Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an operating method of a terminal for transceiving data to/from a base station in a system that supports a plurality of component carriers. The method includes receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) masked using a terminal identifier (cell-radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI)) or a semi-persistent scheduling terminal identifier (SPS C-RNTI) through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); determining a component carrier for transceiving data to/from the base station; and transceiving data to/from the base station through the determined component carrier. The determining includes determining the component carrier which has received the PDCCH as a component carrier for receiving downlink data, and determining an uplink component carrier linked with the component carrier which has received the PDCCH as a component carrier for transmitting uplink data.

Claims (25)

1. An operating method of a terminal for transceiving data to/from a base station in a system which supports a plurality of component carriers, the method comprising:

receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) masked using a terminal identifier (cell-radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI)) or a semi-persistent scheduling terminal identifier (SPS C-RNTI) through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH);

determining a component carrier for transceiving data to/from the base station; and

transceiving data to/from the base station through the determined component carrier,

wherein the determining comprises determining the component carrier which has received the PDCCH as a component carrier for receiving downlink data, and determining an uplink component carrier linked with the component carrier which has received the PDCCH as a component carrier for transmitting uplink data.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI masked using the terminal identifier is transmitted to a common search space.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI does not contain a carrier indicator field (CIF).

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is a downlink format for physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) scheduling or a downlink format for simple scheduling of one physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) code-word.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the receiving of the DCI comprises:

receiving a control region through at least one of the plurality of component carriers from the base station; and

performing blind decoding on the control region.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the performing of the blind decoding comprises performing blind decoding on a common search space of a primary component carrier or a downlink component carrier in a PDCCH monitoring set.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the component carrier which has received the PDCCH is linked with at least one uplink component carrier.

8. A terminal for transceiving data to/from a base station in a system which supports a plurality of component carriers, the terminal comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit for transceiving a radio signal to/from an outside thereof; and

a control unit connected to the RF unit,

wherein the control unit controls the RF unit to receive, from the base station, DCI masked using a terminal identifier C-RNTI) or a semi-persistent scheduling terminal identifier (SPS C-RNTI) through a PDCCH,

wherein the control unit controls the terminal to determine the component carrier which has received the PDCCH as a component carrier for receiving downlink data and to determine an uplink component carrier linked with the component carrier which has received the PDCCH as a component carrier for transmitting uplink data, and

wherein the control unit controls the RF unit to transceive data to/from the base station through the determined component carrier.

9. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the DCI masked using the terminal identifier is transmitted to a common search space.

10. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the DCI does not contain a CIF.

11. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the DCI is a downlink format for physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) scheduling or a downlink format for simple scheduling of one physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) code-word.

12. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the control unit controls the RF unit to receive a control region through at least one of the plurality of component carriers from the base station, and controls the terminal to perform blind decoding on the control region.

13. The terminal of claim 12 , wherein the control unit controls the terminal to perform blind decoding on a common search space of a primary component carrier or a downlink component carrier in a PDCCH monitoring set.

14. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the component carrier which has received the PDCCH is linked with at least one uplink component carrier.
