 1_0 may trigger transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs linked to the PDSCH group with the smallest index (for example, the PDSCH group with index 0). Here, detection of the DCI format 1_0 may trigger transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs linked to the PDSCH group with the largest index (for example, the PDSCH group with index N group Detection of the DCI format 1_0 may trigger transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs linked to a predetermined PDSCH group (e.g., a PDSCH group that is fixed in advance by a description in a specification or the like). Here, detection ... groupIn one embodiment, the detection of the DCI format 1_1 triggers transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs that are not linked to any of the PDSCH groups. Here, detection of the DCI format 1_1 may trigger transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs that correspond to one or more PDSCH groups indicated based on at least the second RPGI field.

[0163] For example, a DCI format 1_0 including a first RPGI field may be set for the terminal device 1, and a DCI format 1_1 including a second RPGI field may be set. Here, the number of bits of the first RPGI field is N group where the number of bits in the first RPGI field may be equal to N group,max where the number of bits in the second RPGI field may be equal to N group where the number of bits in the second RPGI field may be equal to N group,max Here, detection of the DCI format 1_0 may trigger transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs corresponding to one or more PDSCH groups indicated based at least on the first RPGI field. Here, detection of the DCI format 1_1 may trigger transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs corresponding to one or more PDSCH groups indicated based at least on the second RPGI field.

[0164] The NFI (New Feedback Indicator) field may be a DCI field indicating whether HARQ-ACK information including HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to a transport block of a PDSCH is correctly detected or not. The NFI field may be a field indicating whether to erase (flush) the HARQ-ACK bits stored in a recording medium such as a memory.

[0165] The NFI field is a general term for the first NFI field and the second NFI field.

[0166] For example, a DCI format 1_0 that does not include a first NFI field may be set to the terminal device 1, and a DCI format 1_1 that includes a second NFI field may be set. Here, the number of bits N of the second NFI field may be NFI,second is N group where the number of bits in the second NFI field, N NFI,second is N group,max Here, it may be assumed that the detection of the DCI format 1_0 toggles the NFI of the PDSCH group with the smallest index (for example, the PDSCH group with index 0). Here, it may be assumed that the detection of the DCI format 1_0 toggles the NFI of the PDSCH group with the largest index (for example, the PDSCH group with index N group Here, it may be assumed that the NFI of a predetermined PDSCH group (for example, a PDSCH group that is fixed in advance by a description in a specification or the like) has been toggled upon detection of the DCI format 1_0. Here, it may be assumed that the NFI of a predetermined PDSCH group (for example, a PDSCH group that is fixed in advance by a description in a specification or the like) has been toggled upon detection of the DCI format 1_0. group It may be assumed that the NFI of PDSCH groups has been toggled. Here, the detection of the DCI format 1_0 has groupIt may not be assumed that the NFI of the PDSCH group is toggled. Here, the detection of the DCI format 1_1 may trigger the transmission of one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs corresponding to one or more PDSCH groups indicated based on at least the second NFI field. Here, each bit of the second NFI field included in the DCI format 1_1 may correspond to one PDSCH group.

[0167] For example, a DCI format 1_0 including a first NFI field may be set to the terminal device 1, and a DCI format 1_1 including a second NFI field may be set. Here, the number of bits N of the first NFI field may be NFI,first may be 1, where the number of bits of the second NFI field N NFI,second is N group where the number of bits in the second NFI field, N NFI,second is N group,max Here, the first NFI field included in the DCI format 1_0 may correspond to the PDSCH group with the smallest index (e.g., the PDSCH group with index 0). Here, the first NFI field included in the DCI format 1_0 may correspond to the PDSCH group with the largest index (e.g., the PDSCH group with index N group The first NFI field included in the DCI format 1_0 may correspond to a PDSCH group (PDSCH group of DCI format 1_1-1). Here, the first NFI field included in the DCI format 1_0 may correspond to a predetermined PDSCH group (for example, a PDSCH group that is fixed in advance by a description in a specification or the like). Here, the first NFI field included in the DCI format 1_0 may correspond to a PDSCH group to which a PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format 1_0 is linked. Here, each bit of the second NFI field included in the DCI format 1_1 may correspond to one PDSCH group.

[0168] For example, a DCI format 1_0 including a first NFI field may be set to the terminal device 1, and a DCI format 1_1 including a second NFI field may be set. Here, the number of bits N of the first NFI field may be NFI,first is N group where the number of bits in the first NFI field, N NFI,first is N group,max where the number of bits in the second NFI field, N NFI,second is N group where the number of bits in the second NFI field, N NFI,second is N group,max Here, each bit of the first NFI field included in the DCI format 1_0 may correspond to one PDSCH group. Here, each bit of the second NFI field included in the DCI format 1_1 may correspond to one PDSCH group.

[0169] For example, after a HARQ-ACK bit corresponding to a transport block included in a PDSCH scheduled by a DCI format is transmitted, the terminal device 1 may store a value of an NFI bit corresponding to each PDSCH group indicated by the DCI format. For example, when the terminal device 1 receives a DCI format, the terminal device 1 may store a value of an NFI bit corresponding to each PDSCH group indicated by the DCI format. Here, the received NFI bit may be referred to as an NFI bit indicated by an NFI field included in a DCI format used for scheduling the PDSCH for the PDSCH for the PDSCH. The stored NFI bit may be referred to as an NFI bit already stored in the terminal device 1 before the DCI format used for scheduling the PDSCH for the PDSCH is detected for the PDSCH. For each PDSCH group, an initial value of the value of the stored NFI bit may be set to 0 in advance. The terminal device 1 may compare the value of the received NFI bit with the value of the stored NFI bit to determine whether or not the NFI bit corresponding to the PDSCH group is toggled. When the values ​​of the received NFI bit and the stored NFI bit are different, the terminal device 1 may determine that the NFI bit is toggled. The terminal device 1 may determine that HARQ-ACK information corresponding to a PDSCH group in which the NFI bit (i.e., the received NFI bit) is toggled is detected in the base station device 3, compared to the value of the previously received NFI bit (i.e., the stored NFI bit) for the PDSCH group. For example, when the base station device 3 detects HARQ-ACK information corresponding to a PDSCH group, it may toggle the NFI bit corresponding to the PDSCH group. When the values ​​of the received NFI bit and the stored NFI bit are equal, it may determine that the NFI bit is not toggled. The terminal device 1 may determine that HARQ-ACK information corresponding to a PDSCH group in which the NFI bit (i.e., the received NFI bit) is not toggled is not detected in the base station device 3, compared to the value of the previously received NFI bit (i.e., the stored NFI bit) for the PDSCH group.For example, when the base station device 3 does not detect HARQ-ACK information corresponding to a PDSCH group, the base station device 3 does not need to toggle the NFI bit corresponding to the PDSCH group. Here, toggling means switching to a different value.

[0170] The received NFI may be configured with one or more received NFI bits. Each entry of the received NFI may be a received NFI bit corresponding to each PDSCH group. The stored NFI may be configured with one or more stored NFI bits. Each entry of the stored NFI may be a stored NFI bit corresponding to each PDSCH group.

