Abstract

A terminal apparatus includes a transmitter configured to transmit capability information of the terminal apparatus, and a receiver configured to perform blind detection of a PDCCH from a search space in a control resource set, wherein in a case that a capability of blind detection is supported, the blind detection detecting the PDCCH from search spaces in control resource sets the number of which is greater than a prescribed number in a prescribed duration, the transmitter transmits, as the capability information of the terminal apparatus, at least two of pieces of information including (a) a maximum number of blind detections that can be performed in the prescribed duration, (b) a maximum number of blind detections in a unit time, (c) a maximum number of blind detections based on configuration for the control resource set, and (d) a maximum number of the control resource sets for which blind detections can be simultaneously performed.

Claims (12)

1. A terminal apparatus comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit capability information of the terminal apparatus; and

a receiver configured to monitor a number of PDCCH candidates in at least one search space of at least one control resource set in a prescribed duration, wherein:

the capability information includes a maximum number of blind detections in the prescribed duration and a maximum number of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) symbols for a time resource configurable for the at least one control resource set in the prescribed duration,

the number of PDCCH candidates does not exceed the maximum number of blind detections in the prescribed duration, and

the prescribed duration is a length of a mini-slot.

2. A method comprising the steps of:

transmitting capability information of a terminal apparatus; and

monitoring a number of PDCCH candidates in at least one search space of at least one control resource set in a prescribed duration, wherein:

the capability information includes a maximum number of blind detections in the prescribed duration and a maximum number of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) symbols for a time resource configurable for the at least one control resource set in the prescribed duration,

the number of PDCCH candidates does not exceed the maximum number of blind detections in the prescribed duration, and

the prescribed duration is a length of a mini-slot.
