Abstract

A terminal apparatus that communicates with a base station apparatus includes a configuration unit that sets a first configuration, a second configuration, and a third configuration. The configuration unit starts or restarts the timer when setting the third configuration, and the configuration unit clears/discards the third configuration when the timer expires. The first configuration is used to determine correspondence between a subframe in which PDCCH is arranged and a subframe in which PUSCH corresponding to the PDCCH is arranged, the second configuration is used to determine correspondence between a subframe in which PDSCH is arranged and a subframe in which a HARQ-ACK corresponding to the PDSCH is transmitted, and the third configuration is used to specify an uplink subframe in which uplink transmission is possible.

Claims (15)

1. A terminal device comprising:

configuration circuitry configured to and/or programmed to configure a plurality of subframes to monitor a plurality of physical channels, each of the plurality of subframes including information indicating an uplink-downlink configuration; and

receiving circuitry configured to and/or programmed to monitor, during a period, the information indicating the uplink-downlink configuration in each of the plurality of subframes until one information indicating an uplink-downlink configuration is detected during the period.

2. The terminal device according to claim 1 , wherein

the plurality of physical channels in the plurality of subframes during the period indicate a same uplink-downlink configuration.

3. A radio communication method used for a terminal apparatus, the radio communication method comprising:

configuring a plurality of subframes to monitor a plurality of physical channels, each of the plurality of subframes including information indicating an uplink-downlink configuration; and

monitoring, during a period, the information indicating the uplink-downlink configuration in each of the plurality of subframes until one information indicating an uplink-downlink configuration is detected during the period.

4. The radio communication method according to claim 3 , wherein

the plurality of physical channels in the plurality of subframes during the period indicate a same uplink-downlink configuration.

5. A integrated circuit to be mounted on a terminal device, the integrated circuit being configured to perform at least functions of:

configuring a plurality of subframes to monitor a plurality of physical channels, each of plurality of subframes including information indicating an uplink-downlink configuration; and

monitoring, during a period, the information indicating the uplink-downlink configuration in each of a the plurality of subframes until one information indicating an uplink-downlink configuration is detected during the period.

6. The integrated circuit according to claim 5 , wherein

the plurality of physical channels in the plurality of subframes during the period indicate a same uplink-downlink configuration.