[0171] When the terminal device 1 generates a HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a certain PDSCH group, if the NFI bit is toggled compared to the value of the previously received NFI bit (i.e., the saved NFI bit) for the PDSCH group, the terminal device 1 may delete (or not include) the already reported HARQ-ACK information (HARQ-ACK information other than the HARQ-ACK information not yet reported) from the HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to the PDSCH group. If there is a PDSCH that has been detected and for which HARQ-ACK information has not yet been reported among the PDSCH group, the terminal device 1 may not delete (or may include) the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH. That is, the terminal device 1 may multiplex the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH into the above-mentioned HARQ-ACK codebook. For one or more HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH group with the NFI bit toggled, the terminal device 1 may flush the already reported HARQ-ACK information and not flush the unreported HARQ-ACK information. Here, flushing means returning the HARQ-ACK information to an initial value (for example, NACK). When the terminal device 1 receives a toggled NFI and then transmits a HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a PDSCH group for that NFI bit, the terminal device 1 generates and transmits a HARQ-ACK codebook using non-flushed HARQ-ACK information (non-reported HARQ-ACK information). When the terminal device 1 receives a non-toggled NFI and then transmits a HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a PDSCH group for that NFI bit, the terminal device 1 generates and transmits a HARQ-ACK codebook using non-flushed HARQ-ACK information (reported HARQ-ACK information and non-reported HARQ-ACK information).

[0172] The terminal device 1 may determine a HARQ-ACK codebook based at least on whether the NFI bit is toggled. The terminal device 1 may determine a HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a certain PDSCH group based at least on whether the stored NFI bit and the received NFI bit corresponding to the certain PDSCH group are toggled.

[0173] The value of K1 (information or parameter indicated by the timing indication field from PDSCH to HARQ feedback) indicated by the DCI format included in the PDCCH may be numerical or non-numerical. Here, the numerical value means a value expressed by a number, and may be a value among {0, 1, 2, ..., 15}. The non-numerical value may mean a value other than a number, or may mean not indicating a number. Hereinafter, the operation of the numerical value of K1 and the non-numerical value of K1 will be described. For example, the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format is transmitted in the base station device 3 in slot n and received in the terminal device 1. When the value of K1 indicated by the DCI format is a numerical value, the terminal device 1 may transmit (report) HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH via PUCCH or PUSCH in slot n+K1. When the value of K1 indicated by the DCI format is non-numerical, the terminal device 1 may postpone the report of HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH. When a non-numeric value of K1 is indicated by a DCI format including scheduling information of a PDSCH, the terminal device 1 may postpone reporting of HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH. For example, the terminal device 1 may store the HARQ-ACK information in a recording medium such as a memory, and not transmit (report) the HARQ-ACK information via the next PUCCH or PUSCH, and may transmit (report) the HARQ-ACK information by triggering transmission of the HARQ-ACK information based at least on a DCI format other than the above-mentioned DCI format.

[0174] The non-numeric value of K1 may be included in the first higher layer parameter sequence. The first higher layer parameter may be the higher layer parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK. The first higher layer parameter may be a higher layer parameter different from the higher layer parameter dl-DataToUL-ACK. The value of K1 may be a value indicated by a PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field included in DCI format 1_0 or DCI format 1_1 in the first higher layer parameter sequence. For example, assuming that the first higher layer parameter sequence is set to {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 15, non-numeric value} and the number of bits of the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field is 3, the code point "000" of the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field may indicate that the value of K1 is 0, the code point "001" may indicate that the value of K1 is 1, and the code point "111" may indicate that the value of K1 is a non-numeric value. For example, assuming that the first higher layer parameter sequence is set to {non-numeric value, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 15} and the number of bits of the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field is 3, then the codepoint “000” in the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field may indicate that the value of K1 is a non-numeric value, the codepoint “001” may indicate that the value of K1 is 0, and the codepoint “111” may indicate that the value of K1 is 15.

[0175] For example, the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field included in DCI format 1_0 may not indicate a non-numeric value. For example, a code point of the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field included in DCI format 1_0 may indicate a non-numeric value. For example, the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field included in DCI format 1_1 may not indicate a non-numeric value. For example, a code point of the PDSCH to HARQ feedback timing indication field included in DCI format 1_1 may indicate a non-numeric value.

[0176] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a correspondence example between a monitoring occasion for a search space set according to one aspect of the present embodiment and a monitoring occasion for a PDCCH. In FIG. 7, the monitoring occasion for the search space set in the primary cell is the first OFDM symbol of a slot, and the monitoring occasion for the search space set in the secondary cell is the first OFDM symbol of a slot and an intermediate OFDM symbol of the slot (for example, OFDM symbol #7). In FIG. 7, the monitoring occasion for the PDCCH corresponds to the first OFDM symbol of slot #n and the intermediate OFDM symbol of slot #n, and the first OFDM symbol of slot #n+1 and the intermediate OFDM symbol of slot #n+1. That is, the monitoring occasion for the PDCCH may be defined as an occasion in which a monitoring occasion for a search space set is set in at least one of one or a plurality of serving cells. Furthermore, the PDCCH monitoring opportunity may correspond to an index of an OFDM symbol in which a monitoring opportunity of a search space set is set in at least one of one or more serving cells.

[0177] In a slot, a monitoring opportunity of a search space set starting from a certain OFDM symbol index may correspond to a monitoring opportunity of a PDCCH starting from the certain OFDM symbol index. A monitoring opportunity of a PDCCH starting from a certain OFDM symbol index may correspond to each of the monitoring opportunities of a search space set starting from a certain OFDM symbol index.

[0178] The terminal device 1 may determine a set of PDCCH monitoring occasions for HARQ-ACK information transmitted in a PUCCH arranged in a slot with index n (slot#n) based on at least a part or all of the value of the timing K1 and the value of the slot offset K0. The set of PDCCH monitoring occasions for HARQ-ACK information transmitted in a PUCCH arranged in a slot with index n is also referred to as a set of PDCCH monitoring occasions for slot n (monitoring occasion for PDCCH for slot#n). Here, the set of PDCCH monitoring occasions includes M PDCCH monitoring occasions. For example, the slot offset K0 may be indicated based at least on the value of a time domain resource allocation field included in a downlink DCI format. The slot offset K0 is a value indicating the number of slots (slot difference) from a slot including a last OFDM symbol in which a PDCCH including a DCI format including a time domain resource allocation field indicating the slot offset K0 is arranged to a first OFDM symbol of a PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format.

[0179] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a configuration example of a set of monitoring opportunities of a PDCCH for slot n according to one aspect of the present embodiment. In FIG. 8, the monitoring opportunity of the search space set in the primary cell is the OFDM symbol at the beginning of the slot, and the monitoring opportunity of the search space set in the secondary cell is the OFDM symbol at the beginning of the slot and an OFDM symbol (e.g., OFDM symbol #7) in the middle of the slot. In FIG. 8, the monitoring opportunity of the search space set in the primary cell is configured to include 801 and 804, and the monitoring opportunity of the search space set in the secondary cell is configured to include 802, 803, 805, and 806. In FIG. 8, DCI format 811 is detected in 802, DCI format 812 is detected in 804, DCI format 813 is detected in 805, and DCI format 814 is detected in 806.

