User terminal and radio communication method
A user terminal according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes: a transmitting/receiving section that performs transmission and/or reception based on an Uplink-Downlink (UL-DL) configuration; and a control section that controls switching of the UL-DL configuration based on update information of the UL-DL configuration notified via a higher layer signaling, and the control section performs the switching at a timing that comes after a specific timing and satisfies a given condition. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, even when a UL-DL configuration is semi-statically configured to be changed in an RRC connected state, it is possible to reflect the change at an appropriate timing.
1. A terminal comprising:
a receiver that receives a Radio Resource Control (RRC) reconfiguration message; and
a processor that controls to perform a switching of symbol-based Uplink-Downlink (UL-DL) configuration at a timing of a first DL symbol of the symbol-based UL-DL configuration indicated by update information of the symbol-based UL-DL configuration included in the RRC reconfiguration message after a given time passes from a reception of the RRC reconfiguration message;
wherein a signal transmission direction of each of the symbol-based UL-DL is included in a set of a slot, and is set to one of a downlink, an uplink or a flexible indicating the uplink and the downlink according to a specific format, and wherein a group-common Physical Downlink control channel (GC-PDCCH) includes a Slot Format Indicator, SFI, field for indicating a slot format of the set of the UL-DL symbol of the slot,
wherein the update information includes:
information indicating the number of contiguous DL slots from a beginning to a direction of the end in the symbol-based UL-DL configuration,
information indicating the number of contiguous UL slots from the end to a direction of the beginning in the symbol-based UL-DL configuration,
information indicating the number of DL symbols following after a last DL slot of the number of the contiguous DL slots, and
information indicating the number of UL symbols following before a first UL slot of the number of the contiguous UL slots.
2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the given time is a processing delay of 10 ms.
3. A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:
receiving a Radio Resource Control (RRC) reconfiguration message; and
controlling to perform a switching of symbol-based Uplink-Downlink (UL-DL) configuration at a timing of a first DL symbol of the symbol-based UL-DL configuration indicated by update information of the symbol-based UL-DL configuration included in the RRC reconfiguration message after a given time passes from a reception of the RRC reconfiguration message;
wherein a signal transmission direction of each of the symbol-based UL-DL is included in a set of a slot, and is set to one of a downlink, an uplink or a flexible indicating the uplink and the downlink according to a specific format, and wherein a group-common Physical Downlink control channel (GC-PDCCH) includes a Slot Format Indicator, SFI, field for indicating a slot format of the set of the UL-DL symbol of the slot,
wherein the update information includes:
information indicating the number of contiguous DL slots from a beginning to a direction of the end in the symbol-based UL-DL configuration,
information indicating the number of contiguous UL slots from the end to a direction of the beginning in the symbol-based UL-DL configuration,
information indicating the number of DL symbols following after a last DL slot of the number of the contiguous DL slots, and
information indicating the number of UL symbols following before a first UL slot of the number of the contiguous UL slots.
4. A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein the terminal comprises:
a receiver that receives a Radio Resource Control (RRC) reconfiguration message; and
a processor that controls to perform a switching of symbol-based Uplink-Downlink (UL-DL) configuration at a timing of a first DL symbol of the symbol-based UL-DL configuration indicated by update information of the symbol-based UL-DL configuration included in the RRC reconfiguration message after a given time passes from a reception of the RRC reconfiguration message;
wherein a signal transmission direction of each of the symbol-based UL-DL is included in a set of a slot, and is set to one of a downlink, an uplink or a flexible indicating the uplink and the downlink according to a specific format, and wherein a group-common Physical Downlink control channel (GC-PDCCH) includes a Slot Format Indicator, SFI, field for indicating a slot format of the set of the UL-DL symbol of the slot, and
the base station comprises:
a transmitter that transmits the RRC reconfiguration message, wherein the update information includes:
information indicating the number of contiguous DL slots from a beginning to a direction of the end in the symbol-based UL-DL configuration,
information indicating the number of contiguous UL slots from the end to a direction of the beginning in the symbol-based UL-DL configuration,
information indicating the number of DL symbols following after a last DL slot of the number of the contiguous DL slots, and
information indicating the number of UL symbols following before a first UL slot of the number of the contiguous UL slots.
