Abstract

A wireless device receives, in an idle mode and by using a paging message, a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) command indicating activation of SPS transmission. The wireless device performs the SPS transmission in the idle mode according to the SPS command.

Claims (27)

1. A method for communicating in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a wireless device and comprising:

receiving, from a base station, configuration related to a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS);

receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), wherein the DCI is received on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) while the wireless device is in a radio resource control (RRC) idle state,

wherein the DCI includes information indicating whether a paging message includes a SPS command;

receiving, from the base station, a paging message including the SPS command for indicating an activation of SPS transmission, wherein the paging message is received while the wireless device is in the RRC idle state,

wherein the SPS command includes an identifier, and

wherein the paging message is transmitted in a paging monitoring cycle based on the identifier; and

performing, while the wireless device is in the RRC idle state, the SPS transmission on the SPS command and the configuration related to the SPS.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein an identifier masked to cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI indicates that the SPS command is included in the paging message.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting a response message for confirming a reception of the SPS command included in the paging message.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein a predetermined random access preamble is transmitted as the response message.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the base station, an SPS command indicating a continuation of the SPS transmission cyclically,

determining the SPS command indicating the continuation of the SPS transmission has not been received for a specific time,

wherein the SPS transmission is de-activated based on the SPS command indicating the continuation of the SPS transmission not being received for the specific time.

6. A device configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the device comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a radio signal; and

a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and configured to:

receive, from a base station, configuration related to a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS);

receive, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), wherein the DCI is received on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) while the device is in a radio resource control (RRC) idle state,

wherein the DCI includes information indicating whether a paging message includes a SPS command;

receive, from the base station, a paging message including the SPS command for indicating an activation of SPS transmission, wherein the paging message is received while the device is in the RRC idle state,

wherein the SPS command includes an identifier, and

wherein the paging message is transmitted in a paging monitoring cycle based on the identifier; and

perform, while the device is in the RRC idle state, the SPS transmission based on the SPS command and the configuration related to the SPS.

7. The device of claim 6 , wherein an identifier masked to cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI indicates that the SPS command is included in the paging message.
