Abstract

Provided are a base station apparatus, a terminal apparatus, and a communication method, in a case that uplink data transmission based on orthogonal multiple access and uplink data transmission based on non-orthogonal multiple access coexist in a cell in which many terminal apparatuses present, capable of maintaining a prescribed communication quality for the uplink data. The base station apparatus for communicating with a terminal apparatus configured to support contention based access and non-contention based access transmits, in a case that an uplink data channel received in a non-contention based manner occurs in a subframe including the contention based access region, a contention based transmission configuration change notification with respect to a subframe configured to receive the uplink data channel.

Claims (26)

1. A terminal apparatus configured to communicate with a base station apparatus, the terminal apparatus comprising:

reception circuitry configured to receive first radio resource control (RRC) information indicating whether an uplink transmission is supported or not, the uplink transmission being performed without an uplink grant in downlink control information (DCI) and receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with the DCI, and

transmission circuitry configured to transmit an uplink signal via a first physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein

in a case where the reception circuitry receives the first RRC information which includes a first time domain allocation, the first time-domain allocation indicating a start symbol and a number of consecutive symbols, the transmission circuitry transmits uplink data via the first PUSCH based on the first time domain allocation without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.

2. The terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the terminal apparatus is configured to communicate with the base station apparatus using a plurality of serving cells including a primary cell and a secondary cell, and

the transmission circuitry is configured to transmit the uplink data via the first PUSCH in a first serving cell of the plurality of serving cells based on the first time domain allocation for the first serving cell without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.

3. The terminal apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

in a case where the reception circuitry receives second RRC information which includes a second time domain allocation for a second serving cell of the plurality of serving cells, the second time-domain allocation indicating a start symbol and a number of consecutive symbols, the transmission circuitry transmits the uplink data via a second PUSCH in the second serving cell based on the second time domain allocation without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.

4. A base station apparatus configured to communicate with a terminal apparatus, the base station apparatus comprising:

transmission circuitry configured to transmit first radio resource control (RRC) information indicating whether an uplink transmission is supported or not, the uplink transmission being performed without an uplink grant in downlink control information (DCI) and transmit a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with the DCI, and

reception circuitry configured to receive an uplink signal via a first physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein

in a case where the transmission circuitry transmits the first RRC information which includes a first time domain allocation, the first time-domain allocation indicating a start symbol and a number of consecutive symbols, the reception circuitry receives unlink data via the first PUSCH, the first PUSCH being transmitted based on the first time domain allocation without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.

5. The base station apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the base station apparatus is configured to communicate with the terminal apparatus using a plurality of serving cells including a primary cell and a secondary cell, and

the reception circuitry is configured to receive the uplink data via the first PUSCH in a first serving cell of the plurality of serving cells, the first PUSCH being transmitted based on the first time domain allocation for the first serving cell without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.

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

in a case where the transmission circuitry transmits second RRC information which includes a second time domain allocation for a second serving cell of the plurality of serving cells, the second time-domain allocation indicating a start symbol and a number of consecutive symbols, the reception circuitry receives the uplink data via a second PUSCH in the second serving cell, the second PUSCH being transmitted based on the second time domain allocation without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.

7. A communication method for a terminal apparatus configured to communicate with a base station apparatus, the communication method comprising:

receiving radio resource control (RRC) information indicating whether an uplink transmission is supported or not, the uplink transmission being performed without an uplink grant in downlink control information (DCI),

receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with the DCI, and

transmitting an uplink signal via a first physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein in a case of receiving the RRC information which includes a time domain allocation, the time-domain allocation indicating a start symbol and a number of consecutive symbols, uplink data is transmitted via the first PUSCH based on the time domain allocation without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.

8. A communication method for a base station apparatus configured to communicate with a terminal apparatus, the communication method comprising:

transmitting radio resource control (RRC) information indicating whether an uplink transmission is supported or not, the uplink transmission being performed without an uplink grant in downlink control information (DCI),

transmitting a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with the DCI, and

receiving an uplink signal via a first physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein in a case of transmitting the RRC information which includes a time domain allocation, the time-domain allocation indicating a start symbol and a number of consecutive symbols, unlink data is received via the first PUSCH, the first PUSCH being transmitted based on the time domain allocation without a detection of an uplink grant in the DCI.
