Abstract

Provided are a method of transmitting and receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, and an apparatus supporting the same.

Claims (37)

1. A method performed by an apparatus configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving information regarding a plurality of groups related to a plurality of search space sets for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring, wherein the plurality of groups comprise a first group with a first group index and a second group with a second group index different from each other; and

performing the PDCCH monitoring according to a search space set with the first group index among the plurality of search space sets,

wherein based on the second group index being indicated by downlink control information (DCI) being received: after a first predetermined time from the DCI being received, the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the first group index is switched to PDCCH monitoring according to a search space set with the second group index among the plurality of search space sets.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first predetermined time is configured as at least one symbol.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first predetermined time is determined to be equal to or longer than a processing time, and

wherein the processing time is related to a time required for the apparatus to switch the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the first group index to the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the second group index.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the second group index is started in a 1 st slot after the first predetermined time.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information regarding the plurality of groups is received through a higher layer signaling.

6. An apparatus configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor coupled with the memory,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

receive information regarding a plurality of groups related to a plurality of search space sets for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring, wherein the plurality of groups comprise a first group with a first group index and a second group with a second group index different from each other; and

perform the PDCCH monitoring according to a search space set with the first group index among the plurality of search space sets,

wherein based on the second group index being indicated by downlink control information (DCI) being received: after a first predetermined time from the DCI being received, the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the first group index is switched to PDCCH monitoring according to a search space set with the second group index among the plurality of search space sets.

7. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the apparatus is configured to communicate with at least one of: a mobile terminal, a network, or an autonomous driving vehicle other than a vehicle comprising the apparatus.

8. A method performed by an apparatus configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting information regarding a plurality of groups related to a plurality of search space sets for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring, wherein the plurality of groups comprise a first group with a first group index and a second group with a second group index different from each other; and

transmitting a PDCCH according to a search space set with the first group index among the plurality of search space sets,

wherein based on the second group index being indicated by downlink control information (DCI) being transmitted:

after a first predetermined time from the DCI being transmitted, the PDCCH transmission according to the search space set with the first group index is switched to PDCCH transmission according to a search space set with the second group index among the plurality of search space sets.

9. An apparatus configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor coupled with the memory,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

transmit information regarding a plurality of groups related to a plurality of search space sets for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring, wherein the plurality of groups comprise a first group with a first group index and a second group with a second group index different from each other; and

transmit a PDCCH according to a search space set with the first group index among the plurality of search space sets,

wherein based on the second group index being indicated by downlink control information (DCI) being transmitted: after a first predetermined time from the DCI being transmitted, the PDCCH transmission according to the search space set with the first group index is switched to PDCCH transmission according to a search space set with the second group index among the plurality of search space sets.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein based on switching the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the first group index to the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the second group index:

(i) after the first predetermined time, PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the second group index is started, and

(ii) the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the first group index is ended.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second group index being indicated by the DCI is included in a first condition among a plurality of predetermined conditions,

wherein based on at least one of the plurality of predetermined conditions being satisfied, the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the first group index is switched to PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the second group index,

wherein the plurality of predetermined conditions further comprise:

(i) a second condition comprising a channel occupancy time (COT) is indicated by downlink control information (DCI) carried by a group-common PDCCH (GC-PDCCH); and

(ii) a third condition comprising the PDCCH monitoring according to the search space set with the first group index being configured to be performed during a second predetermined time and the second predetermined time being expired.
