Method and device for performing uplink transmission and reception in a wireless communication system

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a wireless communication system, and more particularly, to a method and device for performing uplink transmission and reception or downlink transmission and reception in a wireless communication system.

[0002] Mobile communication systems were developed to provide voice services while ensuring user activity. However, they have expanded beyond voice to include data services. Currently, explosive growth in traffic is leading to resource shortages and users' demand for higher-speed services, necessitating a more advanced mobile communication system.

[0003] Next-generation mobile communication systems must support explosive data traffic growth, dramatically increasing data rates per user, a vastly increased number of connected devices, ultra-low end-to-end latency, and high energy efficiency. To achieve these goals, various technologies are being studied, including dual connectivity, massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO), in-band full duplex, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), super wideband support, and device networking.

[0071] System General

[0072] As more and more communication devices demand greater communication capacity, the need for improved mobile broadband communications compared to existing radio access technologies (RATs) is emerging. Furthermore, massive machine type communications (MTC), which connects numerous devices and objects to provide diverse services anytime, anywhere, is also a key issue to be considered in next-generation communications. Furthermore, communication system design that considers reliability and latency-sensitive services / terminals is being discussed. Accordingly, the introduction of next-generation RATs that consider enhanced mobile broadband communication (eMBB), massive MTC (MMTC), and ultra-reliable and low latency communication (URLLC) is being discussed. For convenience, these technologies are referred to as NR in this disclosure. NR is an expression representing an example of 5G RAT.

[0073] A new RAT system, including NR, uses OFDM or a similar transmission scheme. The new RAT system may follow OFDM parameters different from those of LTE. Alternatively, the new RAT system may follow the existing LTE / LTE-A numerology but support a larger system bandwidth (e.g., 100 MHz). Alternatively, a single cell may support multiple numerologies. That is, terminals operating under different numerologies can coexist within a single cell.

[0074] A numerology corresponds to a single subcarrier spacing in the frequency domain. Different numerologies can be defined by scaling the reference subcarrier spacing by an integer N.

[0075] Figure 1 illustrates the structure of a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied.

[0076] Referring to Fig. 1, the NG-RAN consists of gNBs that provide NG-RA (NG-Radio Access) user plane (i.e., new AS (access stratum) sublayer / PDCP (packet data convergence protocol) / RLC (radio link control) / MAC / PHY) and control plane (RRC) protocol termination for UE. The gNBs are interconnected via Xn interfaces. The gNBs are also connected to the NGC (New Generation Core) via the NG interface. More specifically, the gNBs are connected to the AMF (Access and Mobility Management Function) via the N2 interface and to the UPF (User Plane Function) via the N3 interface.

[0077] FIG. 2 illustrates a frame structure in a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied.

[0078] NR systems can support multiple numerologies. Numerologies can be defined by subcarrier spacing and cyclic prefix (CP) overhead. Multiple subcarrier spacings can be derived by scaling the base (reference) subcarrier spacing by an integer N (or μ). Furthermore, even if it is assumed that very low subcarrier spacing is not used at very high carrier frequencies, the numerology used can be selected independently of the frequency band. Furthermore, NR systems can support various frame structures corresponding to multiple numerologies.

[0079] Below, we examine OFDM numerologies and frame structures that can be considered in NR systems. The various OFDM numerologies supported in NR systems can be defined as shown in Table 1 below.

[0080] μΔf=2 μ ·15 [kHz]CP015 Normal 130 Normal 260 Normal, Extended 3120 Normal 4240 Normal

[0081] NR supports multiple numerologies (or subcarrier spacing (SCS)) to support various 5G services. For example, when the SCS is 15 kHz, it supports a wide area in traditional cellular bands, when the SCS is 30 kHz / 60 kHz, it supports dense-urban, lower latency, and wider carrier bandwidth, and when the SCS is 60 kHz or higher, it supports a bandwidth larger than 24.25 GHz to overcome phase noise. The NR frequency band is defined by two types of frequency ranges (FR1, FR2). FR1 and FR2 can be configured as shown in Table 2 below. In addition, FR2 can mean millimeter wave (mmW).

[0082] Frequency Range Designation Corresponding Frequency Range Subcarrier Spacing FR1410MHz - 7125MHz 15, 30, 60kHz FR224250MHz - 52600MHz 60, 120, 240kHz

[0083] Regarding the frame structure in the NR system, the sizes of the various fields in the time domain are T c =1 / (Δf max ·N f ) is expressed as a multiple of the time unit. Here, Δf max =480·10 3 Hz, and N f =4096. Downlink and uplink transmissions are T f =1 / (Δf max N f / 100)·T c = It is organized into radio frames with a duration of 10ms. Here, each radio frame is T sf =(Δf max N f / 1000)·T c = It consists of 10 subframes with a duration of 1ms. In this case, there may be one set of frames for uplink and one set of frames for downlink. In addition, transmission in uplink frame number i from a terminal is T earlier than the start of the corresponding downlink frame from the terminal. TA =(N TA +N TA,offset )T c It should start before. For the subcarrier spacing configuration μ, slots are n within a subframe. s μ ∈{0,..., N slot subframe,μ-1} are numbered in increasing order, and n within a radio frame. s,f μ ∈{0,..., N slot frame,μ -1} are numbered in increasing order. One slot is N symb slot It consists of consecutive OFDM symbols, and N symb slot is determined by CP. Slot n in subframe s μ The start of OFDM symbol n in the same subframe s μ N symb slot are aligned temporally with the start of the OFDM signal. Not all terminals can transmit and receive simultaneously, which means that not all OFDM symbols in a downlink slot or uplink slot can be utilized.

[0084] Table 3 shows the number of OFDM symbols per slot in a general CP (N symb slot ), the number of slots per wireless frame (N slot frame,μ ), number of slots per subframe (N slot subframe,μ), and Table 4 shows the number of OFDM symbols per slot in the extended CP, the number of slots per radio frame, and the number of slots per subframe.

[0087] FIG. 2 is an example when μ=2 (SCS is 60 kHz), and referring to Table 3, 1 subframe can include 4 slots. 1 subframe={1,2,4} slots illustrated in FIG. 2 is an example, and the number of slot(s) that can be included in 1 subframe is defined as in Table 3 or Table 4. In addition, a mini-slot can include 2, 4, or 7 symbols, or more or fewer symbols. With respect to physical resources in an NR system, antenna ports, resource grids, resource elements, resource blocks, carrier parts, etc. can be considered. Hereinafter, the physical resources that can be considered in an NR system will be described in detail. First, with respect to antenna ports, antenna ports are defined such that the channel through which a symbol on an antenna port is carried can be inferred from the channel through which another symbol on the same antenna port is carried. Two antenna ports are said to be in a QC / QCL (quasi co-located or quasi co-location) relationship if the large-scale properties of the channel through which a symbol on one antenna port is carried can be inferred from the channel through which a symbol on another antenna port is carried. Here, the large-scale properties include one or more of delay spread, Doppler spread, frequency shift, average received power, and received timing.

[0088] Fig. 3 illustrates a resource grid in a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied. Referring to Fig. 3, the resource grid is N in the frequency domain. RB μ N sc RB It consists of subcarriers, and one subframe is 14·2 μ It is described as an example, but not limited to, that it consists of OFDM symbols. In an NR system, the transmitted signal is N RB μ N sc RB One or more resource grids consisting of subcarriers and 2 μ N symb (μ) is described by OFDM symbols. Here, N RB μ ≤N RB max,μ is. The above N RB max,μ represents the maximum transmission bandwidth, which may vary not only between numerologies but also between uplink and downlink. In this case, one resource grid may be configured for each μ and antenna port p. Each element of the resource grid for μ and antenna port p is referred to as a resource element and is uniquely identified by an index pair (k, l').

