Method and apparatus for transceiving control signal
A method and apparatus for receiving a control signal in a wireless communication system in which a plurality of cells are merged. The method includes: receiving a signal indicating a deactivation of at least one cell from among the plurality of cells; and deactivating the at least one cell. The deactivation-indicating signal indicates the deactivation of the at least one cell to all of a plurality of user equipments configured to merge the at least one cell.
1. A method for receiving a control signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system in which a plurality of cells are aggregated, the method comprising:
receiving a signal indicating deactivation of at least one cell among the plurality of the cells; and
deactivating the at least one cell,
wherein the signal indicating the deactivation commonly indicates the deactivation of the at least one cell to a plurality of UEs configured to aggregate the at least one cell, and
wherein the receiving the signal indicating the deactivation includes detecting a PDCCH scrambled with a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) common to the plurality of UEs and receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) scheduled by the PDCCH, and wherein the signal indicating the deactivation is received via the PDSCH.
2. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein when the signal indicating the deactivation is received on a primary cell other than the at least one cell, the signal indicating the deactivation includes a cell identifier (ID) value, and
wherein when the signal indicating the deactivation is received on each of the at least one cell, the signal indicating the deactivation does not include cell identification information.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the deactivating the at least one cell includes stopping transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) on the at least one cell, stopping transmission of channel quality information (CQI), precoding matrix index (PMI) information, rank indicator (RI) information, and precoding type indicator (PTI) for the at least one cell, stopping monitoring of a PDCCH on the at least one cell and/or for the at least one cell, stopping monitoring of a PDSCH on the at least one cell, and stopping radio resource management (RRM) measurement for the at least one cell.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the wireless communication system is a frequency division duplex (FDD) system, the deactivating the at least one cell includes stopping an operation related to uplink signal transmission via an uplink carrier included in each of the at least one cell or stopping an operation related to downlink signal reception via a downlink carrier.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the wireless communication system is a time division duplex (TDD) system, the deactivating the at least one cell includes stopping an operation related to uplink signal transmission in an uplink subframe included in each of the at least one cell or stopping an operation related to downlink signal reception in a downlink subframe.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the signal indicating the deactivation includes a cell-specific message or a UE group-specific message.
7. A user equipment (UE) for receiving a control signal in a wireless communication system in which a plurality of cells are aggregated, the UE comprising:
a radio frequency (RF) unit; and
a processor, the processor configured to receive a signal indicating deactivation of at least one cell among the plurality of cells through the RF unit, and deactivate the at least one cell,
wherein the signal indicating the deactivation commonly indicates the deactivation of the at least one cell to a plurality of UEs configured to aggregate the at least one cell, and
wherein the receiving the signal indicating the deactivation includes detecting a PDCCH scrambled with a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) common to the plurality of UEs and receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) scheduled by the PDCCH, and wherein the signal indicating the deactivation is received via the PDSCH.
8. The user equipment (UE) of claim 7 ,
wherein when the signal indicating the deactivation is received on a primary cell other than the at least one cell, the signal indicating the deactivation includes a cell identifier (ID) value, and
wherein when the signal indicating the deactivation is received on each of the at least one cell, the signal indicating the deactivation does not include cell identification information.
9. The user equipment (UE) of claim 7 , wherein the deactivating the at least one cell includes stopping transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) on the at least one cell, stopping transmission of channel quality information (CQI), precoding matrix index (PMI) information, rank indicator (RI) information, and precoding type indicator (PTI) on the at least one cell, stopping monitoring of a PDCCH on the at least one cell and/or for the at least one cell, stopping monitoring of a PDSCH on the at least one cell, and stopping radio resource management (RRM) measurement for the at least one cell.
10. The user equipment (UE) of claim 7 , wherein when the wireless communication system is a frequency division duplex (FDD) system, the deactivating the at least one cell includes stopping an operation related to uplink signal transmission via an uplink carrier included in each of the at least one cell or stopping an operation related to downlink signal reception via a downlink carrier.
11. The user equipment (UE) of claim 7 , wherein when the wireless communication system is a time division duplex (TDD) system, the deactivating the at least one cell includes stopping an operation related to uplink signal transmission in a uplink subframe included in each of the at least one cell or stopping an operation related to downlink signal reception in a downlink subframe.
