Abstract

In order to appropriately control the reception of a CSI-RS, one aspect of user terminal of the present disclosure includes: a receiving section that receives a channel state information reference signal based on downlink control information; a transmitting section that transmits given information related to the minimum number of symbols between the downlink control information and the channel state information reference signal; and a control section that performs a control an operation of receiving the channel state information reference signal according to a value of the given information.

Claims (20)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives downlink control information (DCI) triggering a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS);

a transmitter that transmits at least one of first information indicating any one of a plurality of first candidate values and second information indicating any one of a plurality of second candidate values that are different from the plurality of first candidate values and larger than any one of the plurality of first candidate values, as capability information regarding a minimum number of symbols between the DCI and the CSI-RS; and

a processor that controls a receiving operation of the CSI-RS,

wherein the processor, if the transmitter transmits the second information as capability information, a number of symbols between the DCI and the CSI-RS is smaller than a value of the second information, and there is no DL signal transmitted in a same symbol as the CSI-RS, controls the receiving operation of the CSI-RS by using a default transmission configuration indication (TCI) state or a quasi-co-location (QCL) assumption corresponding to a control resource set (CORESET) associated with a monitored search space with a lowest CORESET-ID in a latest slot.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the processor, if the transmitter transmits the second information as capability information, the number of symbols between the DCI and the CSI-RS is smaller than the value of the second information, and there is a DL signal transmitted in a same symbol as the CSI-RS, controls the receiving operation of the CSI-RS by using a QCL assumption of the DL signal.

3. A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:

receiving downlink control information (DCI) triggering a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS);

transmitting at least one of first information indicating any one of a plurality of first candidate values and second information indicating any one of a plurality of second candidate values that are different from the plurality of first candidate values and larger than any one of the plurality of first candidate values, as capability information regarding a minimum number of symbols between the DCI and the CSI-RS;

controlling a receiving operation of the CSI-RS in accordance with a transmission of the first information or the second information; and

controlling, if the terminal transmits the second information as capability information, a number of symbols between the DCI and the CSI-RS is smaller than a value of the second information, and there is no DL signal transmitted in a same symbol as the CSI-RS, the receiving operation of the CSI-RS by using a default transmission configuration indication (TCI) state or quasi-co-location (QCL) assumption corresponding to a control resource set (CORESET) associated with a monitored search space with a lowest CORESET-ID in a latest slot.

4. A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein

the terminal comprises:

a receiver that receives downlink control information (DCI) triggering a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS);

a transmitter that transmits at least one of first information indicating any one of a plurality of first candidate values and second information indicating any one of a plurality of second candidate values that are different from the plurality of first candidate values and larger than any one of the plurality of first candidate values, as capability information regarding a minimum number of symbols between the DCI and the CSI-RS; and

a processor that controls a receiving operation of the CSI-RS in accordance with a transmission of the first information or the second information,

wherein the processor, if the transmitter transmits the second information as capability information, a number of symbols between the DCI and the CSI-RS is smaller than a value of the second information, and there is no DL signal transmitted in a same symbol as the CSI-RS, controls the receiving operation of the CSI-RS by using a default transmission configuration indication (TCI) state or a quasi-co-location (QCL) assumption corresponding to a control resource set (CORESET) associated with a monitored search space with a lowest CORESET-ID in a latest slot, and

the base station comprises:

a transmitter that transmits the DCI, and

a receiver that receives the first information and the second information.
