Method and apparatus for transmitting a HARQ codebook based on reference time
View Patent ↗An operation method of a terminal in a communication system may comprise: receiving one or more data units from a base station; generating a HARQ codebook for at least one dada unit of the one or more data units at a reference time; and transmitting the HARQ codebook to the base station, wherein the reference time is shared by the terminal and the base station.
1. An operation method of a terminal in a communication system, the operation method comprising:
receiving one or more data units from a base station; and
transmitting a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook for at least one data unit among the one or more data units not before a reference time to the base station, and
wherein the reference time is shared by the terminal and the base station,
when a HARQ-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) for downlink control information (DCI) indicating release of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration is transmitted to the base station, the reference time is set to a time not before a time required for processing of the HARQ-ACK, and
the HARQ-ACK is included in the HARQ codebook.
2. The operation method according to claim 1 , further comprising receiving, from the base station, DCI triggering transmission of the HARQ codebook.
3. The operation method according to claim 2 , wherein the reference time is implicitly indicated by information included in the DCI.
4. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the reference time is set based on a channel on which the HARQ codebook is transmitted.
5. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more data units are received through one or more aggregated carriers or resources according to one or more SPSs.
6. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the HARQ codebook includes a HARQ-ACK for the at least one data unit received through one or more aggregated carriers that are active at the reference time, or HARQ-ACKs for data units received in one or more aggregated carriers that are active at the reference time and one or more aggregated carriers that are inactive at the reference time.
7. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein the HARQ codebook includes a HARQ-ACK for the at least one data unit received in resources according to one or more SPSs that are active at the reference time, or HARQ-ACKs for data units received in resources according to one or more SPSs that are active at the reference time and one or more SPSs that are inactive at the reference time.
8. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein when the HARQ codebook includes a HARQ-ACK for the at least one data unit received in one or more aggregated carriers that are active at the reference time, a HARQ buffer for one or more aggregated carriers that are inactive is flushed at a preset time.
9. The operation method according to claim 8 , wherein the preset time is after transmission of the HARQ codebook.
10. The operation method according to claim 1 , wherein when the HARQ codebook includes a HARQ-ACK for the at least one data unit received in resources according to one or more SPSs that are active at the reference time, a HARQ buffer for one or more SPSs that are inactive is flushed at a preset time.
11. An operation method of a base station in a communication system, the operation method comprising:
transmitting one or more data units to a terminal;
receiving a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook for at least one data unit among the one or more data units from the terminal; and
interpreting the HARQ codebook based on a reference time,
wherein the reference time is shared by the terminal and the base station,
when a HARQ-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) for downlink control information (DCI) indicating release of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration is received from the terminal, the reference time is set to a time not before a time required for processing of the HARQ-ACK, and
the HARQ-ACK is included in the HARQ codebook.
12. The operation method according to claim 11 , further comprising transmitting, to the terminal, DCI triggering transmission of the HARQ codebook, wherein the DCI includes information indicating the reference time.
13. The operation method according to claim 11 , wherein the one or more data units are transmitted through one or more aggregated carriers or resources according to one or more SPSs.
14. The operation method according to claim 11 , wherein the HARQ codebook includes a HARQ-ACK for the at least one data unit received in one or more aggregated carriers that are active at the reference time, HARQ-ACKs for data units received in one or more aggregated carriers that are active at the reference time and one or more aggregated carriers that are inactive at the reference time, a HARQ-ACK for the at least one data unit received in resources according to one or more SPSs that are active at the reference time, or HARQ-ACKs for data units received in resources according to one or more SPSs that are active at the reference time and one or more SPSs that are inactive at the reference time.
15. A terminal in a communication system, the terminal comprising:
a processor;
a memory electronically communicating with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory,
wherein when executed by the processor, the instructions cause the terminal to:
receive one or more data units from a base station; and
transmit a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook for at least one data unit of the one or more data units not before a reference time to the base station,
wherein the reference time is shared by the terminal and the base station,
when a HARQ-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) for downlink control information (DCI) indicating release of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration is transmitted to the base station, the reference time is set to a time not before a time required for processing of the HARQ-ACK, and
the HARQ-ACK is included in the HARQ codebook.
16. The terminal according to claim 15 , wherein the instructions further cause the terminal to receive, from the base station, DCI triggering transmission of the HARQ codebook, and the DCI includes information indicating the reference time.
17. The terminal according to claim 15 , wherein when the HARQ codebook includes a HARQ-ACK for the at least one data unit received in one or more aggregated carriers that are active at the reference time, a HARQ buffer for one or more aggregated carriers that are inactive is flushed at a preset time.