[0180] For example, when it is indicated that HARQ-ACK information is transmitted in slot n based at least on the timing K1 and slot offset K0 indicated by the DCI format 811, the terminal device 1 may determine the PDCCH monitoring opportunity defined at least on the basis of the 801 as the PDCCH monitoring opportunity for slot n. For example, when it is not indicated that HARQ-ACK information is transmitted in slot n based at least on the timing K1 and slot offset K0 indicated by the DCI format 812, and it is not indicated that HARQ-ACK information is transmitted in slot n based at least on the timing K1 and slot offset K0 indicated by the DCI format 813, the terminal device 1 may not determine the PDCCH monitoring opportunity defined at least on the basis of some or all of the 804 and 805 as the PDCCH monitoring opportunity for slot n. For example, if it is indicated that HARQ-ACK information is transmitted in slot n based at least on the timing K1 and slot offset K0 indicated by DCI format 814, terminal device 1 may determine that a PDCCH monitoring opportunity defined based at least on 806 is the PDCCH monitoring opportunity for slot n.

[0181] That is, when a DCI format detected in a monitoring opportunity of any search space set corresponding to a monitoring opportunity of a certain PDCCH triggers transmission of HARQ-ACK information in slot n, the terminal device 1 may determine the monitoring opportunity of the PDCCH as a PDCCH monitoring opportunity for slot n. Also, when a DCI format detected in a monitoring opportunity of a search space set corresponding to a monitoring opportunity of a certain PDCCH does not trigger transmission of HARQ-ACK information in slot n, the terminal device 1 may not determine the monitoring opportunity of the PDCCH as a PDCCH monitoring opportunity for slot n. Also, when a DCI format is not detected in a monitoring opportunity of a search space set corresponding to a monitoring opportunity of a certain PDCCH, the terminal device 1 may not determine the monitoring opportunity of the PDCCH as a PDCCH monitoring opportunity for slot n.

[0182] The PUCCH resource used for transmitting the HARQ-ACK information in slot n may be identified based at least on a PUCCH resource indication field included in a last DCI format among one or more DCI formats detected in a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot n, where each of the one or more DCI formats triggers the transmission of the HARQ-ACK information in slot n. The last DCI format may be a DCI format corresponding to a last index (highest index) among the DCI formats detected in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot n. The indices of the DCI formats in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot n are given in ascending order with respect to the index of the serving cell in which the DCI format is detected, and then in ascending order with respect to the index of the PDCCH monitoring opportunity in which the DCI format is detected. The indices of the PDCCH monitoring opportunities are given in ascending order on the time axis.

[0183] The second upper layer parameter may include an upper layer parameter related to generation and reporting of HARQ-ACK information. A first value in the second upper layer parameter may correspond to a conventional specification in which NR-U is not applied. A second value in the second upper layer parameter may correspond to a specification in which NR-U is applied. The upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook may be an upper layer parameter indicating a type of HARQ-ACK codebook. The upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook may be set to any value of semi-static and dynamic. The upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook may be set to a value of enhancedDynamic-r16. The value of enhancedDynamic-r16 in the upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook may correspond to the application of NR-U. When NR-U is applied, the terminal device 1 may be configured with some or all of the following settings. Here, the configuration of higher layer parameters related to the HARQ-ACK codebook when NR-U is applied may be referred to as NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration. Setting 1: The second upper layer parameters are given Setting 2: The second upper layer parameter is set to the second value. Configuration 3: The upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to enhancedDynamic-r16.

[0184] When the upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to a value of semi-static, the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook may be determined semi-statically in advance based on at least the upper layer parameter when generating the HARQ-ACK codebook. That is, the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook may not depend on the detection state of the actual DCI format. When the upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to a value of dynamic, the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook may be determined dynamically based on at least the counter DAI and / or the total DAI indicated by the detected DCI format when generating the HARQ-ACK codebook. When the upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to a value of semi-static or dynamic, the terminal device 1 may not expect more than one PDSCH group. If the higher layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to the value enhancedDynamic-r16, a HARQ-ACK codebook or sub-codebook may be generated for each PDSCH group. If the higher layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to the value enhancedDynamic-r16, the terminal device 1 may not expect one or more PDSCH groups.

[0185] When the NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration is given, the terminal device 1 may include, for the PDSCH group g linked to the scheduled PDSCH, a PDCCH monitoring opportunity corresponding to a DCI format that at least satisfies condition A1, condition A2, and part or all of condition A3 in a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. The base station device 3 may expect that the HARQ-ACK information that triggered the transmission for the PDSCH group g corresponds to a PDCCH monitoring opportunity after the NFI bit corresponding to the PDSCH group g was last toggled. By determining the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities in the terminal device 1 based at least on the toggle state of the NFI bit instructed by the base station device 3, ambiguity in the recognition of the transmission and reception state of the HARQ-ACK information between the terminal device 1 and the base station device 3 can be avoided, and efficient transmission and reception of the HARQ-ACK information can be realized. Condition A1: HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format is triggered when it is transmitted via the PUCCH in slot n. Condition A2: PDSCH group g is indicated by the PGI field included in the DCI format. Condition A3: The DCI format was detected after the last event that caused the NFI bit corresponding to PDSCH group g to be toggled. Here, an event in which the NFI bit is toggled refers to an event in which the received NFI is toggling compared to the stored NFI.

[0186] Fig. 9 is a diagram showing a configuration example of a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n according to one embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 10 is a diagram showing a configuration example of a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0187] In Fig. 9 and Fig. 10, the shaded blocks indicate PDCCH, the white blocks indicate PDSCH, and the vertical line blocks indicate PUCCH. The arrows from each PDSCH to one of the PUCCHs indicate that the initial transmission of the HARQ-ACK bit corresponding to the transport block included in the PDSCH corresponding to the start point of the arrow is performed in the PUCCH corresponding to the end point of the arrow. Here, the solid arrow indicates that the transmission of the PUCCH is triggered by the DCI format used for scheduling the PDSCH (timing K1 is a numerical value), and the dotted arrow indicates that the transmission of the PUCCH is not triggered by the DCI format used for scheduling the PDSCH (timing K1 is a non-numerical value). In Fig. 9, the absence of an arrow from the PDSCH to the PUCCH does not necessarily mean that the transmission (initial transmission, etc.) of the HARQ-ACK bit corresponding to the transport block included in the PDSCH is not triggered.

[0188] In Figures 9 and 10, it is assumed that terminal device 1 is given an NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration.

[0189] In FIG. 9 , the DCI format used for scheduling PDSCH911 is included in PDCCH901, the DCI format used for scheduling PDSCH912 is included in PDCCH902, the DCI format used for scheduling PDSCH913 is included in PDCCH903, the DCI format used for scheduling PDSCH914 is included in PDCCH904, and the DCI format used for scheduling PDSCH915 is included in PDCCH905.

