Base station apparatus, terminal apparatus, and communication method for the same
A base station apparatus, a terminal apparatus, and a communication method are provided that are capable of suppressing an increase in processing loads for identification of each terminal apparatus and signal detection for uplink data, a decrease in identification accuracy, and an increase in control information for identification of the terminal apparatus in a multiple access using grant free. A terminal apparatus for communicating with a base station apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a multi-access signature process index from the base station apparatus, and a transmitter configured to transmit a demodulation reference signal and an uplink physical channel. The multi-access signature process index is information indicating association of a mark identifying the uplink physical channel transmitted by grant free access. The transmitter transmits the uplink physical channel processed based on the mark identifying the uplink physical channel and associated with the demodulation reference signal.
