Method by which terminal monitors control channel in wireless communication system, and terminal using method
A method by which a terminal monitors a control channel in a wireless communication system, and a device using the method are provided. The method determines whether physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions overlap in a plurality of control resource sets (CORESETs), selects at least one CORESET from among the plurality of CORESETs when the PDCCH monitoring occasions overlap, and monitors a PDCCH only in the selected at least one CORESET from among the plurality of CORESETs.
1. A method of monitoring a control channel of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
based on physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions being overlapped in a plurality of control resource sets (CORESETs) having different spatial quasi co-location (QCL) properties, selecting one CORESET from the plurality of CORESETs; and
monitoring PDCCH candidates only in the one CORESET selected from the plurality of CORESETs,
wherein the one CORESET is selected based on a type of a related search space,
wherein the type of the search space is a common search space (CSS) or a UE-specific search space (USS),
wherein selecting the one CORESET comprises: selecting a CORESET that comprises a CSS having a lowest index, based on a plurality of CORESETs comprising a CSS.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
selecting a first CORESET corresponding to a CSS set with a lowest index in a cell with a lowest index containing a CSS among the plurality of CORESETs.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
monitoring a PDCCH in the first CORESET and any other CORESET using a same reception beam as that of the first CORESET.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the any other CORESET using the same reception beam as that of the first CORESET is a CORESET having a same quasi co location (QCL) characteristics as that of the first CORESET.
5. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit and receive wireless signals; and
a processor configured to operate in combination with the transceiver,
wherein the processor is further configured to:
based on physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions being overlapped in a plurality of control resource sets (CORESETs) having different spatial quasi co-location (QCL) properties, select one CORESET from the plurality of CORESETs; and
monitor PDCCH candidates only in the one CORESET selected from the plurality of CORESETs,
wherein the one CORESET is selected based on a type of a related search space, and
wherein the type of the search space is a common search space (CSS) or a UE-specific search space (USS),
wherein selecting the one CORESET comprises: selecting a CORESET that comprises a CSS having a lowest index, based on a plurality of CORESETs comprising a CSS.
6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to: select a first CORESET corresponding to a CSS set with a lowest index in a cell with a lowest index containing a CSS among the plurality of CORESETs.
7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to: monitor a PDCCH in the first CORESET and any other CORESET using a same reception beam as that of the first CORESET.
8. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the any other CORESET using the same reception beam as that of the first CORESET is a CORESET having a same quasi co location (QCL) characteristics as that of the first CORESET.
9. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the UE is configured to communication with at least one of a mobile UE, a network, and an autonomous vehicle other than the UE.
10. A processor for controlling a wireless communication device in a wireless communication system, wherein the processor is configured to control the wireless communication device to:
based on physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions being overlapped in a plurality of control resource sets (CORESETs) having different spatial quasi co-location (QCL) properties, select one CORESET from the plurality of CORESETs; and
monitor PDCCH candidates only in the one CORESET selected from the plurality of CORESETs,
wherein the one CORESET is selected based on a type of a related search space, and
wherein the type of the search space is a common search space (CSS) or a UE-specific search space (USS),
wherein selecting the one CORESET comprises: selecting a CORESET that comprises a CSS having a lowest index, based on a plurality of CORESETs comprising a CSS.