[0190] In FIG. 9, it is assumed that all PDSCHs are linked to PDSCH group g. The terminal device 1 transmits HARQ-ACK information 931 including HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to transport blocks included in PDSCH 915 and PDSCH 914 via PUCCH 921 in slot n. The terminal device 1 may detect PDCCH 901 and store the received NFI. When the terminal device 1 detects PDCCH 902, the received NFI is indicated by the DCI format included in PDCCH 902. The terminal device 1 may determine that the NFI bit is toggled by comparing the received NFI (value is 1) with the stored NFI (value is 0). After the determination, the terminal device 1 may store the received NFI as the stored NFI. When the terminal device 1 detects PDCCH 903, the received NFI is indicated by the DCI format included in PDCCH 903. The terminal device 1 may determine that the NFI bit is toggled by comparing the received NFI (value is 0) with the stored NFI (value is 1). After the determination, the terminal device 1 may store the received NFI as the stored NFI. When the terminal device 1 detects the PDCCH 904, the received NFI is indicated by a DCI format included in the PDCCH 904. The terminal device 1 may determine that the NFI bit is toggled by comparing the received NFI (value is 1) with the stored NFI (value is 0). After the determination, the terminal device 1 may store the received NFI as the stored NFI. When the terminal device 1 detects the PDCCH 905, the received NFI is indicated by a DCI format included in the PDCCH 905. The terminal device 1 may determine that the NFI bit is not toggled by comparing the received NFI (value is 1) with the stored NFI (value is 1). After the determination, the terminal device 1 may store the received NFI as the stored NFI. The NFI bit toggle event at the time PDCCH 904 is detected is the last NFI bit toggle event until PUCCH 921 is transmitted.The terminal device 1 may include, in a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n, PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to the DCI format from the last NFI bit toggle event to the detection of the last DCI format, for generating the HARQ-ACK information 931. For example, the terminal device 1 may include PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to PDCCH 904 and PDCCH 905 in a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. The NFI bit toggle event is an event in which it is determined that the NFI bit is toggled. The NFI bit toggle event is triggered by the NFI bit included in the DCI format. When the NFI bit (received NFI) included in the DCI format is toggled compared with the stored NFI, the NFI bit toggle event is triggered.

[0191] That is, when the NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration is given, the terminal device 1 may determine a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n based at least on determining (identifying, identifying, recognizing, judging) the last NFI bit toggle event for the PDSCH group g associated with the scheduled PDSCH. For example, the terminal device 1 may include a PDCCH monitoring opportunity after the timing at which the last NFI bit toggle event occurs for the PDSCH group g in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. For example, the terminal device 1 may include a PDCCH monitoring opportunity at the timing at which the last NFI bit toggle event occurs for the PDSCH group g in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. For example, the terminal device 1 may not include a PDCCH monitoring opportunity before the timing at which the last NFI bit toggle event occurs for the PDSCH group g in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n.

[0192] Also, for example, the terminal device 1 may include, for the PDSCH group g, a PDCCH monitoring opportunity after the PDCCH monitoring opportunity where the DCI format related to the last NFI bit toggle event is detected in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. For example, the terminal device 1 may include, for the PDSCH group g, a PDCCH monitoring opportunity where the DCI format related to the last NFI bit toggle event is detected in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. For example, the terminal device 1 may not include, for the PDSCH group g, a PDCCH monitoring opportunity before the PDCCH monitoring opportunity where the DCI format related to the last NFI bit toggle event is detected in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. Here, the DCI format related to the last NFI bit toggle event is a DCI format that triggers the occurrence of the last NFI bit toggle event.

[0193] When the NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration is given, the terminal device 1 may store a HARQ-ACK reporting state for the reception of a PDSCH. The initial value of the HARQ-ACK reporting state may be set in advance to not applicable (N / A), null, or undefined. After receiving a PDSCH, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK reporting state corresponding to the reception of the PDSCH to not reported. When the terminal device 1 is triggered to transmit on an uplink physical channel in which a HARQ-ACK bit corresponding to the reception of a PDSCH is present, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK reporting state to reported. When the terminal device 1 detects that, for a PDSCH reception in which the HARQ-ACK reporting state is already reported, the NFI bit corresponding to the PDSCH group associated with the PDSCH has been toggled compared to the previously received NFI bit, the terminal device 1 may delete the HARQ-ACK reporting state (or set it to an initial value). When the terminal device 1 detects that the NFI bit corresponding to the PDSCH group associated with the PDSCH for which the HARQ-ACK report status is unreported has been toggled compared to the previously received NFI bit, the terminal device 1 may not delete the HARQ-ACK report status (or set it to an initial value). That is, the terminal device 1 may keep the HARQ-ACK report status unreported. For the PDSCH group g associated with the scheduled PDSCH, the terminal device 1 may include a PDCCH monitoring opportunity corresponding to a DCI format that satisfies part or all of the conditions A1, A2, and B1 in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. For the PDSCH group g, the base station device 3 may expect that the HARQ-ACK information that triggered the transmission corresponds to a PDCCH monitoring opportunity for which the NFI corresponding to the PDSCH group g is not toggled (the HARQ-ACK report status is the initial value in the terminal device 1).By determining the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities in the terminal device 1 based at least on the toggle state of the NFI bit instructed by the base station device 3, ambiguity in the recognition of the transmission and reception state of HARQ-ACK information between the terminal device 1 and the base station device 3 can be avoided, thereby enabling efficient transmission and reception of HARQ-ACK information. Condition B1: The HARQ-ACK report status corresponding to the reception of the PDSCH scheduled by the DCI format is unreported or already reported.

[0194] The terminal device 1 does not have to include a PDCCH monitoring opportunity corresponding to a DCI format that does not satisfy at least any of condition A1, condition A2, or condition B1 for a PDSCH group g linked to a scheduled PDSCH in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n.

[0195] In FIG. 9, when the PDCCH 901 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 911 to not reported. After transmitting HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the PDSCH 911, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 911 to reported. When the PDCCH 902 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 911 to an initial value because the NFI bit is toggled. When the PDCCH 902 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 912 to not reported. When the PDCCH 903 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 912 to an initial value because the NFI bit is toggled. When the PDCCH 903 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 913 to not reported. When the PDCCH 904 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 913 to an initial value by toggling the NFI bit. When the PDCCH 904 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 914 to not reported. When the PDCCH 905 is detected, the terminal device 1 may hold the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 914 as reported by not toggling the NFI bit. When the PDCCH 905 is detected, the terminal device 1 may set the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to the PDSCH 915 to not reported. Before PUCCH 921 is transmitted, the HARQ-ACK report states corresponding to PDSCH 911, PDSCH 912, and PDSCH 913 are initial values, the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to PDSCH 914 has been reported, and the HARQ-ACK report state corresponding to PDSCH 915 has not been reported. When generating HARQ-ACK information 931, the terminal device 1 may include a PDCCH monitoring opportunity corresponding to a PDSCH whose HARQ-ACK report state is not yet reported or has been reported, in a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n.For example, the terminal device 1 may include PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to PDSCH 914 and PDSCH 915 in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n. For example, the terminal device 1 may not include PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to PDSCH 911, PDSCH 912, and PDSCH 913 in the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n.

