Abstract

Disclosed are a method for a base station and a UE transmitting/receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, and a device supporting same. According to one embodiment, a method for a UE transmitting/receiving a signal in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: receiving, from a base station, configuration information about a carrier for one or more channel; and, on the basis of the received configuration information, transmitting and then receiving one or more channel. Therein, the one or more channel comprises at least one among a downlink control channel, a downlink shared channel and an uplink shared channel, and the carrier may be configured differently based on the channel being transmitted therethrough.

Claims (41)

1. A method of transmitting and receiving a signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a narrowband physical downlink control channel (NPDCCH) by monitoring a first carrier;

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical downlink shared channel (NPDSCH), receiving the NPDSCH based on a second carrier; and

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical uplink shared channel (NPUSCH), transmitting the NPUSCH based on a third carrier,

wherein a plurality of carriers are configured for monitoring the NPDCCH, and the first carrier is selected from the plurality of carriers based on a predetermined priority, and

wherein the second carrier and the third carrier are configured differently from the first carrier.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of carriers are configured differently based on at least one of a search space for monitoring the NPDCCH, a coverage enhancement (CE) level, or a radio resource control (RRC) state.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the predetermined priority is determined based on an index of each of the plurality of carriers, a maximum number of repetitive transmissions of the NPDCCH, or an operation performed by the UE before monitoring the NPDCCH.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the NPDCCH scheduling the NPDSCH, the second carrier is configured based on at least one of content transmitted through the NPDSCH, a coverage enhancement (CE) level, a maximum number of repetitive transmissions of the NPDSCH, or the first carrier for monitoring the NPDCCH.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the content transmitted through the NPDSCH comprises at least one of system information, a broadcast channel, user data, or a media access control (MAC) control message.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the NPDCCH scheduling the NPUSCH, the third carrier is configured based on at least one of content transmitted through the NPUSCH or a subcarrier spacing.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the content transmitted through the NPUSCH comprises at least one of acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information, a scheduling request message, user data, a media access control (MAC) control message, a radio resource control (RRC) message, or a higher layer message.

8. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein carriers having the same system information among the first carrier, the second carrier, and the third carrier are configured as one group, and

wherein the system information of the carriers configured as one group is simultaneously allocated.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the system information comprises at least one of information about an operation mode, information about an uplink/downlink configuration, or information about a time division duplex (TDD) special subframe configuration.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein one or more carriers among the first carrier, the second carrier, and the third carrier are used for measuring at least one of size of a downlink signal or quality of the downlink signal.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the third carrier is used for measuring at least one of the size of the downlink signal or the quality of the downlink signal.

12. A method of transmitting and receiving a signal by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting a narrowband physical downlink control channel (NPDCCH) by monitoring a first carrier; and

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical downlink shared channel (NPDSCH), transmitting the NPDSCH based on a second carrier; and

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical uplink shared channel (NPUSCH), receiving the NPUSCH based on a third carrier,

wherein a plurality of carriers are configured for monitoring the NPDCCH and the first carrier is selected from the plurality of carriers based on a predetermined priority, and

wherein the second carrier and the third carrier are configured differently from the first carrier.

13. A user equipment (UE) operating in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:

receive a narrowband physical downlink control channel (NPDCCH) by monitoring a first carrier; and

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical downlink shared channel (NPDSCH), receive the NPDSCH based on a second carrier; and

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical uplink shared channel (NPUSCH), transmitting the NPUSCH based on a third carrier,

wherein a plurality of carriers are configured for monitoring the NPDCCH and the first carrier is selected from the plurality of carriers based on a predetermined priority, and

wherein the second carrier and the third carrier are configured differently from the first carrier.

14. A base station (BS) operating in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:

transmit a narrowband physical downlink control channel (NPDCCH) by monitoring a first carrier; and

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical downlink shared channel (NPDSCH), transmit the NPDSCH based on a second carrier; and

based on the NPDCCH scheduling a narrowband physical uplink shared channel (NPUSCH), receive the NPUSCH based on a third carrier,

wherein a plurality of carriers are configured for monitoring the NPDCCH and the first carrier is selected from the plurality of carriers based on a predetermined priority, and

wherein the second carrier and the third carrier are configured differently from the first carrier.
