Abstract

The present disclosure relates to method and apparatus for controlling a transmission of a response signal in a wireless communication system. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication system, comprises receiving a signal for a paging from a network; and receiving downlink (DL) data related to the paging, wherein a transmission of at least one of a paging response for the paging or acknowledgment (ACK) information for the DL data is determined based on information included in the signal for the paging.

Claims (39)

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

receiving a paging from a network;

initiating a random access procedure after receiving the paging;

transmitting, to the network, a message 1 (Msg1) of the random access procedure including a preamble;

receiving, from the network, a message 2 (Msg2) of the random access procedure including a response for the preamble,

wherein the response includes an uplink (UL) grant;

transmitting, to the network, a message 3 (Msg3) of the random access procedure based on the UL grant,

wherein the Msg3 includes an early data transmission (EDT) cause; and

receiving, from the network, a message 4 (Msg4) of the random access procedure after transmitting the Msg3,

wherein the Msg4 includes downlink data related to the paging,

wherein the method further comprises determining whether a transmission of a paging response for the paging is required or not based on a configuration by the network,

wherein the Msg3 includes a non-access stratum (NAS) message for the paging response based on a determination that the transmission of the paging response is required, and

wherein the Msg3 excludes the NAS message for the paging response based on a determination that the transmission of the paging response is not required.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining whether a transmission of an acknowledgment (ACK) information for the downlink data is required or not based on the configuration by the network; and

transmitting, to the network, the ACK information for downlink data based on a determination that the transmission of the ACK information is required.

3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

in response to transmitting the ACK information, transitioning to an idle mode without receiving a radio resource control (RRC) connection release message from the network,

wherein the Msg3 excludes the NAS message for the paging response.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the NAS message for the paging response and the ACK information for the DL data are transmitted in a same message.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transitioning to a connected mode in response to receiving the DL data.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downlink data is received via a non-access stratum (NAS) protocol data unit (PDU) during the random access procedure.

7. A wireless device in a wireless communication system, comprising:

a memory;

a transceiver; and

at least one processor, operatively coupled to the memory and the transceiver, configured to:

control the transceiver to receive a paging from a network;

initiate a random access procedure after receiving the paging;

control the transceiver to transmit, to the network, a message 1 (Msg1) of the random access procedure including a preamble;

control the transceiver to receive, from the network, a message 2 (Msg2) of the random access procedure including a response for the preamble,

wherein the response includes an uplink (UL) grant;

control the transceiver to transmit, to the network, a message 3 (Msg3) of the random access procedure based on the UL grant,

wherein the Msg3 includes an early data transmission (EDT) cause; and

control the transceiver to receive, from the network, a message 4 (Msg4) of the random access procedure after transmitting the Msg3,

wherein the Msg4 includes downlink data related to the paging,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine whether a transmission of a paging response for the paging is required or not based on a configuration by the network,

wherein the Msg3 includes a non-access stratum (NAS) message for the paging response based on a determination that the transmission of the paging response is required, and

wherein the Msg3 excludes the NAS message for the paging response based on a determination that the transmission of the paging response is not required.