[0196] FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of an indication of the counter DAI and the total DAI according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0197] A Counter DAI indicates, for a PDCCH monitoring opportunity in a serving cell, a cumulative number of PDCCHs detected up to a PDCCH monitoring opportunity in the serving cell in M ​​PDCCH monitoring opportunities (a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n). The Counter DAI may also be referred to as a C-DAI. A Total DAI may indicate, for a PDCCH monitoring opportunity in M ​​PDCCH monitoring opportunities (a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n), a cumulative number of PDCCHs detected up to a PDCCH monitoring opportunity in the serving cell in M ​​PDCCH monitoring opportunities (or a value at least related to the cumulative number). The Total DAI may also be referred to as a Total Downlink Assignment Index (T-DAI).

[0198] The DAI field is a general term for the first DAI field and the second DAI field. The separate group DAI field is a general term for the first separate group DAI field and the second separate group DAI field. The separate group DAI field used to generate a HARQ-ACK codebook for a certain PDSCH may be included in a DCI format used for scheduling a PDSCH group different from a PDSCH group linked to the PDSCH. For example, the separate group DAI field may be a separate group DAI field included in the DCI format.

[0199] For example, when one serving cell is configured and the upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to a value of dynamic, the number of bits of the second DAI field may be 2, and the second DAI field may indicate a counter DAI. That is, the 2 bits of the second DAI field may be a counter DAI. When more than one serving cell is configured and the upper layer parameter pdsch-HARQ-ACK-Codebook is set to a value of dynamic, the number of bits of the second DAI field may be 4, and the 2 most important bits (MSBs) of the second DAI field may indicate a counter DAI, and the 2 least significant bits (LSBs) of the second DAI field may indicate a total DAI. That is, the 2 MSBs of the second DAI field may be a counter DAI. That is, the 2 LSBs of the second DAI field may be a total DAI.

[0200] The total DAI used to generate a HARQ-ACK codebook for a certain PDSCH may be indicated by some or all of the bits of a second DAI field included in a DCI format used for scheduling a PDSCH group different from a PDSCH group associated with the PDSCH. For example, the total DAI may be indicated by one MSB, two MSBs, or three MSBs of the second DAI field. For example, the total DAI may be indicated by one LSB, two LSBs, or three LSBs of the second DAI field.

[0201] The following describes the indication of the counter DAI and the total DAI. In FIG. 11, the arrows directed from each of the DAI field (DAI field) and the other group DAI field (OG-DAI field) to either the counter DAI (C-DAI) or the total DAI (T-DAI) indicate that the counter DAI or the total DAI is indicated by the DAI field or the other group DAI field. The number of bits of the other group DAI field may be 1 (i.e., may be set to 1). The number of bits of the other group DAI field may be 2 (i.e., may be set to 2). The number of bits of the other group DAI field may be 3 (i.e., may be set to 3). The number of bits of the other group DAI field may be the number of bits used to indicate the counter DAI (i.e., may be set to the number of bits used to indicate the counter DAI). The number of bits of the other group DAI field may be given by an upper layer parameter.

[0202] In FIG. 11, the counter DAI may be indicated by the first DAI field or the second DAI field. The total DAI may be indicated by the different group DAI field. When the number of bits of the second DAI field is 2, the counter DAI may be indicated by the second DAI field. When the number of bits of the second DAI field is 4, the counter DAI may be indicated by the most important bits (MSBs) of 2 bits of the second DAI field. When the number of bits of the second DAI field is 4, the total DAI may be indicated by the least significant bits (LSBs) of 2 bits of the second DAI field. For example, when one serving cell is configured and NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration is not provided, the counter DAI may be indicated by the first DAI field or the second DAI field. For example, when one serving cell is configured and NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration is not provided, the total DAI does not need to be indicated. For example, if one serving cell is configured, and NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration is given, and multiple PDSCH groups are scheduled, the total DAI may be indicated by the separate group DAI field.

[0203] 10 and 11, the instruction of the total DAI by the different group DAI field in the retransmission of the HARQ-ACK codebook for the PDSCH 1011 via the PUCCH 1022 will be described. Here, the PDSCH 1011 scheduled by the PDCCH 1001 is linked to the PDSCH group g, and the PDSCH 1012 scheduled by the PDCCH 1002 and the PDSCH 1013 scheduled by the PDCCH 1003 are linked to the PDSCH group h different from the PDSCH group g. The following describes the generation of HARQ-ACK information for the PDSCH group g. The terminal device 1 receives the PDCCH 1001 including the DCI format for scheduling the PDSCH 1011, and transmits the HARQ-ACK information 1031 including the HARQ-ACK bit corresponding to the PDSCH 1011 via the PUCCH 1021. Here, it is assumed that the PUCCH 1021 is not detected in the base station device 3, and the HARQ-ACK information 1031 is retransmitted via the PUCCH 1022. The different group DAI field for the PDSCH 1011 linked to the PDSCH group g may be included in the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1002 and / or the PDCCH 1003 linked to the PDSCH group h. The counter DAI used to generate the HARQ-ACK codebook for the PDSCH 1011 may be indicated by the DAI field included in the PDCCH 1001. The total DAI used to generate the HARQ-ACK codebook for the PDSCH 1011 may be indicated by the DAI field included in the PDCCH 1001. The total DAI used to generate the HARQ-ACK codebook for the PDSCH 1011 may be indicated by the different group DAI field.

[0204] 12, 13, and 14 are diagrams showing an example of a procedure for configuring a HARQ-ACK codebook (a codebook of HARQ-ACK information) according to one aspect of the present embodiment. <ax>is also referred to as step AX. In FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14, "A=B" may mean that A is set to B. In FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14, "A=B" may mean that B is input to A. The terminal device 1 generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the procedures described in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14. When the NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration is given, the terminal device 1 may generate a HARQ-ACK codebook for each PDSCH group based on the procedures described in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14, and when multiple HARQ-ACK codebooks are generated, the multiple HARQ-ACK codebooks may be concatenated.

[0205] The HARQ-ACK codebook may be provided based at least on some or all of steps A1 to A58.

[0206] The HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a certain PDSCH group may be determined based on at least some or all of steps A1 to A46. The HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a certain PDSCH group may be determined based on one or more HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to one or more transport blocks included in one or more PDSCHs included in the certain PDSCH group.

The PUCCH transmission opportunity (PUCCH transmission occasion) may be a transmission opportunity for the terminal device 1 to attempt to transmit a PUCCH used to report HARQ-ACK information for a PDSCH. The PUCCH transmission opportunity for the PDSCH may be indicated based on at least a timing K1 indicated by a DCI format that schedules the PDSCH. The terminal device 1 may transmit a PUCCH according to a result of the LBT at the PUCCH transmission opportunity.

[0275] FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an example of generation of HARQ-ACK information.

