Method and apparatus for handling LCP restriction and HARQ process number
A method for wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) is provided. The method includes: receiving, from a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) message that includes a first configuration indicating a first parameter associated with a first bandwidth part (BWP) and a second configuration indicating a second parameter associated with a second BWP; receiving, from the BS, downlink control information (DCI) having a DCI format, the DCI indicating either a data reception or a data transmission on a BWP, and the DCI including a field indicating a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number to be applied by the UE for the data reception or the data transmission; determining whether a bit length of the field is fixed or variable according to the DCI format; and in a case that the bit length of the field is variable, determining the bit length of the field according to one of the first parameter and the second parameter that is associated with the BWP.
1. A user equipment (UE) comprising:
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media containing computer-executable instructions embodied therein; and
at least one processor coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, the at least one processor configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
receive, from a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) message that includes a first configuration indicating a first parameter associated with a first bandwidth part (BWP) and a second configuration indicating a second parameter associated with a second BWP;
receive, from the BS, downlink control information (DCI) having a DCI format, the DCI indicating one of a data reception and a data transmission on a BWP, and the DCI including a field indicating a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number to be applied by the UE for the data reception or data transmission;
determine whether a bit length of the field is one of fixed and variable according to the DCI format; and
in a case that the bit length of the field is variable, determine the bit length of the field according to one of the first parameter that is associated with the first BWP and the second parameter that is associated with the second BWP.
2. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the RRC message is one of an RRCReconfiguration message, an RRCResume message, an RRCReestablishment message, an RRCSetup message, and a downlink (DL) unicast RRC message.
3. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the first configuration is one of a BWP-UplinkDedicated information element (IE) and a PUSCH-Config IE.
4. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the first configuration is one of a BWP-DownlinkDedicated information element (IE) and a PDSCH-Config IE.
5. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are different downlink (DL) BWPs.
6. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are different uplink (UL) BWPs.
7. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the first BWP is a downlink (DL) BWP and the second BWP is an uplink (UL) BWP.
8. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are in a same cell.
9. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the first BWP is in a first cell and the second BWP is in a second cell different from the first cell.
10. A method for wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) message that includes a first configuration indicating a first parameter associated with a first bandwidth part (BWP) and a second configuration indicating a second parameter associated with a second BWP;
receiving, from the BS, downlink control information (DCI) having a DCI format, the DCI indicating one of a data reception and a data transmission on a BWP, and the DCI including a field indicating a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number to be applied by the UE for the data reception or the data transmission;
determining whether a bit length of the field is one of fixed and variable according to the DCI format; and
in a case that the bit length of the field is variable, determining the bit length of the field according to one of the first parameter that is associate with the first BWP and the second parameter that is associated with the second BWP.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the RRC message is one of an RRCReconfiguration message, an RRCResume message, an RRCReestablishment message, an RRCSetup message, and a downlink (DL) unicast RRC message.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first configuration is one of a BWP-UplinkDedicated information element (IE) and a PUSCH-Config IE.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first configuration is one of a BWP-DownlinkDedicated information element (IE) and a PDSCH-Config IE.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are different downlink (DL) BWPs.
15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are different uplink (UL) BWPs.
16. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first BWP is a DL BWP and the second BWP is a UL BWP.
17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first BWP and the second BWP are in a same cell.
18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first BWP is in a first cell and the second BWP is in a second cell different from the first cell.
