Abstract

A method and apparatus for transmitting or receiving a control channel in a communication system. A method for transmitting control information by a base station includes: configuring a control resource set including a plurality of REGs; interleaving, on a frequency axis, the plurality of REGs included in the control resource set; configuring an REG pool including at least two interleaved REGs; configuring at least one CCE in the REG pool; and transmitting control information through a search space configured by the at least one CCE. Therefore, the present invention improves performance of a communication system.

Claims (27)

1. An operation method performed in a user equipment (UE) in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, a signaling message indicating a first method or a second method;

receiving, from the base station, first downlink control information (DCI) based on a first subcarrier spacing, the first DCI including first information indicating a slot m to which a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource is mapped and second information indicating a symbol n from which the PDSCH resource starts within the slot m; and

receiving, from the base station, a PDSCH in the PDSCH resource determined by the first information and the second information based on a second subcarrier spacing,

wherein each of m and n denotes an integer, the first information includes a slot offset between a slot in which the first DCI is received and the slot m, and the second information includes a symbol offset between a symbol in which the first DCI is received and the symbol n when the signaling message indicates the first method,

wherein, when the PDSCH is repeatedly transmitted in a plurality of slots, the PDSCH resource belongs to each of the plurality of slots and starts from the symbol n in each of the plurality of slots, and

the second information is encoded jointly with a third information indicating a number of symbols included in the PDSCH resource.

2. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the symbol in which the first DCI is received is a first symbol among one or more symbols used for receiving the first DCI.

3. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the first DCI is received from the base station in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

4. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the first subcarrier spacing is same as or different from the second subcarrier spacing.

5. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the second information includes an index of the symbol n as a start symbol of the PDSCH resource when the signaling message indicates the second method.

6. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein a symbol to which a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) for the PDSCH is mapped based on the first method is different from a symbol to which the DM-RS for the PDSCH is mapped based on the second method.

7. The operation method of claim 6 , wherein the DM-RS for the PDSCH based on the first method is mapped on the symbol n from which the PDSCH resource starts.

8. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the first information and the second information are included in a same field of the first DCI, and a size of the same field is determined based on a higher layer signaling from the base station.

9. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the signaling message indicating the first method or the second method is applied for a bandwidth part of a carrier in which the PDSCH is received.

10. The operation method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the base station, second DCI including the second information indicating same symbol n indicated by the second information included in the first DCI,

wherein the first DCI is received in a first PDCCH search space, and the second DCI is received in a second PDCCH search space.

11. An operation method performed in a base station in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a signaling message indicating a first method or a second method;

transmitting, to the UE, first downlink control information (DCI) based on a first subcarrier spacing, the first DCI including first information indicating a slot m to which a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource is mapped and second information indicating a symbol n from which the PDSCH resource starts within the slot m; and

transmitting, to the UE, a PDSCH in the PDSCH resource determined by the first information and the second information based on a second subcarrier spacing,

wherein each of m and n denotes an integer, the first information includes a slot offset between a slot in which the first DCI is transmitted and the slot m, and the second information includes a symbol offset between a symbol in which the first DCI is transmitted and the symbol n when the signaling message indicates the first method,

wherein, when the PDSCH is repeatedly transmitted in a plurality of slots, the PDSCH resource belongs to each of the plurality of slots and starts from the symbol n in each of the plurality of slots, and

the second information is encoded jointly with a third information indicating a number of symbols included in the PDSCH resource.

12. The operation method of claim 11 , wherein the symbol in which the first DCI is transmitted is a first symbol among one or more symbols used for transmitting the first DCI.

13. The operation method of claim 11 , wherein the first DCI is transmitted to the UE in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).