[0276] In Fig. 15 and Fig. 16, the shaded blocks indicate PDCCH, the white blocks indicate PDSCH, and the vertically lined blocks indicate PUCCH or PUCCH transmission occasions. The arrows pointing from each of the PDSCHs to either the PUCCH or the PUCCH transmission occasions indicate that the initial transmission of the HARQ-ACK bit corresponding to the transport block included in the PDSCH corresponding to the start point of the arrow is performed in the PUCCH or PUCCH transmission occasion corresponding to the end point of the arrow. Here, the solid arrow indicates that the transmission of the PUCCH or the PUCCH transmission at the PUCCH transmission occasion is triggered by the DCI format used for scheduling the PDSCH (the timing K1 is a numerical value). In Fig. 15, it is assumed that the terminal device 1 is given the NR-U HARQ-ACK configuration.

[0277] 15 and 16, a PUCCH transmission opportunity may be defined as a PUCCH transmission opportunity set in a slot indicated by a PDSCH-to-HARQ feedback timing indicator field included in one or more DCI formats detected in a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to the PUCCH transmission opportunity. That is, a PUCCH transmission opportunity in slot n may be provided by one or more DCI formats detected in a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for slot n.

[0278] 15, the slot in which PUCCH 1522 is placed may be indicated by a PDSCH-to-HARQ feedback timing indicator field included in each of PDCCH 1501 and PDCCH 1502. Also, the slot in which PUCCH 1523 is placed may be indicated by a PDSCH-to-HARQ feedback timing indicator field included in each of PDCCH 1503 and PDCCH 1504.

[0279] In FIG. 15, it is assumed that PDSCH 1511 to PDSCH 1514 are linked to PDSCH group g (that is, the same PDSCH group). After PUCCH transmission opportunity 1521, terminal device 1 receives PDCCH 1501 and receives PDSCH 1511 scheduled by the DCI format included in PDCCH 1501. Here, it is assumed that HARQ-ACK information reported via PUCCH transmission opportunity 1521 is correctly detected in base station device 3, and NFI bit (NFI bit corresponding to PDSCH group g) is toggled in base station device 3, and counter DAI (counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH group g) and / or total DAI (total DAI corresponding to PDSCH group g) are reset. Terminal device 1 receives PDCCH 1502 and receives PDSCH 1512 scheduled by the DCI format included in PDCCH 1502. Here, the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1501 indicates 0 as the NFI bit and 1 as the counter DAI. Here, the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1502 indicates 0 as the NFI bit and 2 as the counter DAI. The terminal device 1 attempts to report (transmit) a PUCCH via a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1522 in order to report HARQ-ACK information for the PDSCH 1511 and the PDSCH 1512. Furthermore, after the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1522, the terminal device 1 receives the PDCCH 1503 and receives the PDSCH 1513 scheduled by the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1503. The terminal device 1 receives the PDCCH 1504 and receives the PDSCH 1514 scheduled by the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1504.For example, if the DCI format included in PDCCH1503 indicates 0 as the NFI bit and 3 as the counter DAI, and the DCI format included in PDCCH1504 indicates 0 as the NFI bit and 4 as the counter DAI, the terminal device 1 may assume, based on the NFI bit, that the HARQ-ACK information for PDSCH1511 and PDSCH1512 is not correctly detected (decoded) in the base station device 3. That is, in such a case, the base station device 3 may continue to accumulate the values ​​of the counter DAI and / or the total DAI without toggling the NFI bit corresponding to PDSCH group g indicated by the DCI formats included in each of PDCCH1501 to PDCCH1504. Also, in such a case, the terminal device 1 may report (transmit) HARQ-ACK information for PDSCH 1511, PDSCH 1512, PDSCH 1513, and PDSCH 1514 via a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523. The base station device 3 receives the HARQ-ACK information via a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1521 and toggles the NFI bit. The base station device 3 transmits a PDCCH 1501 used for scheduling PDSCH 1511, and indicates an NFI of 0 and a counter DAI of 1 according to the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1501. The base station device 3 transmits a PDCCH 1502 used for scheduling PDSCH 1512, and indicates an NFI of 0 and a counter DAI of 2 according to the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1502. The base station apparatus 3 transmits a PDCCH 1503 used for scheduling the PDSCH 1513, and indicates an NFI of 0 and a counter DAI of 3 according to the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1503. The base station apparatus 3 transmits a PDCCH 1504 used for scheduling the PDSCH 1514, and indicates an NFI of 0 and a counter DAI of 4 according to the DCI format included in the PDCCH 1504.

The size (length, number of bits) of the first HARQ-ACK codebook may be determined based at least on the total DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1512. Here, for example, the number of bits X of the first HARQ-ACK codebook may be 2.

Here, for example, the number of bits of the second HARQ-ACK codebook may be 4. The terminal device 1 may delete X bits from the beginning of the second HARQ-ACK codebook. For example, 2 bits may be deleted from the beginning of the 4-bit second HARQ-ACK codebook. The terminal device 1 may report (transmit) HARQ-ACK information including at least the first HARQ-ACK codebook and the second HARQ-ACK codebook from which the leading X bits have been deleted, via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523. For example, 4-bit HARQ-ACK information including the 2-bit first HARQ-ACK codebook and the 2-bit second HARQ-ACK codebook may be reported (transmitted) via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523. The base station device 3 may receive the above-mentioned 4-bit HARQ-ACK information via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523.

Here, for example, the number of bits X of the first HARQ-ACK codebook may be 2. The terminal device 1 may generate a second HARQ-ACK codebook by the procedure shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 based at least on the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1511, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1512, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1513, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1514, and / or the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1514. The size (length, number of bits) of the second HARQ-ACK codebook may be determined at least based on the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1514. Here, for example, the number of bits of the second HARQ-ACK codebook may be 4. The terminal device 1 may add bits from the X+1th bit onwards of the second HARQ-ACK codebook to the first HARQ-ACK codebook, and report (transmit) the generated HARQ-ACK information via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523. For example, the third bit (the third MSB) and the fourth bit (the fourth MSB) of the second HARQ-ACK codebook may be added to the 2-bit first HARQ-ACK codebook, and a total of 4 bits of HARQ-ACK information may be reported (transmitted) via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523. The base station device 3 may receive the above-mentioned 4-bit HARQ-ACK information via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523.

The terminal device 1 may replace the first bit of the second HARQ-ACK codebook with the first HARQ-ACK codebook, and report (transmit) the generated HARQ-ACK information via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523. The terminal device 1 may replace one or more bits from the beginning of the second HARQ-ACK codebook with one or more bits of the first HARQ-ACK codebook, and report (transmit) the generated HARQ-ACK information via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523.For example, the terminal device 1 may replace the first bit (the first MSB) and the second bit (the second MSB) of the second HARQ-ACK codebook with the first HARQ-ACK codebook, and report (transmit) the updated second HARQ-ACK information as HARQ-ACK information via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1523.

