Abstract

Disclosed in the present disclosure are a method for transmitting and receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) in a wireless communication system, and a device therefor. Particularly, a method by which user equipment (UE) receives a PDSCH in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: receiving configuration information for the PDSCH, the configuration information including a plurality of TCI state configurations; receiving activation information, the plurality of TCI state configurations being activated by the activation information, and the activation information including mapping information about the activated TCI state configurations and code points of a transmission configuration indication (TCI) field in downlink control information; receiving the DCI including the TCI field; and receiving a plurality of PDSCH transmission occasions on the basis of the indication, through the TCI field, of a specific code point mapped to a plurality of TCI states, wherein the plurality of PDSCH transmission occasions correspond to the same transport block, the plurality of PDSCH transmission occasions are received in a time area resource on the basis of time division multiplexing (TDM), and the number of the plurality of PDSCH transmission occasions can be determined on the basis of the number of TCI states mapped to the specific code point.

Claims (46)

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

receiving configuration information,

wherein the configuration information includes information for a plurality of transmission configuration indication (TCI) states;

receiving an activation command,

wherein the activation command is used to map up to 8 TCI states of the plurality of TCI states to codepoints of a TCI field;

receiving downlink control information (DCI) including the TCI field; and

receiving physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission occasions of a same transport block (TB) based on a codepoint of the TCI field,

wherein, based on the configuration information including information for a repetition scheme set to a time division multiplexing (TDM) scheme, a number of the PDSCH transmission occasions is determined based on a number of TCI states mapped to the codepoint of the TCI field and the PDSCH transmission occasions are received in a slot, and

wherein, based on the configuration information including information for a repetition number, the number of the PDSCH transmission occasions is determined based on the repetition number and the PDSCH transmission occasions are received in consecutive slots.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on two TCI states being indicated based on the codepoint of the TCI field, the PDSCH transmission occasions include i) at least one first PDSCH transmission occasion to which a first TCI state is applied and ii) at least one second PDSCH transmission occasion to which a second TCI state is applied.

3. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein the DCI further includes a redundancy version (RV) field, and

wherein, based on the RV field, i) a RV applied to the at least one first PDSCH transmission occasion and ii) a RV applied to the at least one second PDSCH transmission occasion are set differently.

4. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein the DCI further includes a time domain resource assignment field.

5. The method of claim 4 ,

wherein, based on the TDM scheme, a time domain resource allocation for the at least one first PDSCH transmission occasion is determined based on the time domain resource assignment field, and

wherein a number of symbols for the at least one second PDSCH is same as a number of symbols based on the first time domain resource allocation for the at least one first PDSCH transmission occasion.

6. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the repetition number is configured to be a value equal to or greater than the number of TCI states mapped to the codepoint of the TCI field.

7. A user equipment (UE) operating in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

one or more transceivers;

one or more processors; and

one or more memories for storing instructions for operations executed by the one or more processors and coupled to the one or more processors;

wherein the operations comprising:

receiving configuration information,

wherein the configuration information includes information for a plurality of transmission configuration indication (TCI) states;

receiving an activation command,

wherein the activation command is used to map up to 8 TCI states of the plurality of TCI states to codepoints of a TCI field;

receiving downlink control information (DCI) including the TCI field; and

receiving physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission occasions of a same transport block (TB) based on a codepoint of the TCI field,

wherein, based on the configuration information including information for a repetition scheme set to a time division multiplexing (TDM) scheme, a number of the PDSCH transmission occasions is determined based on a number of TCI states mapped to the codepoint of the TCI field and the PDSCH transmission occasions are received in a slot, and

wherein, based on the configuration information including information for a repetition number, the number of the PDSCH transmission occasions is determined based on the repetition number and the PDSCH transmission occasions are received in consecutive slots.

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

one or more transceivers;

one or more processors; and

one or more memories for storing instructions for operations executed by the one or more processors and coupled to the one or more processors;

wherein the operations comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), configuration information,

wherein the configuration information includes information for a plurality of transmission configuration indication (TCI) states;

transmitting, to the UE, an activation command,

wherein the activation command is used to map up to 8 TCI states of the plurality of TCI states to codepoints of a TCI field;

transmitting, to the UE, downlink control information (DCI) including the TCI field; and

transmitting, to the UE, physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission occasions of a same transport block (TB) based on a codepoint of the TCI field,

wherein, based on the configuration information including information for a repetition scheme set to a time division multiplexing (TDM) scheme, a number of the PDSCH transmission occasions is determined based on a number of TCI states mapped to the codepoint of the TCI field and the PDSCH transmission occasions are transmitted in a slot, and

wherein, based on the configuration information including information for a repetition number, the number of the PDSCH transmission occasions is determined based on the repetition number and the PDSCH transmission occasions are transmitted in consecutive slots.