[0089] Here, k=0,...,N RB μ N sc RB -1 is the index in the frequency domain, and l'=0,...,2 μ N symb (μ) -1 indicates the position of the symbol within the subframe. When referring to a resource element in a slot, an index pair (k,l) is used. Here, l=0,...,N symb μ-1. The resource element (k,l') for μ and antenna port p is a complex value a k,l' (p,μ) . If there is no risk of confusion or if a particular antenna port or numerology is not specified, the indices p and μ can be dropped, resulting in a complex value of a k,l' (p) or a k,l' This can be. Also, a resource block (RB) is N in the frequency domain. sc RB =12 is defined as consecutive subcarriers.

[0090] Point A serves as a common reference point of the resource block grid and is obtained as follows.

[0091] - offsetToPointA for the Primary Cell (PCell) downlink represents the frequency offset between point A and the lowest subcarrier of the lowest resource block overlapping the SS / PBCH block used by the UE for initial cell selection. It is expressed in resource block units assuming 15 kHz subcarrier spacing for FR1 and 60 kHz subcarrier spacing for FR2.

[0092] - absoluteFrequencyPointA represents the frequency-position of point A expressed as ARFCN (absolute radio-frequency channel number).

[0093] Common resource blocks (CRBs) are numbered from 0 upwards in the frequency domain for a subcarrier spacing setting μ. The center of subcarrier 0 of CRB 0 for a subcarrier spacing setting μ coincides with 'point A'. Common resource block number n in the frequency domain CRB μ The relationship between the resource elements (k, l) and the subcarrier spacing setting μ is given by the following mathematical expression 1.

[0094]

[0095] In Equation 1, k is defined relative to point A such that k = 0 corresponds to the subcarrier centered at point A. Physical resource blocks are numbered from 0 to N within the bandwidth part (BWP). BWP,i size,μ -Numbered from -1, where i is the number of BWP. Physical resource block n in BWP i PRB and common resource block n CRB The relationship between them is given by the mathematical formula 2 below.

[0096]

[0097] N BWP,i start,μ is a common resource block where BWP starts relative to common resource block 0.

[0098] FIG. 4 illustrates a physical resource block in a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied. FIG. 5 illustrates a slot structure in a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied.

[0099] Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, a slot includes multiple symbols in the time domain. For example, in the case of a normal CP, one slot includes seven symbols, but in the case of an extended CP, one slot includes six symbols.

[0100] A carrier comprises multiple subcarriers in the frequency domain. An RB (Resource Block) is defined as multiple (e.g., 12) consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain. A BWP (Bandwidth Part) is defined as multiple consecutive (physical) resource blocks in the frequency domain, and can correspond to a single numerology (e.g., SCS, CP length, etc.). A carrier can comprise up to N (e.g., 5) BWPs. Data communication is performed through activated BWPs, and only one BWP can be activated for a single terminal. Each element in the resource grid is referred to as a Resource Element (RE), to which one complex symbol can be mapped.

[0101] The NR system can support up to 400 MHz per component carrier (CC). If a terminal operating in such a wideband CC always operates with the radio frequency (RF) chip for the entire CC turned on, the terminal battery consumption may increase. Alternatively, when considering multiple use cases operating within a single wideband CC (e.g., eMBB, URLLC, Mmtc, V2X, etc.), different numerologies (e.g., subcarrier spacing, etc.) may be supported for each frequency band within the CC. Alternatively, each terminal may have different maximum bandwidth capabilities. Considering this, the base station can instruct the terminal to operate only in a portion of the bandwidth of the wideband CC, rather than the entire bandwidth. This portion of bandwidth is conveniently defined as the bandwidth part (BWP). A BWP can be composed of consecutive RBs on the frequency axis and can correspond to a single numerology (e.g., subcarrier spacing, CP length, slot / mini-slot interval).

[0102] Meanwhile, a base station can configure multiple BWPs even within a single CC configured for a terminal. For example, a BWP occupying a relatively small frequency domain can be configured in a PDCCH monitoring slot, while the PDSCH indicated by the PDCCH can be scheduled on a larger BWP.

[0103] Alternatively, if UEs are concentrated in a specific BWP, some UEs can be assigned to different BWPs for load balancing. Alternatively, considering frequency domain inter-cell interference cancellation between neighboring cells, some spectrum in the middle of the total bandwidth can be excluded and both BWPs can be assigned within the same slot. In other words, the base station can assign at least one DL / UL BWP to UEs associated with a wideband CC.

[0104] The base station can activate at least one DL / UL BWP among the DL / UL BWP(s) configured at a specific point in time (by L1 signaling or MAC CE (Control Element) or RRC signaling, etc.). In addition, the base station can instruct switching to another configured DL / UL BWP (by L1 signaling or MAC CE or RRC signaling, etc.). Alternatively, switching to a designated DL / UL BWP may be performed when a timer value expires based on a timer. In this case, the activated DL / UL BWP is defined as an active DL / UL BWP. However, since the UE may not receive the configuration for the DL / UL BWP when performing the initial access process or before the RRC connection is set up, the DL / UL BWP assumed by the UE in such a situation is defined as the initially active DL / UL BWP.

[0105] FIG. 6 illustrates physical channels used in a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied and a general signal transmission and reception method using the same.

[0106] In wireless communication systems, terminals receive information from a base station via the downlink and transmit it to the base station via the uplink. The information transmitted and received between the base station and terminals includes data and various control information, and various physical channels exist depending on the type and purpose of the information being transmitted and received.

[0107] When the terminal is powered on or enters a new cell, it performs an initial cell search operation, such as synchronizing with the base station (S601). To this end, the terminal receives a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a secondary synchronization signal (PSS) from the base station to synchronize with the base station and obtain information such as a cell identifier (ID). Afterwards, the terminal can receive a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) from the base station to obtain broadcast information within the cell. Meanwhile, the terminal can receive a downlink reference signal (DL RS) during the initial cell search phase to check the downlink channel status.

[0108] A terminal that has completed an initial cell search can obtain more specific system information by receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) according to information carried in the PDCCH (S602).

[0109] Meanwhile, when accessing a base station for the first time or when there are no radio resources for signal transmission, the terminal may perform a random access procedure (RACH) with the base station (steps S603 to S606). To this end, the terminal may transmit a specific sequence as a preamble via the random access channel (RACH) (steps S603 and S605) and receive a response message to the preamble via the PDCCH and the corresponding PDSCH (steps S604 and S606). In the case of a contention-based RACH, a contention resolution procedure may additionally be performed.

[0110] The terminal that has performed the procedure described above can then perform PDCCH / PDSCH reception (S607) and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) / physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission (S608) as general uplink / downlink signal transmission procedures. In particular, the terminal receives downlink control information (DCI) through the PDCCH. Here, DCI includes control information such as resource allocation information for the terminal, and its format varies depending on its intended use.

[0111] Meanwhile, the control information that the terminal transmits to the base station via the uplink or that the terminal receives from the base station includes downlink / uplink ACK / NACK (Acknowledgement / Non-Acknowledgement) signals, CQI (Channel Quality Indicator), PMI (Precoding Matrix Indicator), RI (Rank Indicator), etc. In the case of the 3GPP LTE system, the terminal can transmit the above-described control information such as CQI / PMI / RI via PUSCH and / or PUCCH.

