Abstract

A method by which a terminal receives data through a plurality of layers of a base station in a wireless communication system is disclosed. Particularly, the method comprises the steps of: receiving, from the base station, the data, which was divided into a plurality of first code blocks, and a particular downlink control indicator (DCI) for the data; and receiving, from the base station, a plurality of second code blocks according to the particular DCI, wherein all of the plurality of second code blocks are received through the same layer.

Claims (29)

1. A method for receiving data in a user equipment (UE) through a plurality of layers of a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from the base station, the data, which are divided into a plurality of first code blocks, and a specific downlink control indicator (DCI) for the data; and

receiving, from the base station, a plurality of second code blocks based on the specific DCI,

wherein all of the plurality of second code blocks are received through a same layer,

wherein the plurality of second code blocks are received based on response signals to each of the plurality of first code blocks transmitted based on the specific DCI,

wherein the plurality of second code blocks are related to the plurality of first code blocks having Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) as a response signal,

wherein whether a first DCI including code block based scheduling information or a second DCI including transport block based scheduling information is monitored is configured based on a number of response signals having NACK among the response signals to each of the plurality of first code blocks,

wherein the first DCI is monitored when the number of the response signals having NACK is equal to or smaller than a threshold value and the second DCI is monitored when the number of the response signals having NACK is greater than the threshold value, and

wherein a first search space configured for monitoring the first DCI is different from a second search space configured for monitoring the second DCI.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the same layer is selected based on a channel state of each of the plurality of layers.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specific DCI includes puncturing information of a specific time domain, and the plurality of second code blocks correspond to at least one first code block of which at least a portion is included in the specific time domain.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the puncturing information of the specific time domain includes a start position and time duration information, which are punctured, of the specific time domain.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the data are decoded based on only the plurality of second code blocks.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein data different from the data are received through the other layers except the same data among the plurality of layers.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of first code blocks are received in a transport block level including at least one of the plurality of first code blocks.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein values of redundancy versions of each of the plurality of first code blocks and each of the plurality of second code blocks are set independently from each other.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of first code blocks and the plurality of second code blocks are related to same data.

10. A user equipment (UE) for receiving data through a plurality of layers of a base station in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) module for transmitting and receiving signals to and from the base station; and

a processor connected with the RF module, receiving the data, which are divided into a plurality of first code blocks, and a specific downlink control indicator (DCI) for the data, and receiving a plurality of second code blocks based on the specific DCI,

wherein all of the plurality of second code blocks are received through a same layer,

wherein the plurality of second code blocks are received based on response signals to each of the plurality of first code blocks transmitted based on the specific DCI,

wherein the plurality of second code blocks are related to the plurality of first code blocks having Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) as a response signal,

wherein whether a first DCI including code block based scheduling information or a second DCI including transport block based scheduling information is monitored is configured based on a number of response signals having NACK among the response signals to each of the plurality of first code blocks,

wherein the first DCI is monitored when the number of the response signals having NACK is equal to or smaller than a threshold value and the second DCI is monitored when the number of the response signals having NACK is greater than the threshold value, and

wherein a first search space configured for monitoring the first DCI is different from a second search space configured for monitoring the second DCI.

11. The UE of claim 10 , wherein the same layer is selected based on a channel state of each of the plurality of layers.

12. The UE of claim 10 , wherein values of redundancy versions of each of the plurality of first code blocks and each of the plurality of second code blocks are set independently from each other.

13. The UE of claim 10 , wherein the specific DCI includes puncturing information of a specific time domain, and the plurality of second code blocks correspond to at least one first code block of which at least a portion is included in the specific time domain.