For example, if the DCI format included in PDCCH1606 indicates 0 as the NFI bit and 2 as the counter DAI, and the DCI format included in PDCCH1607 indicates 0 as the NFI bit and 3 as the counter DAI, the terminal device 1 may assume, based on the NFI bit, that HARQ-ACK information for PDCCH1601, PDCCH1602, PDCCH1603, PDCCH1604, and PDCCH1605 is not correctly detected (decoded) in the base station device 3. That is, in such a case, the base station device 3 may continue to accumulate the values ​​of the counter DAI and / or the total DAI without toggling the NFI bit corresponding to PDSCH group g indicated by the DCI format included in each of PDCCH1601 to PDCCH1607.

[0287] FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating an example of generation of HARQ-ACK information.

[0288] The HARQ-AC codebook may be generated according to the procedures shown in Figures 12, 13, and 14. The HARQ-ACK information may be composed of one or more HARQ-ACK codebooks. The HARQ-ACK information may be generated based on one or more HARQ-ACK codebooks.

[0289] In FIG. 17 and FIG. 18, V temp may be a parameter used in the procedure of generating HARQ-ACK information in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14. temp V may be a parameter used in the procedure of generating the HARQ-ACK codebook. temp may be given by the DCI format that schedules the PDSCH. temp may be a variable to which the value of the counter DAI included in the DCI format detected by the PDCCH monitoring opportunity corresponding to the immediately previous PUCCH transmission opportunity is set. j may be a parameter used in the procedure of generating the HARQ-ACK information of Figures 12, 13, and 14. j may be a variable that is given based on the value of the counter DAI included in the DCI format detected by the PDCCH monitoring opportunity corresponding to the immediately previous PUCCH transmission opportunity.

[0290] Vtemp is the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook. ACK may be defined as the remainder of dividing V by a given number (e.g., 4). temp =mod(O ACK , 4). V temp is the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook, ACK j may be defined as the remainder obtained by subtracting the number of HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to the SPS PDSCH from the number of HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to the SPS PDSCH, and dividing the result by the predetermined number. ACK may be defined as the quotient of V divided by a given number (e.g., 4). temp =floor(O ACK , 4). V temp is the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook, ACK Alternatively, the number of HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to the SPS PDSCH may be subtracted from the number of HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to the SPS PDSCH and divided by the predetermined number.

[0291] 16 and 17, the generation of HARQ-ACK information transmitted via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 will be described. The terminal device 1 may generate a HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 by the procedure shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 based at least on the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1611, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1612, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1613, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1614, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1615, and / or the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1615. The size (length, number of bits) of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 may be determined at least based on the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1615. For the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622, the procedure of generating the HARQ-ACK codebook in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 may be used to determine the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701. temp = 1, j = 1, and a 5-bit HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 (first HARQ-ACK codebook) is output. The HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 may be a HARQ-ACK codebook generated for a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to slot n in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 is arranged. The terminal device 1 outputs the output parameters (for example, V temp =1, and j=1). The terminal device 1 may store the output parameters (for example, V temp =1, and j=1) may be stored for a PUCCH transmission opportunity different from the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622. When the NFI bit is not toggled, the terminal device 1 may generate the second HARQ-ACK codebook by referring to the parameters output in generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 (first HARQ-ACK codebook) when generating the second HARQ-ACK codebook. The terminal device 1 may generate the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 by the procedure shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 based at least on the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1616, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1617, and / or the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1616. The size (length, number of bits) of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 may be determined based at least on the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1617. For example, when the terminal device 1 initializes the procedure for generating the HARQ-ACK codebook in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14, the value of the counter DAI (e.g., 2) indicated by the DCI format included in the first received PDCCH (e.g., PDCCH1606) is stored as V temp If the value of j is greater than the value of j (for example, 1), j may be set to the stored value of j (for example, 1), and a 7-bit HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 may be generated by the procedure of generating the HARQ-ACK codebook. The HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 may include at least a HARQ-ACK codebook generated for a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to the slot n in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is arranged. The terminal device 1 may replace (override, replace) the first bit of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 with the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701, and generate the HARQ-ACK information 1703. For example, the terminal device 1 may replace the first to fifth bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 with five bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701, and generate the HARQ-ACK information 1703. For example, the terminal device 1 may replace (override, replace) the Y-th bit from the top of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 with the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 to generate the HARQ-ACK information 1703. Y may be the size (length, number of bits) of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701. Y may be the j and / or V stored temp For example, Y=4×j+V temp For example, the terminal device 1 may replace the first to fifth bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 with five bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 to generate HARQ-ACK information 1703. The terminal device 1 may report (transmit) the HARQ-ACK information 1703 via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623. The base station device 3 may receive the HARQ-ACK information 1703 via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623. Here, the HARQ-ACK codebook or HARQ-ACK information (for example, the HARQ-AC codebook 1701) reported (transmitted) via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 may be referred to as the first HARQ-ACK information or the first HARQ-ACK codebook. The HARQ-ACK codebook (eg, HARQ-AC codebook 1702) generated for the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 may be referred to as a second HARQ-ACK codebook.

[0292] As shown in FIG. 17, the parameters (e.g., V temp , j, O ACK , V s ) may be used to generate a HARQ-ACK codebook based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is located. For example, the parameter V temp In the case where the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is arranged in the slot, the HARQ-ACK codebook generation based on the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities is performed when the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is arranged in the slot. temp may be based at least on the parameter. For example, when the parameter includes at least j, the initial value of j in the generation of the HARQ-ACK codebook based on the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is located may be based at least on the parameter.

[0293] As shown in FIG. 17, a portion of the HARQ-ACK codebook based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for a slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is located may be replaced with a HARQ-ACK codebook (HARQ-ACK codebook 1701) based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for a slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 is located, based at least on parameters used for generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701.

[0294] As shown in FIG. 17, the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 may be given based at least on parameters used to generate a HARQ-ACK codebook (HARQ-ACK codebook 1701) based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 is located.

[0295] 16 and 18, the generation of HARQ-ACK information transmitted via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 will be described. The terminal device 1 may generate the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801 by the procedure shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 based at least on the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1611, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1612, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1613, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1614, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1615, and / or the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1615. The size (length, number of bits) of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801 may be determined based at least on the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1615. Here, it is assumed that the DCI formats included in the PDCCH 1604 and the PDCCH 1605 are not detected. For the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622, V is generated by the procedure of generating the HARQ-ACK codebook of FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. temp = 3, j = 0, and a 3-bit HARQ-ACK codebook 1801 (first HARQ-ACK codebook) is output. The terminal device 1 outputs the output parameters (for example, V temp = 3, and j = 0). When the NFI bit is not toggled, the terminal device 1 may generate the second HARQ-ACK codebook by referring to the parameters output in generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801 (first HARQ-ACK codebook). Here, the terminal device 1 may store V temp If the value of j is equal to or less than the value of j, the stored j may be updated to j+1 (i.e., the stored value of j may be incremented by one). The terminal device 1 may generate a HARQ-ACK codebook 1802 by the procedure shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 based at least on the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1616, the counter DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1617, and / or the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1616. The size (length, number of bits) of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1802 may be determined at least based on the total DAI corresponding to the PDSCH 1617. For example, the terminal device 1 may set j to the stored (updated) j value (e.g., 1) at the time of initialization of the procedure for generating the HARQ-ACK codebook of FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14, and generate a 7-bit HARQ-ACK codebook 1802 by the procedure for generating the HARQ-ACK codebook. The terminal device 1 may replace (override, replace) the first bit of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1802 with the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801, and generate HARQ-ACK information 1803. For example, the terminal device 1 may replace (override, replace) the Y-th bit from the top of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1802 with the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801, and generate HARQ-ACK information 1803. Y may be the size (length, number of bits) of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801. Y is the j and / or V stored in the HARQ-ACK codebook 1802. temp For example, Y=4×j+V temp For example, the terminal device 1 may replace the first to third bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1802 with three bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801 to generate HARQ-ACK information 1803. The terminal device 1 may report (transmit) the HARQ-ACK information 1803 via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623. The base station device 3 may receive the HARQ-ACK information 1803 via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623. Here, the HARQ-ACK codebook or HARQ-ACK information (for example, the HARQ-AC codebook 1801) reported (transmitted) via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 may be referred to as the first HARQ-ACK information or the first HARQ-ACK codebook. The HARQ-ACK codebook (eg, HARQ-AC codebook 1802) generated for the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 may be referred to as a second HARQ-ACK codebook.