[0112] Table 5 shows an example of the DCI format in the NR system.

[0113] DCI Format Utilization 0_0 Scheduling of PUSCH within a cell 0_1 Scheduling of one or multiple PUSCH within a cell, or indicating cell group (CG: cell group) downlink feedback information to the UE 0_2 Scheduling of PUSCH within a cell 1_0 Scheduling of PDSCH within a DL cell 1_1 Scheduling of PDSCH within a cell 1_2 Scheduling of PDSCH within a cell

[0114] Referring to Table 5, DCI formats 0_0, 0_1, and 0_2 may include resource information related to scheduling of PUSCH (e.g., UL / SUL (Supplementary UL), frequency resource allocation, time resource allocation, frequency hopping, etc.), transport block (TB) related information (e.g., MCS (Modulation Coding and Scheme), NDI (New Data Indicator), RV (Redundancy Version), etc.), HARQ (Hybrid - Automatic Repeat and request) related information (e.g., process number, DAI (Downlink Assignment Index), PDSCH-HARQ feedback timing, etc.), multi-antenna related information (e.g., DMRS sequence initialization information, antenna port, CSI request, etc.), power control information (e.g., PUSCH power control, etc.), and the control information included in each DCI format may be predefined. DCI format 0_0 is used for scheduling of PUSCH in one cell. Information included in DCI format 0_0 is transmitted with CRC (cyclic redundancy check) scrambled by C-RNTI (cell radio network temporary identifier, Cell RNTI), CS-RNTI (Configured Scheduling RNTI), or MCS-C-RNTI (Modulation Coding Scheme Cell RNTI).

[0115] DCI format 0_1 ​​is used to indicate scheduling of one or more PUSCHs in a cell, or configure grant (CG) downlink feedback information to the UE. The information contained in DCI format 0_1 ​​is CRC-scrambled and transmitted using the C-RNTI, CS-RNTI, SP-CSI-RNTI (Semi-Persistent CSI RNTI), or MCS-C-RNTI.

[0116] DCI format 0_2 is used for scheduling PUSCH in a cell. The information contained in DCI format 0_2 is CRC-scrambled and transmitted using C-RNTI, CS-RNTI, SP-CSI-RNTI, or MCS-C-RNTI.

[0117] Next, DCI formats 1_0, 1_1, and 1_2 may include resource information related to scheduling of PDSCH (e.g., frequency resource allocation, time resource allocation, virtual resource block (VRB)-physical resource block (PRB) mapping, etc.), transport block (TB) related information (e.g., MCS, NDI, RV, etc.), HARQ related information (e.g., process number, DAI, PDSCH-HARQ feedback timing, etc.), multi-antenna related information (e.g., antenna port, transmission configuration indicator (TCI), sounding reference signal (SRS) request, etc.), PUCCH related information (e.g., PUCCH power control, PUCCH resource indicator, etc.), and control information included in each DCI format may be predefined.

[0118] DCI format 1_0 is used for scheduling PDSCH in a DL cell. The information contained in DCI format 1_0 is CRC-scrambled and transmitted using C-RNTI, CS-RNTI, or MCS-C-RNTI.

[0119] DCI format 1_1 is used for scheduling PDSCH in a single cell. The information contained in DCI format 1_1 is CRC-scrambled and transmitted using C-RNTI, CS-RNTI, or MCS-C-RNTI.

[0120] DCI format 1_2 is used for scheduling PDSCH in a single cell. The information contained in DCI format 1_2 is CRC-scrambled and transmitted using C-RNTI, CS-RNTI, or MCS-C-RNTI.

[0121] Quasi-Co Location (QCL)

[0122] Antenna ports are defined such that the channel through which a symbol on an antenna port is carried can be inferred from the channel through which another symbol on the same antenna port is carried. Two antenna ports are said to be in a QC / QCL (quasi co-located or quasi co-location) relationship if the properties of the channel through which a symbol on one antenna port is carried can be inferred from the channel through which a symbol on another antenna port is carried.

[0123] Here, the channel characteristics include one or more of delay spread, Doppler spread, frequency / Doppler shift, average received power, received timing / average delay, and spatial Rx parameter. Here, the spatial Rx parameter refers to a spatial (reception) channel characteristic parameter such as angle of arrival.

[0124] A terminal may be configured with a list of up to M TCI-State settings in the upper layer parameter PDSCH-Config to decode PDSCHs based on detected PDCCHs having DCI intended for the terminal and a given serving cell. M depends on the UE capability.

[0125] Each TCI-State contains parameters for establishing a quasi co-location relationship between one or two DL reference signals and the DM-RS port of the PDSCH.

[0126] The quasi-colocation relationship is established by the upper-layer parameters qcl-Type1 for the first DL RS and qcl-Type2 (if set) for the second DL RS. For two DL RSs, the QCL types are not the same, regardless of whether the references are the same DL RS or different DL RSs.

[0127] The quasi co-location type corresponding to each DL RS is given by the higher layer parameter qcl-Type of QCL-Info, and can take one of the following values:

[0128] - 'QCL-TypeA': {Doppler shift, Doppler spread, average delay, delay spread}

[0129] - 'QCL-TypeB': {Doppler shift, Doppler spread}

[0130] - 'QCL-TypeC': {Doppler shift, average delay}

[0131] - 'QCL-TypeD': {Spatial Rx parameter}

[0132] For example, if a target antenna port is a specific NZP CSI-RS, the corresponding NZP CSI-RS antenna port(s) can be instructed / configured to be QCL with a specific TRS from a QCL-Type A perspective and with a specific SSB from a QCL-Type D perspective. A terminal that has received such an instruction / configuration can receive the corresponding NZP CSI-RS using the Doppler and delay values ​​measured at the QCL-TypeA TRS, and apply the reception beam used for QCL-TypeD SSB reception to the corresponding NZP CSI-RS reception.

[0133] The UE can receive an activation command by MAC CE signaling, which is used to map up to eight TCI states to codepoints in the DCI field 'Transmission Configuration Indication'.

[0134] Additionally, one or more DL TCI states as well as one or more UL TCI states may be indicated together via DL DCI (e.g., DCI format 1_1 or 1_2). As another example, DL DCI may include only UL TCI states without DL TCI states. UL beam (i.e., UL spatial parameters) and power control related parameters may be indicated by the UL TCI states. For example, one UL TCI state may be indicated via the TCI field of DL DCI, and the UL TCI state may be applied to all or part of a set of PUSCH / PUCCH / SRS resources after a beam application time.

[0135] Multi-TRP related actions

[0136] Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) is a technique that effectively controls interference by having multiple base stations exchange (e.g., using the X2 interface) or utilize channel information (e.g., RI / CQI / PMI / LI (layer indicator)) fed back from terminals and cooperatively transmit it to terminals. Depending on the method used, CoMP can be categorized into joint transmission (JT), coordinated scheduling (CS), coordinated beamforming (CB), dynamic point selection (DPS), and dynamic point blocking (DPB).

[0137] The M-TRP transmission method, in which M TRPs transmit data to one terminal, can be broadly divided into i) eMBB M-TRP transmission, a method for increasing transmission rate, and ii) URLLC M-TRP transmission, a method for increasing reception success rate and reducing latency.

[0138] In addition, from the perspective of DCI transmission, M-TRP transmission methods can be divided into i) M-TRP transmission based on M-DCI (multiple DCI) in which each TRP transmits a different DCI, and ii) M-TRP transmission based on S-DCI (single DCI) in which one TRP transmits a DCI. For example, in the case of S-DCI-based M-TRP transmission, all scheduling information for data transmitted by an M TRP must be delivered to the terminal through a single DCI, so it can be used in an ideal backhaul (ideal BH: ideal BackHaul) environment in which dynamic cooperation between the two TRPs is possible.

