Abstract

Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a next-generation wireless communication system for supporting high data transfer rates beyond the 4th generation (4G) wireless communication system. According to the various embodiments, a method of transmitting and receiving signals in a wireless communication system and apparatus for supporting the same may be provided. In addition, other embodiments may also be provided.

Claims (41)

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

transmitting information on a mobility state of the UE;

receiving configuration information on one or more specific beam resources for paging; and

receiving a paging message on the specific beam resources based on measurement quality of the specific beam resources greater than or equal to a specific threshold,

wherein the specific beam resources are determined based on one or more synchronization signal/sequence block (SSB) indices or one or more channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs), and

wherein the configuration information includes at least one of a random access channel (RACH) configuration available for the UE in radio resource control (RRC) IDLE or RRC INACTIVE mode, or the specific threshold for paging.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information on the mobility state of the UE includes information on one or more SSB indices with highest quality in a serving cell or one or more SSB indices with quality greater than or equal to the specific threshold and reference signal received power (RSRP) or reference signal received quality (RSRQ) measurement values related to the one or more SSB indices.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the configuration information further includes:

1) Information on one or more cells; and

2) information on one or more specific SSB indices selected for the one or more cells among the one or more SSB indices included in the information on the mobility state of the UE.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising receiving downlink control information (DCI) based on the one or more specific SSB indices.

5. The method of claim 4 , comprising receiving a transport block (TB) including the paging message over a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the DCI.

6. The method of claim 2 , further comprising receiving a tracking reference signal (TRS), a CSI-RS, or a wake-up signal (WUS) related to at least one SSB index among the one or more SSB indices included in the information on the mobility state of the UE.

7. The method of claim 1 , comprising:

reselecting new beam resources based on the measurement quality of the specific beam resources less than the specific threshold;

transmitting information on the new beam resources to a base station;

receiving information on a second beam resource for paging based on the new beam resources; and

receiving the paging message on the second beam resource,

wherein the second beam resource is determined from among the new beam resources selected by the UE.

8. A nonvolatile computer-readable medium having recorded thereon a program code for executing the method defined in claim 1 .

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

a transceiver; and

one or more processors connected to the transceiver,

wherein the transceiver is configured to:

transmit information on a mobility state of the UE;

receive configuration information on one or more specific beam resource for paging; and

receive a paging message on the specific beam resources based on measurement quality of the specific beam resources greater than or equal to a specific threshold,

wherein the specific beam resources are determined based on one or more synchronization signal/sequence block (SSB) indices or one or more channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs), and

wherein the configuration information includes at least one of a random access channel (RACH) configuration available for the UE in radio resource control (RRC) IDLE or RRC INACTIVE mode, or the specific threshold for paging.

10. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the information on the mobility state of the UE includes information on one or more SSB indices with highest quality in a serving cell or one or more SSB indices with quality greater than or equal to the specific threshold and reference signal received power (RSRP) or reference signal received quality (RSRQ) measurement values related to the one or more SSB indices.

11. The UE of claim 10 , wherein the configuration information further includes:

1) Information on one or more cells; and

2) information on one or more specific SSB indices selected for the one or more cells among the one or more SSB indices included in the information on the mobility state of the UE.

12. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the transceiver is configured to receive downlink control information (DCI) based on the one or more specific SSB indices.

13. The UE of claim 12 , wherein the transceiver is configured to receive a transport block (TB) including the paging message over a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the DCI.

14. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to reselect new beam resources based on the measurement quality of the specific beam resources less than the specific threshold, and

wherein the transceiver is configured to:

transmit information on the new beam resources to a base station;

receive information on a second beam resource for paging based on the new beam resources; and

receive the paging message on the second beam resource, and

wherein the second beam resource is determined from among the new beam resources selected by the UE.
