Terminal apparatus, base station apparatus, communication method, and integrated circuit
Provided is a terminal apparatus that performs an uplink LBT procedure, wherein one or more than one subframes are allocated for transmission of a message 3 in an LAA cell, and an LBT procedure for transmission of a random access preamble is initiated in a case where it is determined that a channel is busy in all of the one or more than one subframes.
1. A terminal device configured to communicate with a base station device using a cell of an unlicensed band, the terminal device comprising:
channel measurement circuitry configured to perform an uplink channel access procedure;
reception processing circuitry configured to receive, in a physical downlink shared channel, a message including a random access response grant for the cell of the unlicensed band; and
transmission processing circuitry configured to transmit a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) scheduled by the random access response grant for the cell of the unlicensed band; wherein
the random access response grant includes a field indicating at least an uplink channel access type for the PUSCH transmission;
the channel measurement circuitry is configured to perform the uplink channel access procedure indicated by the field;
a number of bits of the random access response grant is the same as a number of bits of a second random access response grant for a cell of a licensed band; and
a number of bits of a first resource allocation field included in the random access response grant is smaller than a number of bits of a second resource allocation field included in the second random access response grant.
