Abstract

Present application discloses a method and a device in a node for wireless communications. A first node maintains a first timer; and as a response to expiration of the first timer, starts to monitor a PDCCH on at least second BWP; herein, a first BWP is an active BWP, the first timer depending on the first BWP, while the second BWP is a BWP on a first serving cell other than a default BWP, where the first BWP is on the first serving cell; the action of maintaining a first timer includes: as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, starting or restarting the first timer; the first condition set includes receiving a PDCCH on the first BWP, the PDCCH being used for a Downlink assignment or Uplink Grant and identified by a first identifier; this method and device can enhance the transmission reliability.

Claims (30)

1 . A first node for wireless communications, characterized in comprising:

a first processor, maintaining a first timer; and as a response to expiration of the first timer, starting to monitor a PDCCH on at least second Bandwidth Part (BWP);

wherein a first BWP is an active BWP, the first timer depending on the first BWP, while the second BWP is a BWP on a first serving cell other than a default BWP, where the first BWP and the second BWP are both on the first serving cell; the action of maintaining a first timer includes: as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, starting or restarting the first timer; the first condition set includes receiving a PDCCH on the first BWP, the PDCCH being used for a Downlink assignment or Uplink Grant, and the PDCCH being identified by a first identifier; the default BWP on the first serving cell is indicated by a defaultDownlinkBWP-Id or an initialDownlinkBWP.

2 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first BWP is the default BWP on the first serving cell.

3 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the at least second BWP includes/include the default BWP on the first serving cell.

4 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in comprising:

the first processor, monitoring a PDCCH on a BWP of the at least second BWP, and as a response to receiving the PDCCH, stopping monitoring a PDCCH on any BWP of the at least second BWP other than the BWP.

5 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in comprising:

a first receiver, receiving a first message;

wherein the first message is used for configuring the second BWP.

6 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first node has a missed detection of a first signaling, the first signaling indicating the second BWP, the first signaling being non-UE dedicated.

7 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that a bandwidth of the second BWP is smaller than the first BWP.

8 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first condition set comprises: receiving a MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU) in a configured Downlink assignment for unicast or MBS multicast.

9 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first condition set comprises: transmitting a MAC PDU in an Uplink Grant, and not receiving an indication of LBT failure from lower layers.

10 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the first BWP is a BWP on the first serving cell other than the default BWP and an initial BWP.

11 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the at least second BWP includes/include a BWP other than the second BWP, and the at least second BWP includes/include the default BWP on the first serving cell.

12 . The first node according to claim 1 , characterized in that the sentence of starting to monitor a PDCCH on at least second BWP includes a meaning as follows: monitoring a PDCCH on the default BWP and the second BWP on the first serving cell in TDD manner.

13 . A method in a first node for wireless communications, characterized in comprising:

maintaining a first timer; and as a response to expiration of the first timer, starting to monitor a PDCCH on at least second Bandwidth Part (BWP);

wherein a first BWP is an active BWP, the first timer depending on the first BWP, while the second BWP is a BWP on a first serving cell other than a default BWP, where the first BWP and the second BWP are both on the first serving cell; the action of maintaining a first timer includes: as a response to any condition in a first condition set being satisfied, starting or restarting the first timer; the first condition set includes receiving a PDCCH on the first BWP, the PDCCH being used for a Downlink assignment or Uplink Grant, and the PDCCH being identified by a first identifier; the default BWP on the first serving cell is indicated by a defaultDownlinkBWP-Id or an initialDownlinkBWP.

14 . The method in the first node according to claim 13 , characterized in that the first BWP is the default BWP on the first serving cell.

15 . The method in the first node according to claim 13 , characterized in that the at least second BWP includes/include the default BWP on the first serving cell.

16 . The method in the first node according to claim 13 , characterized in comprising:

monitoring a PDCCH on a BWP of the at least second BWP, and as a response to receiving the PDCCH, stopping monitoring a PDCCH on any BWP of the at least second BWP other than the BWP.

17 . The method in the first node according to claim 13 , characterized in comprising:

receiving a first message;

wherein the first message is used for configuring the second BWP.

18 . The method in the first node according to claim 13 , characterized in that the first node has a missed detection of a first signaling, the first signaling indicating the second BW, the first signaling being non-UE dedicated.

19 . The method in the first node according to claim 13 , characterized in that a bandwidth of the second BWP is smaller than the first BWP.

20 . The method in the first node according to claim 13 , characterized in that the first condition set comprises: receiving a MAC PDU in a configured Downlink assignment for unicast or MBS multicast.