[0139] The UE may recognize the PUSCH (or PUCCH) scheduled by the DCI received in different control resource sets (CORESETs) (or CORESETs belonging to different CORESET groups) as a PUSCH (or PUCCH) transmitted in different TRPs, or as a PDSCH (or PDCCH) of different TRPs. In addition, the method for UL transmission (e.g., PUSCH / PUCCH) transmitted in different TRPs described below can be equally applied to UL transmission (e.g., PUSCH / PUCCH) transmitted in different panels belonging to the same TRP.

[0140] Hereinafter, the CORESET group identifier (group ID) described / mentioned in the present disclosure may mean an index / identification information (e.g., ID) for distinguishing a CORESET for each TRP / panel. And the CORESET group may be a group / union of CORESETs distinguished by an index / identification information (e.g., ID) / the CORESET group ID for distinguishing a CORESET for each TRP / panel. For example, the CORESET group ID may be specific index information defined in the CORSET configuration. In this case, the CORESET group may be set / indicated / defined by an index defined in the CORESET configuration for each CORESET. And / or the CORESET group ID may mean an index / identification information / indicator for distinguishing / identifying between CORESETs set / associated with each TRP / panel. Hereinafter, the CORESET group ID described / mentioned in the present disclosure may be expressed by being replaced with a specific index / specific identification information / specific indicator for distinguishing / identifying the CORESETs set / associated in each TRP / panel. The CORESET group ID, i.e., the specific index / specific identification information / specific indicator for distinguishing / identifying the CORESETs set / associated in each TRP / panel, may be set / instructed to the terminal through higher layer signaling (e.g., RRC signaling) / second layer signaling (L2 signaling, e.g., MAC-CE) / first layer signaling (L1 signaling, e.g., DCI). For example, PDCCH detection may be set / instructed to be performed for each TRP / panel (i.e., for each TRP / panel belonging to the same CORESET group) in units of the corresponding CORESET group.And / or, uplink control information (e.g., CSI, HARQ-A / N (ACK / NACK), SR (scheduling request)) and / or uplink physical channel resources (e.g., PUCCH / PRACH / SRS resources) may be separately managed / controlled for each TRP / panel in the corresponding CORESET group (i.e., for each TRP / panel belonging to the same CORESET group). And / or, HARQ A / N (process / retransmission) for PDSCH / PUSCH, etc. scheduled for each TRP / panel in the corresponding CORESET group (i.e., for each TRP / panel belonging to the same CORESET group) may be managed.

[0141] For example, the ControlResourceSet information element (IE), which is an upper layer parameter, is used to configure a time / frequency control resource set (CORESET). For example, the control resource set (CORESET) may be related to detection and reception of downlink control information. The ControlResourceSet IE may include a CORESET-related ID (e.g., controlResourceSetID) / an index of a CORESET pool for the CORESET (e.g., CORESETPoolIndex) / time / frequency resource configuration of the CORESET / TCI information related to the CORESET, etc. For example, the index of the CORESET pool (e.g., CORESETPoolIndex) may be set to 0 or 1. In the above description, a CORESET group may correspond to a CORESET pool, and a CORESET group ID may correspond to a CORESET pool index (e.g., CORESETPoolIndex).

[0142] The Rel-17 NR standard supports (1) MTRP PDCCH repetition transmission, (2) MTRP PDCCH single frequency network (SFN) transmission, (3) MTRP PDSCH SFN transmission, (4) MTRP PUSCH repetition transmission based on S-DCI, and (4) MTRP PUCCH repetition transmission based on a single PUCCH resource. All of these transmission techniques are URLLC target enhancements for increased reliability, in which the same contents (i.e., DCI or UL / DL TB or UCI) are repeatedly transmitted. In the case of MTRP PDCCH repetitive transmission, it is repeatedly transmitted in TDM or FDM, MTRP PDCCH / PDSCH SFN is repeatedly transmitted at the same time / frequency / layer, S-DCI-based MTRP PUSCH repetitive transmission is repeatedly transmitted in TDM, and single PUCCH resource-based MTRP PUCCH repetitive transmission is repeatedly transmitted in TDM.

[0143] Simultaneous transmission across multi-panel (STxMP)

[0144] In Rel-18, the introduction of a method for UEs to simultaneously transmit multiple channels / reference signals (RSs) of the same type or multiple channels / RSs of different types is being discussed. While existing UEs are restricted from transmitting multiple channels / RSs at the same time (i.e., on the same time resource) (for example, simultaneous transmission of multiple SRS resources from different SRS resource sets for UL beam measurement is possible, but simultaneous transmission of multiple PUSCHs is not possible), this restriction may be relaxed in future advanced UEs, and future advanced UEs may be able to simultaneously transmit multiple channels or RSs using multiple transmit panels. This operation may be referred to as simultaneous transmission across multi-panels (STxMP), and a UE supporting this operation may be referred to as an STxMP UE. For example, two PUSCHs (PUSCH 1, 2) corresponding to (carrying) two UL TBs may be scheduled in the same resource element (RE) (or multiple identical REs), and spatial relation RS 1 and power control (PC) parameter set 1 (i.e., UL TCI state 1) and spatial relation RS 2 and PC parameter set 2 (i.e., UL TCI state 2) may be configured for transmission of PUSCH 1 and 2, respectively. The UE may transmit PUSCH 1 using panel 1 corresponding to UL TCI state 1, and simultaneously transmit PUSCH 2 using panel 2 corresponding to UL TCI state 2.

[0145] When scheduling a PUSCH via DCI, the base station can indicate whether the PUSCH will be transmitted in STxMP mode, in a single panel, or in M-TRP PUSCH repetition mode. In this case, the UE must have STxMP capability, and the STxMP mode (e.g., SDM method / mode or SFN method / mode) may be enabled in advance via higher layer signaling (e.g., RRC signaling). For this purpose, the existing SRS resource set indication field may be redefined and used, or a new DCI field may be introduced.

[0146] Two methods are being considered for the Rel-18 STxMP transmission technique: single frequency network (SFN) and spatial division multiplexing (SDM).

[0147] The SFN method transmits the same channel (or RS) from one panel to another. However, since the UL channel (or RS) of each panel is different, it is transmitted using a different precoder, different transmission power, and different transmission beam (i.e., spatial relation RS indicated by UL TCI) for each panel.

[0148] The SDM method is a method that can be transmitted from rank 2 and higher, and some of the multi-layers are transmitted on panel 1, and the remaining layers are transmitted on panel 2. For example, in a 2-layer transmission, the first layer can be transmitted on panel 1, and the second layer can be transmitted on panel 2. Even in this case, since the UL channels of each panel are different, different precoders, different transmission powers, and different transmission beams (i.e., spatial relation RSs indicated by UL TCI) are used for transmission for each panel.

[0149] The following operations may be supported to dynamically switch between STxMP SDM mode and sTRP transmission.

[0150] - For sTRP transmission, the maximum number of layers of sTRP transmission can be set by maxRank (or Lmax).

[0151] - For SDM mode: A single maximum number of layers (e.g., separate from maxRank (or Lmax) for sTRP) can be set, which applies separately to the first and second SRS resource sets.

[0152] The total number of PUSCH antenna ports used for SDM and sTRP may be the same, but is not limited thereto.

