Abstract

The present invention relates to a terminal apparatus and a base station apparatus that enable efficient communication. To perform efficient uplink transmission by using a non-allocated frequency band or a shared frequency band. A terminal apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive a message of terminal capability enquiry and a transmission unit that transmits terminal capability information in a case that the message has been received. In a case that the terminal capability information includes first information indicating that uplink LAA is supported, the transmission unit transmits a first PUSCH of a first resource allocation type or a second resource allocation type in a cell that is other than an LAA secondary cell, whereas in the LAA secondary cell, transmits a second PUSCH of a third resource allocation type.

Claims (31)

1. A terminal apparatus comprising:

reception circuitry configured to receive a message of terminal capability enquiry; and

transmission circuitry configured to transmit terminal capability information in a case that the message has been received, wherein

in a case that the terminal capability information includes first information indicating that uplink Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) is supported,

the transmission circuitry is configured to

in a cell that is other than an LAA secondary cell, transmit a first Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) of a first resource allocation type or a second resource allocation type, and

in the LAA secondary cell, transmit a second PUSCH of a third resource allocation type.

2. The terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

a first DCI format used for scheduling the first PUSCH includes a resource allocation type field indicating a resource allocation type of the PUSCH,

a second DCI format used for scheduling the second PUSCH does not include the resource allocation type field, and

resource allocation information for the third resource allocation type indicates a resource block set.

3. The terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the transmission circuitry is configured to

before transmitting the second PUSCH, evaluate whether a channel used for transmitting the second PUSCH is idle, and when the channel is determined as being idle, transmit the second PUSCH.

4. The terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

in a case that the terminal capability information further includes second information indicating that cross carrier scheduling is supported for the uplink LAA, and a configuration relating to the cross carrier scheduling is configured via higher layer signaling for the uplink LAA,

the reception circuitry is configured to

detect the second DCI format in the cell that is other than the LAA secondary cell.

5. A base station apparatus comprising:

transmission circuitry configured to transmit a message of terminal capability enquiry; and

reception circuitry configured to receive terminal capability information in a case that the message has been transmitted, wherein

in a case that the terminal capability information includes first information indicating that uplink Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) is supported,

the transmission circuitry is configured to

for a cell that is other than an LAA secondary cell, transmit a first Downlink Control Channel (DCI) format used for scheduling a first Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) of a first resource allocation type or a second resource allocation type, and

for the LAA secondary cell, transmit a second DCI format used for scheduling a second PUSCH of a third resource allocation type.

6. The base station apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

the transmission circuitry is configured to

include, in the first DCI format used for scheduling the first PUSCH, a resource allocation type field indicating a resource allocation type of the PUSCH, and transmit the first DCI format, and

transmit the second DCI format used for scheduling the second PUSCH without

including the resource allocation type field in the second DCI format, and

resource allocation information for the third resource allocation type indicates a resource block set.
