Abstract

Disclosed is a method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, including receiving, from a base station, at least one parameter for a search space, monitoring, on the search space, downlink control information (DCI) related with power saving, the search space being identified based on the at least one parameter, and the DCI including a wake up signal indicating whether to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and a bandwidth part (BWP) indication related with the wake up signal, and performing a PDCCH monitoring based on the wake up signal and the BWP indication included in the DCI.

Claims (55)

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

receiving, from a base station, at least one parameter for a search space to monitor downlink control information (DCI) related with power saving;

receiving the DCI related with the power saving, on a common search space identified based on the at least one parameter, by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving,

identifying a wake up indicator included in the received DCI related with the power saving; and

performing a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring based on a value of the wake up indicator.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising identifying an offset indicating a time when the terminal starts monitoring the PDCCH for reception of the DCI related with the power saving.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI related with the power saving is scrambled by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving.

4. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein an indication for an active downlink bandwidth part is further included in the DCI related with the power saving.

5. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the PDCCH monitoring is performed on a configured period.

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

transmitting, to a terminal, at least one parameter for a search space to monitor downlink control information (DCI) related with power saving; and

transmitting the DCI related with the power saving, on a common search space identified based on the at least one parameter, by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving,

wherein a wake up indicator included in the DCI related with the power saving is identified at the terminal, and

wherein a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring is performed at the terminal based on a value of the wake up indicator.

7. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein an offset indicating a time when monitoring the PDCCH at the terminal for reception of the DCI related with the power saving is started is identified.

8. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI related with the power saving is scrambled by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving.

9. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein an indication for an active downlink bandwidth part is further included in the DCI related with the power saving.

10. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein the PDCCH monitoring is performed on a configured period.

11. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

receive, from a base station, at least one parameter for a search space to monitor downlink control information (DCI) related with power saving,

receive the DCI related with the power saving, on a common search space identified based on the at least one parameter, by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving,

identify a wake up indicator included in the received DCI related with the power saving, and

perform a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring based on a value of the wake up indicator.

12. The terminal of claim 11 ,

wherein the processor is further configured to identify an offset indicating a time when the terminal starts monitoring the PDCCH for reception of the DCI related with the power saving.

13. The terminal of claim 11 ,

wherein a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI related with the power saving is scrambled by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving.

14. The terminal of claim 11 ,

wherein an indication for an active downlink bandwidth part is further included in the DCI related with the power saving.

15. The terminal of claim 11 ,

wherein the PDCCH monitoring is performed on a configured period.

16. A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

transmit, to a terminal, at least one parameter for a search space to monitor downlink control information (DCI) related with power saving, and

transmit the DCI related with the power saving, on a common search space identified based on the at least one parameter, by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving,

wherein a wake up indicator included in the DCI related with the power saving is identified at the terminal, and

wherein a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring is performed at the terminal based on a value of the wake up indicator.

17. The base station of claim 16 ,

wherein an offset indicating a time when monitoring the PDCCH at the terminal for reception of the DCI related with the power saving is started is identified.

18. The base station of claim 16 ,

wherein a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI related with the power saving is scrambled by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for the power saving.

19. The base station of claim 16 ,

wherein an indication for an active downlink bandwidth part is further included in the DCI related with the power saving.

20. The base station of claim 16 ,

wherein the PDCCH monitoring is performed on a configured period.
