Methods and apparatus for guardband configuration
A base station and a terminal that perform communication using an unlicensed band may divide a bandwidth part into a plurality of subbands and may perform a channel access procedure for the respective subbands. The terminal receives, from the base station, configuration information via radio resource control (RRC) signaling. The terminal identifies whether information on a guardband is included in the configuration information. The base station transmits control information including bitmap information indicating an available resource block (RB) set among RB sets, wherein the RB sets are determined based on the information on the guardband based on the information on the guardband is included in the configuration information. The base station also transmits data based on the bitmap information.
1. A method performed by a terminal in a communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, configuration information via radio resource control (RRC) signaling;
identifying whether information on a guardband is included in the configuration information;
receiving, from the base station, control information including bitmap information indicating an available resource block (RB) set among RB sets, wherein the RB sets are determined based on the information on the guardband that is included in the configuration information; and
receiving, from the base station, data based on the bitmap information.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information on the guardband includes information on a size of the guardband and a start RB index of the guardband.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the information on the guardband being not included in the configuration information, the guardband is determined based on a predetermined guardband.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the RB sets is separated based on the guardband in a bandwidth part.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information on the guardband is configured for at least one subcarrier spacing.
6. A method performed by a base station in a communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting, to a terminal, configuration information via radio resource control (RRC) signaling;
transmitting, to the terminal, control information including bitmap information indicating an available resource block (RB) set among RB sets, wherein the RB sets are determined based on information on a guardband that is included in the configuration information; and
transmitting, to the terminal, data based on the bitmap information.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the information on the guardband includes information on a size of the guardband and a start RB index of the guardband.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein, based on the information on the guardband being not included in the configuration information, the guardband is determined based on a predetermined guardband.
9. The method of claim 6 , wherein each of the RB sets is separated based on the guardband in a bandwidth part.
10. The method of claim 6 , wherein the information on the guardband is configured for at least one subcarrier spacing.
11. A terminal in a communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
receive, from a base station, configuration information via radio resource control (RRC) signaling,
identify whether information on a guardband is included in the configuration information,
receive, from the base station, control information including bitmap information indicating an available resource block (RB) set among RB sets, wherein the RB sets are determined based on the information on the guardband that is included in the configuration information, and
receive, from the base station, data based on the bitmap information.
12. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the information on the guardband includes information on a size of the guardband and a start RB index of the guardband.
13. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein, based on the information on the guardband being not included in the configuration information, the guardband is determined based on a predetermined guardband.
14. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein each of the RB sets is separated based on the guardband in a bandwidth part.
15. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the information on the guardband is configured for at least one subcarrier spacing.
16. A base station in a communication system, the base station comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
transmit, to a terminal, configuration information via radio resource control (RRC) signaling,
transmit, to the terminal, control information including bitmap information indicating an available resource block (RB) set among RB sets, wherein the RB sets are determined based on information on a guardband that is included in the configuration information, and
transmit, to the terminal, data based on the bitmap information.
17. The base station of claim 16 , wherein the information on the guardband includes information on a size of the guardband and a start RB index of the guardband.
18. The base station of claim 16 , wherein, based on the information on the guardband being not included in the configuration information, the guardband is determined based on a predetermined guardband.
19. The base station of claim 18 , wherein each of the RB sets is separated based on the guardband in a bandwidth part.
20. The base station of claim 16 , wherein the information on the guardband is configured for at least one subcarrier spacing.
