Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for transmitting and receiving a signal by a terminal in a wireless communication system supporting reconfiguration of wireless resources. Specifically, the method comprises a step of monitoring wireless resource reconfiguration control information on a number of sub-frames within a set monitoring cycle in order to reconfigure wireless resources, wherein a first uplink-downlink setting in accordance with wireless resource reconfiguration control information is valid only if equally detected on a number of sub-frames, and wherein a number of sub-frames are sub-frames set to monitor wireless resource reconfiguration control information of a terminal.

Claims (42)

1. A method for receiving a signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving first information and second information on a time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration for a serving cell,

wherein the first information includes information on a location of an information field for the serving cell among information fields within downlink control information (DCI), and

wherein the second information includes information on a periodicity and an offset for monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH);

monitoring the PDCCH based on the information on the periodicity and the offset;

receiving the DCI including the information fields through the PDCCH; and

determining the TDD UL-DL configuration based on the location of the information field,

wherein the TDD UL-DL configuration is used within a pre-defined time duration starting from a current time unit where the DCI is received, and the pre-defined time duration is equal to the periodicity for monitoring the PDCCH.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the information fields is configured with 3 bits.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is transmitted through common search space (CSS) on the PDCCH.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) scrambled based on a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) defined for determining the TDD UL-DL configuration.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

performing fallback based on a determination that the determined TDD UL-DL configurations are not a same TDD UL-DL configuration within the periodicity.

6. A user equipment (UE) for receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit configured to transmit and receive signals; and

a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:

control the RF unit to receive first information and second information on a time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration for a serving cell,

wherein the first information includes information on a location of an information field for the serving cell among information fields within downlink control information (DCI), and

wherein the second information includes information on a periodicity and an offset for monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH);

monitor the PDCCH based on the information on the periodicity and the offset;

control the RF unit to receive the DCI including the information fields through the PDCCH; and

determine the TDD UL-DL configuration based on the location of the information field,

wherein the TDD UL-DL configuration is used within a pre-defined time duration starting from a current time unit where the DCI is received, and the pre-defined time duration is equal to the periodicity for monitoring the PDCCH.

7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein each of the information fields is configured with 3 bits.

8. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the DCI is transmitted through common search space (CSS) on the PDCCH.

9. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the DCI is Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) scrambled based on a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) defined for determining the TDD UL-DL configuration.

10. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

perform fallback based on a determination that the determined TDD UL-DL configurations are not a same TDD UL-DL configuration within the periodicity.

11. A processor for a user equipment (UE) for receiving a signal in a wireless communication system,

wherein the processor is configured with processor-executable instructions to control the UE including a receiver to carry out the following steps:

receiving first information and second information on a time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration for a serving cell,

wherein the first information includes information on a location of an information field for the serving cell among information fields within downlink control information (DCI), and

wherein the second information includes information on a periodicity and an offset for monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH);

monitoring the PDCCH based on the information on the periodicity and the offset;

receiving the DCI including the information fields through the PDCCH; and

determining the TDD UL-DL configuration based on the location of the information field,

wherein the TDD UL-DL configuration is used within a pre-defined time duration starting from a current time unit where the DCI is received, and the pre-defined time duration is equal to the periodicity for monitoring the PDCCH.

12. The processor of claim 11 , wherein each of the information fields is configured with 3 bits.

13. The processor of claim 11 , wherein the DCI is transmitted through common search space (CSS) on the PDCCH.

14. The processor of claim 11 , wherein the DCI is Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) scrambled based on a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) defined for determining the TDD UL-DL configuration.

15. The processor of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured with processor-executable instructions to control the UE to carry out the following steps:

performing fallback based on a determination that the determined TDD UL-DL configurations are not a same TDD UL-DL configuration within the periodicity.
