Abstract

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) is provided. The method includes receiving, from a base station, a message including configuration information of a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-acknowledgement (ACK) feedback mode for a multicast semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) without physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) scheduling, receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) for activation of the multicast SPS PDSCH without PDCCH scheduling, receiving, from the base station, the multicast SPS PDSCH without PDCCH scheduling based on the activation of the multicast SPS PDSCH without PDCCH scheduling, and transmitting, to the base station, HARQ-ACK information for reception of the multicast SPS PDSCH without PDCCH based on the HARQ-ACK feedback mode for the multicast SPS PDSCH without PDCCH scheduling.

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

receiving, from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message including configuration information to indicate a feedback mode for a multicast semi- persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) for a multicast data, the feedback mode being set to an acknowledgement (ACK)—negative-ACK (NACK) mode or a NACK only mode;

receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) for an activation of the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data;

in response to the activation of the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data, receiving, from the base station, a first SPS PDSCH for the multicast data based on the DCI; and

receiving, from the base station, a second SPS PDSCH for the multicast data after the first SPS PDSCH,

wherein a feedback mode of the second SPS PDSCH for the multicast data is determined based on the configuration information included in the RRC message, and

wherein the ACK-NACK mode is applied to a feedback of the first SPS PDSCH for the multicast data.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

in case that the feedback mode is set to the NACK only mode and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) includes hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACK information with a NACK value, transmitting, to the base station, the HARQ-ACK information with the NACK value.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

in case that the feedback mode is set to the ACK-NACK mode and a transport block is decoded correctly, generating hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACK information with an ACK value,

in case that the feedback mode is set to the ACK-NACK mode and a transport block is not decoded correctly, generating HARQ-ACK information with a NACK value.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the base station, DCI for releasing the multicast-SPS PDSCH for the multicast data, wherein the ACK-NACK mode is applied to feedback the DCI for releasing the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data.

5. A method performed by a base station in a communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a radio resource control (RRC) message including configuration information to indicate a feedback mode for a multicast semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) for a multicast data, the feedback mode being set to an acknowledgement (ACK)—negative-ACK (NACK) mode or a NACK only mode;

transmitting, to the UE, downlink control information (DCI) for an activation of the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data;

in response to the activation of the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data, transmitting, to the UE, a first SPS PDSCH for the multicast data based on the DCI; and

transmitting, to the UE, a second SPS PDSCH for the multicast data after the first SPS PDSCH,

wherein a feedback mode of the second SPS PDSCH for the multicast data is determined based on the configuration information included in the RRC message, and

wherein the ACK-NACK mode is applied to a feedback of the first SPS PDSCH for the multicast data.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

in case that the feedback mode is set to the NACK only mode and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) includes hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACK information with a NACK value, receiving, from the UE, the HARQ-ACK information with the NACK value.

7. The method of claim 5 ,

wherein in case that the feedback mode is set to the ACK-NACK mode and a transport block is decoded correctly, hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACK information with an ACK value is generated, and

wherein in case that the feedback mode is set to the ACK-NACK mode and a transport block is not decoded correctly, HARQ-ACK information with a NACK value is generated.

8. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

transmitting, to the UE, DCI for releasing the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data; and

wherein the ACK-NACK mode is applied to feedback the DCI for releasing the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data.

9. A user equipment (UE) in a communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller coupled with the transceiver, the controller configured to:

receive, from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message including configuration information to indicate a feedback mode for a multicast semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) for a multicast data the feedback mode being set to an acknowledgement (ACK)—negative-ACK (NACK) mode or a NACK only mode,

receive, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) for activation of the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data,

in response to the activation of the SPS PDSCH for the multicast data. receive, from the base station, a first SPS PDSCH for the multicast data based on the DCI, and