[0153] FIG. 7 illustrates a signaling procedure between a network and a UE for a PUSCH transmission and reception method according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0154] FIG. 7 illustrates signaling between a network (e.g., TRP 1, TRP 2) and a UE in a situation of multiple TRPs (i.e., M-TRP, or multi-cell, where all TRPs can be replaced with cells) to which the methods proposed in the present disclosure (e.g., combinations of one or more of the proposed methods in Embodiments 1 to 4-1, which will be described later) can be applied.

[0155] Here, the UE / network side is exemplary and can be replaced with various devices as described with reference to FIG. 10. FIG. 7 is provided for convenience of explanation and does not limit the scope of the present disclosure. In addition, some of the steps shown in FIG. 7 may be omitted depending on the situation and / or settings. In addition, the network side / UE operation of FIG. 7 may refer to or utilize the aforementioned uplink transmission / reception operation, M-TRP-related operation, etc.

[0156] In the following description, the network side may be a single base station including multiple TRPs, or may be a single cell including multiple TRPs. Alternatively, the network side may include multiple RRHs (remote radio heads) / RRUs (remote radio units). For example, ideal / non-ideal backhaul may be established between TRP 1 and TRP 2 constituting the network side. In addition, although the following description is based on multiple TRPs, it can be equally extended and applied to transmission through multiple panels / cells, and can also be extended and applied to transmission through multiple RRHs / RRUs, etc.

[0157] A panel may be replaced with an expression such as an SRS resource set, a CORESET group (or a CORESET pool), a TRP, a beam, a capability value index, an antenna array, a cell (e.g., a macro cell / small cell / pico cell, etc.), a transmission point (TP), a base station (gNB, etc.), etc. As described above, a panel and / or a TRP may be distinguished based on information about a CORESET group (or a CORESET pool) (e.g., a CORESET index, an ID).

[0158] For example, different SRS resource sets / SRS resources may be mapped / configured / corresponded to different panels. For example, the first panel may be mapped to SRS resource set 0, and the second panel may be mapped to SRS resource set 1. The SRS resource(s) of SRS resource set 0 may refer to the transmit antenna port(s) of the first panel, and the SRS resource(s) of SRS resource set 1 may refer to the transmit antenna port(s) of the second panel.

[0159] For example, if a single terminal is configured to transmit and receive with multiple TRPs (or cells), this may mean that multiple CORESET groups (or CORESET pools) are configured for the single terminal. The configuration of such CORESET groups (or CORESET pools) can be performed via higher-layer signaling (e.g., RRC signaling).

[0160] Additionally, a base station may be a general term for an object that transmits and receives data with a terminal. For example, the base station may be a concept that includes one or more Transmission Points (TPs), one or more Transmission and Reception Points (TRPs), etc. Furthermore, the TPs and / or TRPs may include a panel of the base station, a transmission and reception unit, etc.

[0161] Meanwhile, although not shown in FIG. 7, for example, the terminal may report terminal capability information to the network via / using TRP 1 (and / or TRP 2).

[0162] Here, for a terminal supporting multi-panel (i.e., STxMP) uplink (e.g., PUSCH) transmission, the terminal capability information may include at least one of i) information on a codebook subset supported for each of the first panel and the second panel, and ii) information on a codebook subset supported for each of multi-panel transmission (i.e., STxMP) and non-multi-panel transmission (i.e., STRP (single TRP) transmission). Additionally, the terminal capability information reported by the terminal to the base station may include various types of capability information described in Embodiments 1 to 4-1 below.

[0163] The UE can receive configuration information from the network via / using TRP 1 (and / or TRP 2) (S701).

[0164] The above configuration information may include information related to the configuration of the network (e.g., TRP configuration) / information related to transmission and reception based on M-TRP (e.g., resource allocation, etc.). In this case, the configuration information may be transmitted via upper layer signaling (e.g., RRC signaling, MAC-CE, etc.).

[0165] Additionally, for example, the configuration information may include information for configuring joint TCI and / or separate DL / UL TCI. For example, the configuration information may include a list of TCI states that provide a reference for determining an uplink transmission spatial filter of a DMRS / uplink signal (e.g., SRS) of an uplink channel (e.g., PUSCH, PUCCH).

[0166] In addition, for example, the configuration information may include information on a multi-panel (i.e., STxMP) PUSCH transmission scheme. For example, it may include information (e.g., a higher layer parameter multipanelscheme) that sets whether to transmit multi-panel (i.e., STxMP), and through the information, whether to transmit STxMP and the STxMP transmission scheme (e.g., SDM scheme or SFN scheme) may be set.

[0167] Additionally, for example, the configuration information may include information for setting the maximum number of layers per panel for multi-panel (i.e., STxMP) PUSCH transmission. That is, when a UE supports two panels and multi-panel PUSCH transmission is set through two panels, the configuration information may include first information / parameter for setting the maximum number of layers for a first panel (e.g., a higher layer parameter maxRank1, a higher layer parameter for setting the Lmax1 value, etc.) and second information / parameter for setting the maximum number of layers for a second panel (e.g., a higher layer parameter maxRank2, a higher layer parameter for setting the Lmax2 value, etc.). Additionally, the configuration information may further include third information / parameter for setting the maximum number of layers for STRP PUSCH transmission (e.g., a higher layer parameter maxRank, a higher layer parameter for setting the Lmax value, etc.). Additionally, the configuration information may further include codebook subset information for the first panel (e.g., upper layer parameter codebookSubset1) and codebook subset information for the second panel (e.g., upper layer parameter codebookSubset2).

[0168] Additionally, for example, the configuration information may include information on an SRS resource set, and at least two SRS resource sets may be configured for the multi-panel PUSCH transmission. Here, depending on whether the usage for the SRS resource set is set to "codebook" or "non-codebook," it may be indicated whether the PUSCH transmission scheduled by the DCI referencing the corresponding SRS resource set corresponds to a codebook-based uplink transmission or a non-codebook-based uplink transmission.

[0169] In addition, the above configuration information may include configuration information related to STRP PUSCH transmission or multi-panel (i.e., STxMP) PUSCH transmission described in the proposed method described below.

[0170] The terminal receives downlink control information (DCI) from the network via / using TRP 1 (and / or TRP 2) (S702).

[0171] The above DCI may be transmitted via a downlink control channel (e.g., PDCCH) and may schedule a STRP PUSCH transmission or a multi-panel (STxMP) PUSCH transmission (i.e., including a UL grant).

[0172] Additionally, the DCI may include a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource set indicator field, a first precoding-related field, and a second precoding-related field.

[0173] Here, based on the value of the SRS resource set indicator field, it can be indicated whether the PUSCH transmission scheduled by the DCI is a STRP PUSCH transmission (e.g., the value of the SRS resource set indicator field is 00 or 01) or a multi-panel (STxMP) PUSCH transmission (e.g., the value of the SRS resource set indicator field is 10 or 11).

[0174] Additionally, when the PUSCH transmission is a codebook-based transmission, the first precoding-related field and the second precoding-related field may correspond to a first precoding information and number of layers field and a second precoding information and number of layers field, respectively.

[0175] Additionally, when the PUSCH transmission is a non-codebook-based transmission, the first precoding-related field and the second precoding-related field may correspond to a first sounding reference signal (SRS) resource indicator field and a second SRS resource indicator field, respectively.

[0176] A precoder and / or rank applied across one or more layers for a first panel may be indicated / determined by the first precoding-related field, and a precoder and / or rank applied across one or more layers for a second panel may be indicated / determined by the second precoding-related field.

