Method of transmitting and receiving downlink channel and apparatus therefor
A method for a user equipment to receive a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) for RMSI (Remaining Minimum System Information). The method comprises: receiving an SS/PBCH block containing an SS (Synchronization Signal) and a PBCH (Physical Broadcasting Channel); obtaining information related to a CORESET (Control resource set) for the PDCCH; and receiving the PDCCH within the CORESET based on the information. The information includes an offset between a frequency position of the SS/PBCH block related to the CORESET and a frequency position of the CORESET. Values of the offset are defined based on subcarrier spacing of the SS/PBCH block and a minimum channel bandwidth.
1. A method for receiving a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) for Remaining Minimum System Information (RMSI) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving a SS/PBCH block including a synchronization signal (SS) and a Physical Broadcasting Channel (PBCH);
obtaining information related to a control resource set (CORESET) for the PDCCH via the PBCH; and
receiving the PDCCH within the CORESET based on the information,
wherein the information includes an offset between a frequency position of the CORESET and a frequency position of the SS/PBCH block related to the CORESET, and
wherein available values for the offset are defined based on a subcarrier spacing of the SS/PBCH block and a minimum channel bandwidth,
wherein the offset informs the UE of a frequency position of a lowest resource block (RB) of the CORESET, and
wherein an index of a frame including a first start slot of a monitoring window for the CORESET related to the SS/PBCH block having index #2n is different from an index of a frame including a second starting slot of a monitoring window of the CORESET related to the SS/PBCH block having index #2n+1.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a size of a synchronization raster is defined based on the minimum channel bandwidth and the subcarrier spacing.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a number of bits required for the information depends on the subcarrier spacing and the minimum channel bandwidth.
4. A wireless device for receiving a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) for Remaining Minimum System Information (RMSI) in a wireless communication system, the wireless device comprising:
a memory; and
a processor operatively connected with the memory and configured to:
receive a SS/PBCH block including a synchronization signal (SS) and a Physical Broadcasting Channel (PBCH);
obtain information related to a control resource set (CORESET) for the PDCCH via the PBCH; and
receive the PDCCH within the CORESET based on the information,
wherein the information includes an offset between a frequency position of the CORESET and a frequency position of the SS/PBCH block related to the CORESET, and
wherein available values for the offset are defined based on a subcarrier spacing of the SS/PBCH block and a minimum channel bandwidth,
wherein the offset informs the wireless device of a frequency position of a lowest resource block (RB) of the CORESET, and
wherein an index of a frame including a first start slot of a monitoring window for the CORESET related to the SS/PBCH block having index #2n is different from an index of a frame including a second starting slot of a monitoring window of the CORESET related to the SS/PBCH block having index #2n+1.
5. The wireless device according to claim 4 , wherein a size of a synchronization raster is defined based on the minimum channel bandwidth and the subcarrier spacing.
6. The wireless device according to claim 4 , wherein a number of bits required for the information depends on the subcarrier spacing and the minimum channel bandwidth.
7. A method for transmitting a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) for Remaining Minimum System Information (RMSI) by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting a SS/PBCH block including a synchronization signal (SS) and a Physical Broadcasting Channel (PBCH); and
transmitting the PDCCH within a control resource set (CORESET) based on information related to the CORESET for the PDCCH delivered via the PBCH,
wherein the information includes an offset between a frequency position of the CORESET and a frequency position of the SS/PBCH block related to the CORESET, and
wherein available values for the offset are defined based on a subcarrier spacing of the SS/PBCH block and a minimum channel bandwidth,
wherein the offset informs a wireless device of a frequency position of a lowest resource block (RB) of the CORESET, and
wherein an index of a frame including a first start slot of a monitoring window for the CORESET related to the SS/PBCH block having index #2n is different from an index of a frame including a second starting slot of a monitoring window of the CORESET related to the SS/PBCH block having index #2n+1.
