Base station apparatus, terminal apparatus, and communication method for base station apparatus and terminal apparatus
A terminal apparatus for communicating with a base station apparatus, the terminal apparatus including: a receiver configured to receive information related to subcarrier spacing for an OFDM signal from the base station apparatus; and a transmitter configured to transmit an uplink data channel to the base station apparatus by using the OFDM signal, based on the information related to the subcarrier spacing. The transmitter generates the OFDM signal by using a plurality of the subcarrier spacings, and the transmitter configures a transmit power of the uplink data channel, based on the subcarrier spacing of subcarriers to which the uplink data channel has been mapped.
1. A terminal apparatus which communicates with a base station apparatus by using a plurality of subcarriers in at least one of a higher-frequency band and a lower-frequency band, the terminal apparatus comprising:
reception circuitry configured to receive radio resource control (RRC) signaling indicating that contention-based access is supported and including information related to a resource allocation in a unit of a quantity of resource blocks;
control circuitry configured to:
acquire the RRC signaling indicating a subcarrier spacing between the plurality of subcarriers included in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol;
set the subcarrier spacing in the higher-frequency band to be larger than the subcarrier spacing in the lower-frequency band; and
perform transmission power control based on a value of an allowed maximum power reduction (MPR), the allowed MPR being defined based on at least the subcarrier spacing, wherein the control circuitry sets the allowed MPR to be larger in accordance with a larger spacing set to the subcarrier spacing; and
transmission circuitry configured to perform a contention-based uplink transmission based on the performed transmission power control.