[0177] The terminal transmits a PUSCH to the network via / using TRP 1 (and / or TRP 2) (S703).

[0178] Here, for STRP PUSCH transmission, the UE can perform STRP PUSCH transmission to the network through / using a single TRP according to the scheduling of DCI based on a single spatial relationship RS (or UL TCI state).

[0179] Alternatively, for multi-panel (STxMP) PUSCH transmission, the UE may perform multi-panel (STxMP) PUSCH transmission (SDM or SFN) to the network via / using multiple TRPs using multiple panels according to scheduling of DCI based on different spatial relationship RSs (or different UL TCI states).

[0180] Power control of uplink data channels

[0181] Below, we describe a method for controlling power when a terminal performs a PUSCH transmission. It should be noted that the method described below can be extended and applied to other uplink data channels supported in wireless communication systems.

[0182] In the case of PUSCH transmission in the active UL BWP of the carrier (f) of the serving cell (c), the terminal can calculate the linear power value of the transmission power determined by the following mathematical expression 3. Thereafter, the terminal can control the transmission power by considering the number of antenna ports and / or the number of SRS ports, etc. based on the calculated linear power value.

[0183]

[0184] Specifically, when a terminal performs PUSCH transmission in an activated UL BWP (b) of a carrier (f) of a serving cell (c) using a parameter set configuration based on an index j and a PUSCH power control adjustment state based on an index l, the terminal determines the PUSCH transmission power at a PUSCH transmission opportunity (i) based on Equation 3. (dBm) can be determined.

[0185] In Equation 3, the index j represents the open-loop power control parameter (e.g., Po, alpha, ) etc.), and up to 32 sets of parameters can be set per cell. The index q_d represents the path loss (PathLoss, PL) measurement (e.g., ) represents the index of the DL RS resource, and up to four measurements can be set per cell. Index l represents the index for the closed-loop power control process, and up to two processes can be set per cell.

[0186] Specifically, Po (e.g., ) is a parameter broadcast as part of system information and can indicate the target reception power at the receiving end. The corresponding Po value can be set by considering the terminal's throughput, cell capacity, noise, and / or interference.

[0187] Also, alpha (e.g. ) can represent the ratio at which compensation for path loss is performed. Alpha can be set to a value from 0 to 1, and depending on the set value, full path loss compensation or fractional path loss compensation can be performed. In this case, the alpha value can be set in consideration of interference between terminals and / or data rate, etc. In addition, can represent the set UE transmit power.

[0188] For example, the above-described configured terminal transmission power can be interpreted as a predefined 'configured maximum UE output power'. In addition, can represent the bandwidth of PUSCH resource allocation expressed as the number of resource blocks (RBs) for PUSCH transmission opportunities based on the subcarrier spacing (μ). In addition, related to the PUSCH power control adjustment state can be set or indicated based on the TPC command field of DCI (e.g., DCI format 0_0, DCI format 0_1, DCI format 2_2, DCI format 2_3, etc.).

[0189] In this case, a specific RRC parameter (e.g., 'SRI-PUSCHPowerControl-Mapping', etc.) may indicate a linkage between the SRI field of the DCI and the above-described indices j, q_d, l. That is, the above-described indices j, l, q_d, etc. may be associated with a beam, a panel, and / or a spatial domain transmission filter, etc. based on specific information. Through this, PUSCH transmission power control in units of beam, panel, and / or spatial domain transmission filter may be performed.

[0190] The parameters and / or information for the above-described PUSCH power control can be individually (i.e., independently) set for each BWP. In this case, the parameters and / or information can be set or indicated via higher layer signaling (e.g., RRC signaling, MAC-CE, etc.) and / or DCI, etc. For example, the parameters and / or information for PUSCH power control can be conveyed via RRC signaling 'PUSCH-ConfigCommon', 'PUSCH-PowerControl', etc.

[0191] Through the method described above, the terminal can determine or calculate PUSCH transmission power, and transmit PUSCH using the determined or calculated PUSCH transmission power.

[0192] How to set / define maximum transmit power per slot

[0193] As described above, the UL STxMP method can be divided into an S-DCI-based STxMP method in which two panels transmit a UL channel scheduled by one DCI, and an M-DCI-based STxMP method in which two panels transmit two UL channels scheduled by different DCIs.

[0194] Specifically, the M-DCI-based STxMP method means a method in which UL channel 0 associated with "CORESET full index = 0" and UL channel 1 associated with "CORESET full index = 0" transmit at the same time. Here, UL channel 0 and each of the UL channels can be one of PUSCH, PUCCH, or SRS.

[0195] Here, the UL channel 0 associated with "CORESET pool index = 0" may include a UL channel scheduled through CORESET(s) belonging to "CORESET pool index = 0", a UL channel directly associated with "CORESET pool index = 0" set / indicated, or / and a UL channel directly associated with "SRS resource set ID / index = 0" set / indicated. In this case, "SRS resource set ID / index = 0" may be associated with "CORESET pool index = 0".

[0196] And, UL channel 1 associated with "CORESET pool index = 1" may include UL channels scheduled through CORESET(s) belonging to "CORESET pool index = 1", UL channels directly associated with "CORESET pool index = 1", or / and UL channels directly associated with "SRS resource set ID / index = 1". In this case, "SRS resource set ID / index = 1" may be associated with "CORESET pool index = 1".

[0197] The M-DCI-based STxMP method can be divided into non-ideal BH (i.e., delay of tens or hundreds of msec or more) and ideal BH (i.e., delay of 1 msec or less) depending on the link delay assumption of the backhaul (BH) between TRPs that manage / use each CORESET pool.

[0198] When M-DCI-based STxMP is applied to a non-ideal BH, it may be difficult for each TRP scheduling UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 to determine the UL channel scheduling status of the other TRP. That is, TRP 0, which manages / uses CORESET pool 0, cannot determine whether UL channel 1 is scheduled or its scheduling status. In addition, TRP 1, which manages / uses CORESET pool 1, cannot determine whether UL channel 0 is scheduled or its scheduling status.

[0199] The above-described situation has a problem in that it reduces the maximum value of UL power that each panel can transmit by half. For example, assume that UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 are each PUSCHs, and the power control scheme of each PUSCH is the PUSCH power control scheme described above. The Pcmax value according to mathematical expression 3 means the maximum value of UL power that can be allocated to the PUSCH. In the STxMP situation where UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 are transmitted simultaneously, if the power of each UL channel is determined as Pcmax, the terminal must transmit two UL channels with a total value of 2 * Pcmax. If an implementation method in which the maximum transmission power of the terminal is shared by two panels is applied, the terminal cannot transmit two UL channels with a value of 2 * Pcmax at one time. That is, in a method in which the maximum transmission power of the terminal is shared by two panels, the sum of the transmission powers of the two panels cannot exceed Pcmax. Accordingly, Pcmax may not be used as is in non-ideal BH situations where M-DCI-based STxMP is applied.

[0200] Therefore, in the above-described situation, when the STxMP method is applied, it may be necessary to reduce the maximum value of the UL power of each panel by half. That is, the terminal can perform UL power control for each panel using Pcmax / 2 instead of Pcmax.

[0201] Here, in the non-ideal BH M-DCI-based STxMP situation, each TRP may not know the UL channel scheduling situation of the other TRP, and thus may not be able to determine whether STxMP is currently set up / in progress. Accordingly, each TRP may set the maximum transmit power value of its UL channel to Pcmax / 2, assuming the STxMP situation.

