Abstract

The present invention is designed so that retransmission control is executed appropriately in smaller units than TBs (for example, in units of CBs, in units CBGs, etc.). A user terminal according to one aspect of the present invention has a receiving section that receives a downlink (DL) signal including one or more code blocks (CBs), and a control section that controls transmission of delivery acknowledgment information for the DL signal per CB or per code block group (CBG) including or one or more CBs, and a CB or a CBG where a negative acknowledgment (NACK) is indicated by the delivery acknowledgment information is retransmitted by using a numerology that is the same as or different from that of initial transmission.

Claims (27)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives downlink control information (DCI) including information that indicates which code block group (CBG) of a transport block (TB) is present; and

a processor that controls, based on the information, reception or transmission of the CBG using a downlink shared channel or an uplink shared channel that is scheduled by the DCI,

wherein the DCI includes a field that indicates a common redundancy version between CBGs of the TB, and

one of 0, 1, 2 and 3 is applied, based on a value of the field, as a redundancy version value.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein when a plurality of TBs of different layers are transmitted, CBGs of the different layers are retransmitted with different TB s per layer.

3. The terminal according to claim 2 , wherein the processor determines whether the CBG of the TB is retransmitted or not, based on a new data indicator (NDI) in the DCI.

4. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the processor determines whether the CBG of the TB is retransmitted or not, based on a new data indicator (NDI) in the DCI.

5. A radio communication method comprising:

receiving downlink control information (DCI) including information that indicates which code block group (CBG) of a transport block (TB) is present; and

controlling, based on the information, reception or transmission of the CBG using a downlink shared channel or an uplink shared channel that is scheduled by the DCI,

wherein the DCI includes a field that indicates a common redundancy version between CBGs of the TB, and

one of 0, 1, 2 and 3 is applied, based on a value of the field, as a redundancy version value.

6. A base station comprising:

a transmitter that transmits downlink control information (DCI) including information that indicates which code block group (CBG) of a transport block (TB) is present; and

a processor that controls a scheduling of a downlink shared channel or an uplink shared channel by the DCI, to control reception or transmission of the CBG in a terminal,

wherein the DCI includes a field that indicates a common redundancy version between CBGs of the TB, and

one of 0, 1, 2 and 3 is applied, based on a value of the field, as a redundancy version value.

7. A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein:

the terminal comprises:

a receiver that receives downlink control information (DCI) including information that indicates which code block group (CBG) of a transport block (TB) is present; and

a first processor that controls, based on the information, reception or transmission of the CBG using a downlink shared channel or an uplink shared channel that is scheduled by the DCI; and

the base station comprises:

a transmitter that transmits the DCI; and

a second processor that controls a scheduling of the downlink shared channel or the uplink shared channel by the DCI, to control reception or transmission of the CBG in the terminal,

wherein the DCI includes a field that indicates a common redundancy version between CBGs of the TB, and

one of 0, 1, 2 and 3 is applied, based on a value of the field, as a redundancy version value.