[0296] As shown in FIG. 18, the parameters (e.g., V temp , j, O ACK , V s ) may be used to generate a HARQ-ACK codebook based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is located. For example, the parameter V temp In the case where the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is arranged in the slot, the HARQ-ACK codebook generation based on the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities is performed when the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is arranged in the slot. temp may be based at least on the parameter. For example, when the parameter includes at least j, the initial value of j in the generation of the HARQ-ACK codebook based on the set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is located may be based at least on the parameter.

[0297] As shown in FIG. 18, a portion of the HARQ-ACK codebook based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for a slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 is located may be replaced with a HARQ-ACK codebook (HARQ-ACK codebook 1801) based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for a slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 is located, based at least on parameters used for generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1801.

[0298] As shown in FIG. 18, the size of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1802 may be given based at least on parameters used to generate a HARQ-ACK codebook (HARQ-ACK codebook 1801) based on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities for the slot in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 is located.

[0299] The terminal device 1 uses the above-mentioned parameters (V temp , j, O ACK , V s The base station device 3 generates a HARQ-ACK codebook based on the above-mentioned parameters (V temp , j, O ACK , V s The HARQ-ACK information for the transmitted PDSCH is determined based on the received PDSCH.

[0300] 16 and 17, another example of generation of HARQ-ACK information transmitted via a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 will be described. For a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622, V temp = 1, j = 1, and a 5-bit HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 (first HARQ-ACK codebook) is output. The HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 may be a HARQ-ACK codebook generated for a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to slot n in which the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622 is arranged. The terminal device 1 outputs the output parameters (for example, V temp =1, and j=1). The terminal device 1 may store the output parameters (for example, V temp =1, and j=1) may be saved for a PUCCH transmission opportunity different from the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1622. When the NFI bit is not toggled, the terminal device 1 may generate HARQ-ACK information 1703 to be reported in the PUCCH corresponding to the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623 by referring to the parameters output in generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 (first HARQ-ACK codebook) when generating the second HARQ-ACK codebook. For example, the terminal device 1 may generate a 3-bit HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 based at least on a set of PDCCH monitoring opportunities corresponding to the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623. The terminal device 1 may generate HARQ-ACK information 1704 by deleting (or cutting, removing, or trimming) a part or all of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702, or adding one or more bits to the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702. HARQ-ACK information 1703 may be generated by combining the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 and the HARQ-ACK information 1704. The terminal device 1 may report (transmit) the HARQ-ACK information 1703 via a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623. The base station device 3 may receive the HARQ-ACK information 1703 via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623.

[0301] Here, the HARQ-ACK information 1704 is generated based on the parameters (e.g., V temp , j, O ACK , V s For example, based at least on the parameter, some or all of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 may be deleted for generating the HARQ-ACK information 1704. For example, based at least on the parameter, one or more bits may be added to the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 for generating the HARQ-ACK information 1704.

[0302] For example, N1701+N1702>j*4+V temp If so, the last N rm =N1701+N1702-j*4-V temp In this case, N1701 indicates the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701, and N1702 indicates the number of bits of the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702. Also, j is the sum of j1701 output in generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1701 and j1702 output in generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702. Also, V temp is V output in generating the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702. temp Shows.

[0303] For example, N1701+N1702=j*4+V temp If so, then the HARQ-ACK codebook 1702 may be provided as HARQ-ACK information 1704.

[0304] For example, N1701+N1702 <j*4+V temp If so, add N add =j*4+V temp -N1701-N1702 bits may be added. add The value of the bits may be set to indicate a NACK, e.g., add The bits may be set to all zeros.

[0305] For example, N1701+N1702 <j*4+V temp If so, add N add =j*4+V temp -N1701-N1702 bits may be added.

[0306] As a different method, the following process may be performed. In FIG. 16, the terminal device 1 generates a first HARQ-ACK codebook by the procedure shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 based on at least the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1611, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1612, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1613, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1614, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1615, and / or the total DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1615, and attempts to report (transmit) via a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1522. The terminal device 1 generates a second HARQ-ACK codebook by the procedure shown in FIG. 12, FIG. 13, and FIG. 14 based on at least the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1616, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1617, and / or the total DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1617. Next, the terminal device 1 calculates ((Vtemp+1)mod4-1) using the final Vtemp stored for the generation of the first HARQ-ACK codebook. If the value of the above formula is positive, the ((Vtemp+1)mod4-1)th bit is deleted from the beginning of the generated second HARQ-ACK codebook. If the value of the above formula is negative, ((Vtemp+1)mod4-1) bits are added to the beginning of the generated second HARQ-ACK codebook. For the added bits, a bit indicating NAKC is set as HARQ-ACK information. If the value of the above formula is zero, no bits are deleted or added to the generated second HARQ-ACK codebook. After performing the above processing, the terminal device 1 then adds the first HARQ-ACK codebook to the beginning of the second HARQ-ACK codebook. The terminal device 1 reports (transmits), via a PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623, the HARQ-ACK codebook in which the first HARQ-ACK codebook is added to the beginning of the second HARQ-ACK codebook.In Figure 16, a 5-bit first HARQ-ACK codebook is generated based at least on the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1611, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1612, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1613, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1614, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1615, and / or the total DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1615. A 3-bit second HARQ-ACK codebook is generated based at least on the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1616, the counter DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1617, and / or the total DAI corresponding to PDSCH 1617. The final Vtemp stored for the generation of the first HARQ-ACK codebook is 1, and the value of ((Vtemp+1)mod4-1) is 1. Thus, the first bit is deleted from the beginning of the generated second HARQ-ACK codebook to generate a 2-bit second HARQ-ACK codebook. The 5-bit first HARQ-ACK codebook is added to the beginning of the 2-bit second HARQ-ACK codebook to generate a 7-bit HARQ-ACK codebook. The 7-bit HARQ-ACK codebook is reported (transmitted) via the PUCCH transmission opportunity 1623.