[0202] In the following, in order to solve the above-described problem, a method is described in which a base station sets / instructs a terminal to set a slot / symbol in which UL channel 0 cannot be transmitted, a slot / symbol in which UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted, and a slot / symbol in which both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 can be transmitted.

[0203] FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining an uplink transmission operation of a terminal in a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied.

[0204] The terminal may receive from the base station first information related to at least one first time unit in which a first uplink (UL) channel may be scheduled and at least one second time unit in which a second UL channel may be scheduled (S810).

[0205] Here, the first information can be transmitted to the terminal via a radio resource control (RRC) message, a medium access control (MAC)-control element (CE), or downlink control information (DCI). In addition, each of the first UL channel and the second UL channel can be one of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), or a sounding reference signal (SRS).

[0206] In one example of the present disclosure, a time unit may be either a slot or a symbol. That is, the terminal may receive first information from the base station regarding slots / symbols capable of scheduling the first UL channel and / or the second UL channel. As an example, the first information may include a bitmap indicating whether scheduling of at least one of the first UL channel or the second UL channel is possible for each time unit.

[0207] However, this is only one embodiment, and the terminal may include information about a time unit in which the first information cannot schedule the first UL channel, a time unit in which the second UL channel cannot be scheduled, and a time unit in which both the first UL channel and the second UL channel can be scheduled.

[0208] As an example of the present disclosure, a third time unit may exist in which the first time unit and the second time unit overlap. That is, the third time unit in which the first time unit and the second time unit overlap may mean a time unit in which both the first UL channel and the second UL channel can be scheduled. In the third time unit, the maximum transmission power for the first UL channel is "the maximum transmission power for a predefined UL transmission (Pcmax) * (0 1)" is applied, and "Pcmax *" is applied as the maximum transmission power for the second UL channel. ( )" can be applied. Here, is "1- " may be defined as, but is not limited to,

[0209] And, Pcmax may be applied as the maximum transmission power for the first UL channel in the first time unit, and Pcmax may be applied as the maximum transmission power for the second UL channel in the second time unit.

[0210] The terminal can transmit at least one of the first UL channel or the second UL channel to the base station based on the first information (S820).

[0211] As an example of the present disclosure, the terminal may receive control information from the base station for scheduling each of the first UL channel and the second UL channel on a third time unit. That is, the terminal may receive control information from the base station for scheduling simultaneous transmission of the first UL channel and the second UL channel on a third time unit.

[0212] At this time, the terminal can perform a group-based beam reporting operation. That is, the terminal can transmit second information related to a simultaneously applicable spatial parameter pair to the base station. For example, the terminal can transmit a first spatial parameter (e.g., a first beam or a first spatial filter) and a second spatial parameter (e.g., a second beam or a second spatial filter) as a simultaneously applicable spatial parameter pair to the base station. At this time, the first spatial parameter can be set for the first UL channel scheduled in the third time unit, and the second spatial parameter can be set for the second UL channel scheduled in the third time unit.

[0213] That is, the terminal can simultaneously transmit a first UL channel to which a first spatial parameter is applied and a second UL channel to which a second spatial parameter is applied to the base station in a third time unit.

[0214] As an example of the present disclosure, based on scheduling a first UL channel and a second UL channel on a third time unit, and Each can be 0.5. That is, the maximum transmit power of each of the first UL channel and the second UL channel can be set / defined as 0.5 Pcmax.

[0215] Another example of the present disclosure is: and Assume that each is 1 and the first UL channel and the second UL channel are scheduled on the third time unit. At this time, based on the fact that the sum of the transmission powers of the first UL channel and the second UL channel exceeds Pcmax, the transmission power of a specific UL channel with a lower priority among the first UL channel and the second UL channel may be scaled or the specific UL channel may be dropped.

[0216] Here, the priority of each of the first UL channel and the second UL channel can be determined based on the CORESET full index corresponding to each of the first UL channel and the second UL channel or the type of each of the first UL channel and the second UL channel. The priority of a UL channel with a lower (or higher) associated CORESET full index can be set / defined as being higher. As another example, the types of UL channels can be prioritized in the order of PUCCH, PUSCH, and SRS.

[0217] The method performed by the terminal described in the example of FIG. 8 may be performed by the first device (100) of FIG. 11. For example, one or more processors (102) of the first device (100) of FIG. 11 may receive, from a base station through one or more transceivers (106), first information related to at least one first time unit in which a first UL channel may be scheduled and at least one second time unit in which a second UL channel may be scheduled. The one or more processors (102) may transmit, to the base station through one or more transceivers (106), at least one of the first UL channel or the second UL channel based on the first information.

[0218] The above memory (104) can store instructions for performing the method described in the example of FIG. 8 when executed by one or more processors (102).

[0219] FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining an uplink reception operation of a base station in a wireless communication system to which the present disclosure can be applied.

[0220] The base station can transmit to the terminal first information related to at least one first time unit in which a first UL channel can be scheduled and at least one second time unit in which a second UL channel can be scheduled (S910).

[0221] The base station may transmit the first information to the terminal via one of an RRC message, MAC-CE, or DCI. Accordingly, the base station may configure / indicate whether scheduling of at least one of the first UL channel or the second UL channel is possible for each time unit.

[0222] The base station can receive at least one of the first UL channel or the second UL channel from the terminal based on the first information (S920).

[0223] Specifically, the base station may transmit information to the terminal for scheduling at least one of the first UL channel or the second UL channel for each time unit according to the first information. The base station may receive the first UL channel and / or the second UL channel from the terminal based on the maximum transmission power set / defined for each time unit.

[0224] The method performed by the base station described in the example of FIG. 9 may be performed by the second device (200) of FIG. 11. For example, one or more processors (202) of the second device (200) of FIG. 11 may transmit first information related to at least one first time unit in which a first UL channel may be scheduled and at least one second time unit in which a second UL channel may be scheduled to a terminal via one or more transceivers (206). The one or more processors (202) may receive at least one of the first UL channel or the second UL channel from the terminal via one or more transceivers (206) based on the first information.

[0225] Furthermore, one or more memories (204) of the second device (200) may store instructions for performing the method described in the example of FIG. 9 when executed by one or more processors (202).

[0226] Below, we will specifically describe how to set / indicate UL channels that can be transmitted on a symbol / slot basis.

[0227] Example 1

[0228] Example 1 relates to a procedure for setting / indicating a UL channel that can be transmitted symbol-by-slot.

[0229] The base station can semi-statically configure information about the type of UL channel that can be transmitted for each slot / symbol to the terminal via RRC signaling (or SIB, etc.). However, this is only an example, and the base station can dynamically configure information about the type of UL channel that can be transmitted for each slot / symbol to the terminal via DCI / MAC-CE.

[0230] As an example of the present disclosure, as illustrated in FIG. 10, the base station may transmit information to the terminal indicating that UL channel 0 cannot be transmitted in slots 0, 1, and 8, UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted in slots 2, 3, and 9, and UL channels 0 and 1 can be transmitted in slots 4, 5, 6, and 7.

[0231] As illustrated in Fig. 10, the information transmitted from the base station to the terminal may be configured in the form of a bitmap indicating whether UL channel 0 or / and UL channel 1 can be transmitted in units of 10 slots. The bitmap may be configured with 2 bits per slot, and may include a total of 20 bits. That is, the information may be repeatedly applied again starting from slot 10, which is the slot following slot 9.

