Abstract

The present specification provides a method for transmitting, by a terminal, a message for execution of a random access procedure in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: receiving a system information block (SIB) from a base station; transmitting a first message, which is a random access preamble, to the base station on the basis of the SIB; receiving a second message, which is a response to the first message, from the base station; and transmitting a third message to the base station, using a carrier different from a carrier used to transmit the first message.

Claims (43)

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) for a random access procedure in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a system information block (SIB) from a base station, wherein the SIB includes time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink configuration information for a serving cell of the UE and information on uplink subcarrier spacing (SCS) supported in the serving cell;

transmitting a first message to the base station based on the TDD uplink-downlink configuration information and the uplink SCS of the SIB, the first message being a random access preamble;

receiving a second message from the base station, the second message being a response to the first message; and

transmitting a third message to the base station using a carrier different from a carrier used to transmit the first message,

wherein the uplink SCS of the serving cell is determined depending on the TDD uplink-downlink configuration information of the serving cell, and

wherein i) payload size of scheduling information for resource allocation of the third message in the second message and ii) the number of subcarriers used for transmitting the third message are determined based on the uplink SCS.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

before transmitting the first message, receiving downlink control information (DCI) from the base station through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the carrier to transmit the third message is configured by the DCI or the second message.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the carrier to transmit the third message is configured by the SIB.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the SIB includes information for resources where the third message is transmittable, and

wherein the carrier to transmit the third message is determined by the DCI or the second message, based on the information for resources where the third message is transmittable.

6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PDCCH is for unicast transmission, and

wherein, based on transmission of the first message being triggered by the DCI, the third message is transmitted using a carrier used for uplink unicast.

7. A user equipment (UE) configured to perform a random access procedure in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) module for transmitting/receiving a radio signal; and

a processor functionally connected with the RF module, wherein the processor is configured to:

receive a system information block (SIB) from a base station, wherein the SIB includes time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink configuration information for a serving cell of the UE and information on uplink subcarrier spacing (SCS) supported in the serving cell;

transmit a first message to the base station based on TDD uplink-downlink configuration information and the uplink SCS of the SIB, the first message being a random access preamble;

receive a second message from the base station, the second message being a response to the first message; and

transmit a third message to the base station using a carrier different from a carrier used to transmit the first message,

wherein the uplink SCS of the serving cell is determined depending on the TDD uplink-downlink configuration information of the serving cell, and

wherein i) payload size of scheduling information for resource allocation of the third message in the second message and ii) the number of subcarriers used for transmitting the third message are determined based on the uplink SCS.

8. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the processor receives downlink control information (DCI) from the base station through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

9. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the carrier to transmit the third message is configured by the DCI or the second message.

10. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the carrier to transmit the third message is configured by the SIB.

11. A method performed by a base station for a random access procedure in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting a system information block (SIB) to a user equipment (UE), wherein the SIB includes time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink configuration information for a serving cell of the UE and information on uplink subcarrier spacing (SCS) supported in the serving cell;

receiving a first message from the UE based on the TDD uplink-downlink configuration information and the uplink SCS of the SIB, the first message being a random access preamble;

transmitting a second message to the UE, the second message being a response to the first message; and

receiving a third message from the UE using a carrier different from a carrier used to receive the first message,

wherein the uplink SCS of the serving cell is determined depending on the TDD uplink-downlink configuration information of the serving cell, and

wherein i) a payload size of scheduling information for resource allocation of the third message in the second message and ii) the number of subcarriers used for transmitting the third message are determined based on the uplink SCS.

12. A base station configured to perform a random access procedure in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) module for transmitting/receiving a radio signal; and

a processor functionally connected with the RF module, wherein the processor is configured to:

transmit a system information block (SIB) to a user equipment (UE), wherein the SIB includes time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink configuration information for a serving cell of the UE and information on uplink subcarrier spacing (SCS) supported in the serving cell;

receive a first message from the UE based on the TDD uplink-downlink configuration information and the uplink SCS of the SIB, the first message being a random access preamble;

transmit a second message to the UE, the second message being a response to the first message; and

receive a third message from the UE using a carrier different from a carrier used to receive the first message,

wherein the uplink SCS of the serving cell is determined depending on the TDD uplink-downlink configuration information of the serving cell, and

wherein i) payload size of scheduling information for resource allocation of the third message in the second message and ii) the number of subcarriers used for transmitting the third message are determined based on the uplink SCS.
