Abstract

A method and apparatus for performing semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) deactivation in a wireless mobile communication system are disclosed. A base station (BS) transmits a downlink control channel to a user equipment (UE), and deactivates the SPS when a binary field indicating resource allocation information contained in the downlink control channel is entirely filled with ‘1’.

Claims (60)

1. A method for deactivating Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) transmission in a wireless mobile communication system, the method comprising:

performing, by a User Equipment (UE), a SPS transmission at an interval of a subframe period configured by a radio resource control (RRC) signal;

receiving, by the UE, a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) signal with a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI), wherein the PDCCH signal includes a first field related to a resource allocation; and

performing a procedure for deactivating the SPS transmission if the PDCCH signal satisfies conditions for SPS deactivation,

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation include:

the RNTI is a SPS Cell RNTI (SPS C-RNTI); and

the first field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the PDCCH signal further includes a second field related to Transmission Power Control (TPC) and a third field related to a DeModulation Reference Signal (DM RS),

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation further include:

the second field is entirely filled with ‘0’, and

the third field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PDCCH signal carries a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format ‘0’.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first field indicates a Resource Indication Value (RIV).

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

continuing, by the UE, the SPS transmission if the PDCCH signal does not satisfy the conditions for SPS deactivation.

6. A method for deactivating Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) reception in a wireless mobile communication system, the method comprising:

performing, by a Base Station (BS), a SPS reception at an interval of a subframe period configured by a radio resource control (RRC) signal;

transmitting, by the BS, a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) signal with a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI), wherein the PDCCH signal includes a first field related to a resource allocation; and

performing a procedure for deactivating the SPS reception if the PDCCH signal satisfies conditions for SPS deactivation,

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation include:

the RNTI is a SPS Cell RNTI (SPS C-RNTI); and

the first field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

7. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein the PDCCH signal further includes a second field related to Transmission Power Control (TPC) and a third field related to a DeModulation Reference Signal (DM RS),

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation further include:

the second field is entirely filled with ‘0’, and

the third field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the PDCCH signal carries a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format ‘0’.

9. The method of claim 6 , wherein the first field indicates a Resource Indication Value (RIV).

10. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:

continuing, by the BS, the SPS reception if the PDCCH signal does not satisfy the conditions for SPS deactivation.

11. A User Equipment (UE) used for in a wireless mobile communication system, the UE configured to:

perform a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) transmission at an interval of a subframe period configured by a radio resource control (RRC) signal;

receive a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) signal with a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI), wherein the PDCCH signal includes a first field related to a resource allocation; and

performing a procedure for deactivating the SPS transmission if the PDCCH signal satisfies conditions for SPS deactivation,

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation include:

the RNTI is a SPS Cell RNTI (SPS C-RNTI); and

the first field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

12. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the PDCCH signal further includes a second field related to Transmission Power Control (TPC) and a third field related to a DeModulation Reference Signal (DM RS),

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation further include:

the second field is entirely filled with ‘0’, and

the third field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

13. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the PDCCH signal carries a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format ‘0’.

14. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the first field indicates a Resource Indication Value (RIV).

15. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the UE is further configured to continue the SPS transmission if the PDCCH signal does not satisfy the conditions for SPS deactivation.

16. A Base Station (BS) used for in wireless mobile communication system, the BS configured to:

perform a SPS reception at an interval of a subframe period configured by a radio resource control (RRC) signal;

transmit a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) signal with a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI), wherein the PDCCH signal includes a first field related to a resource allocation; and

perform a procedure for deactivating the SPS reception if the PDCCH signal satisfies conditions for SPS deactivation,

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation include:

the RNTI is a SPS Cell RNTI (SPS C-RNTI); and

the first field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

17. The BS of claim 16 , wherein the PDCCH signal further includes a second field related to Transmission Power Control (TPC) and a third field related to a DeModulation Reference Signal (DM RS),

wherein the conditions for SPS deactivation further include:

the second field is entirely filled with ‘0’, and

the third field is entirely filled with ‘1’.

18. The BS of claim 16 , wherein the PDCCH signal carries a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format ‘0’.

19. The BS of claim 16 , wherein the first field indicates a Resource Indication Value (RIV).

20. The BS of claim 16 , wherein the BS is further configured to continue the SPS reception if the PDCCH signal does not satisfy the conditions for SPS deactivation.