[0232] For example, the 2-bit values ​​for each slot included in the bitmap may be set to "00", "01", and "10". For example, if the 2-bit value corresponding to slot n (e.g., n is an integer greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 9) (or symbol n) is set to "00", this may indicate that channel 0 cannot be transmitted in slot n (or symbol n). If the 2-bit value corresponding to slot n (or symbol n) is set to "01", this may indicate that channel 1 cannot be transmitted in slot n (or symbol n). If the 2-bit value corresponding to slot n (or symbol n) is set to "10", this may indicate that UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 can be transmitted in slot n (or symbol n).

[0233] However, this is only one embodiment, and each of the 2-bit values ​​"00", "01", and "10" corresponding to slot n (or symbol n) may correspond to "information indicating that UL channel 0 cannot be transmitted in slot n (or symbol n)", "information indicating that UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted in slot n (or symbol n)", and "information indicating that UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 can be transmitted in slot n (or symbol n)".

[0234] Additionally, when the 2-bit value corresponding to slot n (or symbol n) is set to "11", this may indicate that slot n (or symbol n) is a slot that can be flexibly configured. Whether UL channel 0 or UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted on a flexible slot (or symbol) and whether both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 can be transmitted may be indicated dynamically through MAC-CE or DCI, etc. That is, when the 2-bit value corresponding to slot n (or symbol n) is set to "11", it may be indicated whether UL channel 0 or UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted on slot n (or symbol n) and whether both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 can be transmitted.

[0235] Example 1-1

[0236] Example 1-1 relates to the Pcmax value applied to each slot set according to Example 1.

[0237] As an example of the present disclosure, UL channel 1 may be transmitted in a slot / symbol in which UL channel 0 cannot be transmitted. In the case where only UL channel 1 is transmitted, the STxMP method is not applied, and thus Pcmax may be applied as the maximum transmission value of the UL channel.

[0238] As another example of the present disclosure, UL channel 0 may be transmitted in slots / symbols in which UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted. In cases where only UL channel 0 is transmitted, the STxMP method is not applied, and thus Pcmax may be applied as the maximum transmission value of the UL channel.

[0239] In a slot / symbol where both UL channels 0 and 1 can be transmitted, UL channels 0 and 1 can be transmitted simultaneously (i.e., STxMP-based transmission). Therefore, the maximum transmit power value of each UL channel can be applied as Pcmax / 2. As another example, the maximum transmit power value of UL channel 0 can be "Pcmax * alpha(0 <alpha<1)"로 적용될 수 있으며, UL 채널 1의 최대 전송 전력 값은 "Pcmax * (1-alpha)(0<alpha<1)"로 적용될 수 있다.

[0240] Example 1-2

[0241] Example 1-2 relates to a method for dynamically transmitting information related to whether UL channel transmission is possible for each slot / symbol.

[0242] Even within a CORESET pool, there can be one or more TRPs, and the TRPs can perform UL / DL scheduling or receive UL channels through dynamic switching. For example, if UL TCI states 0 to 7 are set to be available (i.e., activated) in a CORESET pool with a CORESET pool index value of 0, UL TCI states 0 to 3 can indicate a UL beam (i.e., a UL spatial parameter) toward TRP 0_0, and UL TCI states 4 to 7 can indicate a UL beam toward TRP 0_1. In this case, if the UL TCI state value of UL channel 0 is 4, the corresponding UL channel 0 can be transmitted as TRP 0_0, and if the UL TCI state value of UL channel 0 is 4, the corresponding UL channel 0 can be transmitted as TRP 0_1.

[0243] The UL TCI indication described above is performed via dynamic signaling (e.g., DCI or / and MAC-CE), so that the TRP pairs of each CORESET pool 0 and CORESET pool 1 can change dynamically. Accordingly, whether UL channel transmission is possible for each slot / symbol can be dynamically indicated.

[0244] As an example of the present disclosure, whether transmission of UL channel 0 and / or UL channel 1 is not possible for each slot / symbol and whether transmission of both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 is possible can be indicated via DCI / MAC-CE.

[0245] As another example of the present disclosure, a configuration 1 indicating that UL channel 0 cannot be transmitted (per slot / symbol), a configuration 2 indicating that UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted, and a configuration 3 indicating that transmission of both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 is possible may be transmitted from a base station to a terminal via RRC signaling. Then, the base station may transmit to the terminal a MAC-CE / DCI including information for selecting one of configuration 1, configuration 2, or configuration 3 (per slot / symbol).

[0246] Example 1-3

[0247] Examples 1-3 relate to a new area that can be set per slot / symbol.

[0248] As described in Embodiment 1, Embodiment 1-1, and Embodiment 1-2, it can be set / indicated whether UL channel 0 / UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted and whether transmission of both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 is possible for each slot / symbol. That is, the slot / symbol can be divided into an area where UL channel 0 cannot be transmitted (i.e., a first area), an area where UL channel 1 cannot be transmitted (i.e., a second area), and an area where UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 can be transmitted (i.e., a third area).

[0249] Additionally or alternatively, a symbol / slot (i.e., the fourth region) may be set / indicated in which both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 may be transmitted, and there is no maximum transmission power limitation for UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 (e.g., Pcmax / 2 per UL channel). In this case, power allocation priority may be set to either UL channel 0 or UL channel 1.

[0250] For example, assume that UL channel 0 has priority. Assuming that the maximum transmission power of UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 is both Pcmax, each UL channel can be scheduled. In this case, if the sum of the transmission powers of UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 exceeds Pcmax, the terminal can scale the power of the UL channel with a lower priority (e.g., UL channel 1) or drop the UL channel.

[0251] The priority of each UL channel can be determined based on the TRP ID / CORESET full index / SRS resource set index. For example, the priority of a UL channel with a higher (or lower) TRP ID / CORESET full index / SRS resource set index can be set / defined. As another example, the base station can set priorities for each UL channel. As another example, the priority of each UL channel / RS can be determined based on the combination of simultaneously transmitted UL channels / RS. As another example, a high priority can be set / defined based on the order of PUCCH, PUSCH, and SRS.

[0252] In one or more symbols / slots designated as Region 4, there is no limit on the maximum transmit power (e.g., "Pcmax / 2") and since the scheduling situation is unknown between TRPs, lower priority TRPs can either not perform transmission operations or conservatively transmit unimportant resources / information. In addition, higher priority TRPs are free to schedule UL channels in one or more symbols / slots designated as Region 4.

[0253] Example 1-4

[0254] Examples 1-4 relate to a group-based beam reporting procedure.

[0255] A terminal can report information about simultaneously transmittable UL beams (e.g., spatial parameters, etc.) to a base station through group-based beam reporting. In a slot symbol where both UL channels 0 and 1 can be transmitted, the terminal can transmit UL channels 0 and UL channels 1 to the base station using two simultaneously transmittable UL beams (e.g., UL beam 0 and UL beam 1) previously reported through group-based beam reporting.

[0256] For this purpose, the base station can set beam 0 to UL channel 0 and beam 1 to UL channel 1. If a beam pair other than beam 0 and beam 1 is set to UL channel 0 and UL channel 1, STxMP transmission may not be possible. Therefore, the terminal can expect the base station to set beam 0 and beam 1 to UL channels 0 and 1, respectively, in a slot / symbol that can transmit both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1.

[0257] Additionally or alternatively, the terminal may not expect the base station to set other beam pairs other than beam 0 and 1 on UL channel 0 and UL channel 1, respectively, in slots / symbols where both UL channel 0 and UL channel 1 can be transmitted. That is, the terminal may expect that the remaining beam pairs, except for the beam pairs reported as capable of simultaneous transmission through group-based beam reporting, are not applied to UL channel 0 and UL channel 1.
