User terminal and radio communication method
To suitably perform communication using a new control unit, even in the case of using the new control unit comprised of the number of subcarriers different from that of the existing resource block, a user terminal according to one aspect of the present invention is characterized by having a receiving section that receives information on a first resource unit comprised of subcarriers lower in number than a predetermined number, and a control section which identifies a frequency region of a second resource unit comprised of the same number of subcarriers as the predetermined number based on the information, and controls communication using the first resource unit inside the frequency region.
1. A terminal comprising:
a receiver that receives information related to a first resource unit that consists of subcarriers lower in number than a predetermined number; and
a processor which identifies a frequency region of a second resource unit comprised of a same number of subcarriers as the predetermined number based on the information, and controls communication using the first resource unit inside the frequency region,
wherein the processor uses a sequence shorter or longer than a reference signal sequence for the second resource unit, as a reference signal sequence for the first resource unit.
2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the subcarriers constituting the first resource unit include discontiguous subcarriers.
3. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the processor performs control for mapping a reference signal used in the first resource unit according to a resource mapping rule different from a resource mapping rule for a reference signal used in the second resource unit.
4. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein when data is scheduled in both the first resource unit and the second resource unit, the processor maps data to resources of the second resource unit with lower priority placed on resources of the first resource unit.
5. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein when data is scheduled in the first resource unit, based on the number of resources obtained by converting resources of scheduled first resource units in terms of the second resource unit, the processor determines a transport block size and/or transmit power of the data.
6. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the processor controls not to monitor downlink control channel candidates in a region belonging to the first resource unit.
7. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the processor assumes that communication using the first resource unit is limited to a predetermined radio access scheme on uplink.
8. A radio communication method of a terminal, including:
receiving information related to a first resource unit that consists of subcarriers lower in number than a predetermined number;
identifying a frequency region of a second resource unit comprised of a same number of subcarriers as the predetermined number based on the information, and controlling communication using the first resource unit inside the frequency region; and
using a sequence shorter or longer than a reference signal sequence for the second resource unit, as a reference signal sequence for the first resource unit.
