Method and apparatus for performing wireless communication in unlicensed band
Provided are a method and a device performing wireless communication in an unlicensed band, which receives information on allocating a radio resource in a system bandwidth made up of a plurality of subbands, receives information on a LBT (Listen Before Talk) failure region among the radio resource, and receives a downlink signal in other regions in the radio resource, except the LBT failure region.
1. An operation method of a user equipment (UE) using an unlicensed band, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, configuration information about a plurality of subbands in the unlicensed band; and
receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) including a bitmap,
wherein each bit in the bitmap indicates an availability or unavailability for a reception in a corresponding subband,
wherein based on the bitmap indicating at least one subband as available for the reception, the UE is able to receive a downlink signal from the base station,
wherein before receiving the downlink signal, a listen before talk (LBT) is performed by the base station, and
wherein based on that all subbands in the bitmap are determined as unavailable for the reception, the UE does not receive a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), and
wherein the DCI is scrambled with a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) commonly applied to a plurality of UEs which access a same control resource set (CORESET) and received through a UE-group common physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the DCI further includes information indicating whether LBT succeeds for each of subbands.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein each subband includes a plurality of resource blocks (RBs).
4. An operation method of a base station using an unlicensed band, the method comprising:
transmitting, a user equipment (UE), a configuration information about a plurality of subbands in the unlicensed band; and
performing a LBT (Listen Before Talk) before transmitting a downlink signal; and
transmitting, to the UE, downlink control information (DCI) including a bitmap,
wherein each bit in the bitmap indicates an availability or unavailability in a corresponding subband,
wherein based on the bitmap indicating at least one subband as available, the UE is able to receive the downlink signal from the base station,
wherein based on that all subbands in the bitmap are determined as unavailable for the reception, the UE does not receive a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), and
wherein the DCI is scrambled with a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) commonly applied to a plurality of UEs which access a same control resource set (CORESET) and transmitted through UE-group common physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the DCI further includes information indicating whether LBT succeeds for each of subbands.
6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein each subband includes a plurality of resource blocks (RBs).
7. A user equipment (UE) using an unlicensed band, the UE comprising:
a receiver configured to:
receive, from a base station, configuration information about a plurality of subbands in the unlicensed band, and
receive, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) including a bitmap; and
a controller configured to control an operation of the receiver,
wherein each bit in the bitmap indicates an availability or unavailability for a reception in a corresponding subband,
wherein based on the bitmap indicating at least one subband as available for the reception, the UE is able to receive a downlink signal from the base station,
wherein before receiving the downlink signal, a listen before talk (LBT) is performed by the base station, and
wherein based on that all subbands in the bitmap are determined as unavailable for the reception, the UE does not receive a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS), and
wherein the DCI is scrambled with a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) commonly applied to a plurality of UEs which access a same control resource set (CORESET) and received through UE-group common physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).
8. The user equipment (UE) according to claim 7 , wherein the DCI further includes information indicating whether LBT succeeds for each of subbands.
9. The user equipment (UE) according to claim 7 , wherein each subband includes a plurality of resource blocks (RBs).
