Abstract

Provided is s a method for a base station to allocate a time interval resource to transceive a downlink data channel (PDSCH) or an uplink data channel (PUSCH). The method include allocating a time interval resource for each OFDM symbol on the basis of a slot or a mini-slot, transmitting, to a terminal, time interval resource configuration information including OFDM symbol allocation data for OFDM symbols used for data channel transception in the slot or the mini-slot, and transmitting, to the terminal, control information selecting one of the symbol allocation data included in the time interval resource configuration information.

Claims (53)

1. A base station, comprising:

a transceiver;

a receiver; and

a controller which controls the transceiver and receiver thereby performing operations including:

transmitting, to a wireless device, a radio resource control (RRC) signal including information on one or more allocations of a time-domain resource,

wherein the time-domain resource includes at least one or more orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols,

wherein, based on the information, a number of OFDM symbols are determined for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), and

wherein the determined number of OFDM symbols is smaller than or equal to a number of OFDM symbols included in a slot; and

transmitting, to the wireless device, downlink control information (DCI), including a field including a bit string,

wherein the bit string in the field relates to a row index of an allocation table, and

wherein the allocation table includes information on a starting OFDM symbol and the number of the OFDM symbols which is smaller than or equal to the number of OFDM symbols included in the slot.

2. The base station of claim 1 , wherein the bit string is 3 bits in length.

3. The base station of claim 1 , wherein the DCI further includes information on one or more allocations of a frequency-domain resource.

4. The base station of claim 1 , wherein the base station supports a new radio access technology (NR).

5. The base station of claim 1 , wherein the base station supports different numerologies which are defined by a subcarrier spacing (SCS).

6. The base station of claim 1 , wherein the operations further include:

transmitting, to the wireless device, downlink data via the PDSCH; and

receiving, from the wireless device, uplink data via the PUSCH.

7. The base station of claim 1 , wherein the number of the OFDM symbols is a maximum of 14.

8. A wireless device, comprising:

a transceiver;

a receiver; and

a controller which controls the transceiver and receiver thereby performing operations including:

receiving, from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) signal including information on one or more allocations of a time-domain resource,

wherein the time-domain resource includes at least one or more orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols,

wherein, based on the information, a number of OFDM symbols are determined for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), and

wherein the determined number of OFDM symbols is smaller than or equal to a number of OFDM symbols included in a slot; and

receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI), including a field including a bit string,

wherein the bit string in the field relates to a row index of an allocation table, and

wherein the allocation table includes information on a starting OFDM symbol and the number of the OFDM symbols which is smaller than or equal to the number of OFDM symbols included in the slot.

9. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the bit string is 3 bits in length.

10. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the DCI further includes information on one or more allocations of a frequency-domain resource.

11. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the wireless device supports a new radio access technology (NR).

12. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the wireless device supports different numerologies which are defined by a subcarrier spacing (SCS).

13. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the operations further include:

receiving, from the base station, downlink data via the PDSCH; and

transmitting, to the base station, uplink data via the PUSCH.

14. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the number of the OFDM symbols is a maximum of 14.

15. An operation method of wireless device, comprising:

receiving, from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) signal including information on one or more allocations of a time-domain resource,

wherein the time-domain resource includes at least one or more orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols,

wherein, based on the information, a number of OFDM symbols are determined for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), and

wherein the determined number of OFDM symbols is smaller than or equal to a number of OFDM symbols included in a slot; and

receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI), including a field including a bit string,

wherein the bit string in the field relates to a row index of an allocation table, and

wherein the allocation table includes information on a starting OFDM symbol and the number of the OFDM symbols which is smaller than or equal to the number of OFDM symbols included in the slot.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the bit string is 3 bits in length.

17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the DCI further includes information on one or more allocations of a frequency-domain resource.

18. The method of claim 15 , wherein the wireless device supports a new radio access technology (NR).

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the wireless device supports different numerologies which are defined by a subcarrier spacing (SCS).

20. The method of claim 18 , further comprising:

receiving, from the base station, downlink data via the PDSCH; and

transmitting, to the base station, uplink data via the PUSCH.
