Bandwidth part (BWP) activation using dynamic switching in a wireless communication system
Provided are a method for operating a device in a wireless communication system, and a device using the method. The method comprises: detecting downlink control information (DCI) indicating a change in the bandwidth part (BWP) for the device; and changing the bandwidth part from a first bandwidth part to a second bandwidth part on the basis of the DCI, wherein the second bandwidth part is applied from a slot scheduled by the DCI.
1. A method for changing a bandwidth part (BWP) in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a user equipment (UE) and comprising:
detecting, in a first time resource, downlink control information (DCI) informing a BWP change; and
performing the BWP change from a first BWP to a second BWP based on the DCI,
wherein the DCI is used for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and informs a second time resource for transmitting the PUSCH by the UE,
wherein the second BWP is applied from a beginning of a slot scheduled by the DCI,
wherein the UE does not transmit uplink information during a time duration between the first time resource of detecting the DCI and the second time resource informed by the DCI,
wherein based on that a timer for performing the BWP change to a default BWP expires within the time duration, the UE delays the BWP change to the default BWP, which is triggered by the timer, during the time duration, and
wherein the UE does not transmit or receive a signal until the slot scheduled by the DCI starts.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI informs downlink BWP change or uplink BWP change.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a timer value for the timer is maintained during the time duration.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are BWPs related with a same cell.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is received through some symbols in a slot including a plurality of symbols in a time domain.
6. A device comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a radio signal; and
a processor configured to operate in connection with the transceiver,
wherein the processor is further configured to:
detect, in a first time resource, downlink control information (DCI) informing to perform a bandwidth part (BWP) change, and
perform the BWP change from a first BWP to a second BWP based on the DCI,
wherein the DCI is used for scheduling physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and informs a second time resource for transmitting the PUSCH by the device,
wherein the second BWP is applied from a beginning of a slot scheduled by the DCI,
wherein the device does not transmit uplink information during a time duration between the first time resource of detecting the DCI and the second time resource informed by the DCI,
wherein based on that a timer for performing the BWP change to a default BWP expires within the time duration, the device delays the BWP change to the default BWP, which is triggered by the timer, during the time duration, and
wherein the device does not transmit or receive a signal until the slot scheduled by the DCI starts.
7. The device of claim 6 , wherein the DCI informs downlink BWP change or uplink BWP change.
8. The device of claim 6 , wherein a timer value for the timer is maintained during the time duration.
9. The device of claim 6 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are BWPs related with a same cell.
