Method for configuring bandwidth for supporting broadband carrier in communication system
Disclosed is a method for configuring a bandwidth for supporting a broadband carrier in a communication system. An operation method of a base station comprises the steps of: configuring a first bandwidth part and a second bandwidth part for a terminal; configuring a reserved resource for the first bandwidth part in a resource area in which the first bandwidth part and the second bandwidth part overlap; and performing an operation of transmitting or receiving a second data channel, which is scheduled to the second bandwidth part, together with the terminal by using the reserved resource. Therefore, the performance of the communication system can be improved.
1. An operation method of a base station, the operation method comprising:
transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) including scheduling information of a data channel in a search space;
determining a reference point for mapping a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) of the data channel depending on a type of the search space in which the DCI is transmitted, the reference point being determined as a lowest-numbered subcarrier in a lowest-numbered common resource block (CRB) when the type of the search space is a UE-specific search space (USS), or the reference point being determined as a lowest-numbered subcarrier in an initial downlink bandwidth part (BWP) when the type of the search space is a specific common search space (CSS);
mapping the DMRS of the data channel to resource elements (REs) which are determined based on the reference point; and
transmitting, to the user equipment (UE), the data channel including the DMRS mapped to the REs based on the scheduling information included in the DCI.
2. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI which is transmitted in the specific CSS is used for scheduling the data channel, the data channel including remaining minimum system information (RMSI).
3. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI which is transmitted in the specific CSS is scrambled by a system information-radio network temporary identifier (SI-RNTI).
4. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the USS and the specific CSS are configured in a same BWP.
5. The operation method of claim 4 , wherein the same BWP is the initial downlink BWP.
6. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein a frequency location of the lowest-numbered subcarrier in the lowest-numbered CRB is configured to the UE.
7. The operation method of claim 6 , wherein the frequency location of the lowest-numbered subcarrier in the lowest-numbered CRB is represented by a frequency offset from a location of a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block.
8. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the lowest-numbered subcarrier in the lowest-numbered CRB is a subcarrier with an index 0 and the lowest-numbered CRB is a CRB with an index 0.
9. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is transmitted through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and the data channel is a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).
10. An operation method of a user equipment (UE), the operation method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) including scheduling information of a data channel in a search space;
determining a reference point for mapping a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) of the data channel scheduled by the DCI depending on a type of the search space, the reference point being determined as a lowest-numbered subcarrier in a lowest-numbered common resource block (CRB) when the type of the search space is a UE-specific search space (USS), or the reference point being determined as a lowest-numbered subcarrier in an initial downlink bandwidth part (BWP) when the type of the search space is a specific common search space (CSS);
determining resource elements (REs) in which the DMRS is mapped based on the reference point; and
receiving, from the base station, the data channel including the DMRS mapped to the REs based on the scheduling information included in the DCI.
11. The operation method of claim 10 , wherein the DCI which is received in the specific CSS is used for scheduling the data channel including remaining minimum system information (RMSI).
12. The operation method of claim 10 , wherein a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI which is received in the specific CSS is scrambled by a system information-radio network temporary identifier (SI-RNTI).
13. The operation method of claim 10 , wherein the USS and the specific CSS are configured in a same BWP.
14. The operation method of claim 13 , wherein the same BWP is the initial downlink BWP.
15. The operation method of claim 10 , wherein a frequency location of the lowest-numbered subcarrier in the lowest-numbered CRB is configured to the UE.
16. The operation method of claim 15 , wherein the frequency location of the lowest-numbered subcarrier in the lowest-numbered CRB is represented by a frequency offset from a location of a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block.
17. The operation method of claim 10 , wherein the lowest-numbered subcarrier is a subcarrier in the lowest-numbered CRB with an index 0 and the lowest-numbered CRB is a CRB with an index 0.
18. The operation method of claim 10 , wherein the DCI is received through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and the data channel is a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).
