Abstract

Disclosed are a method and a device for dynamically indicating and applying spatial parameters in a wireless communication system. A method for applying spatial parameters by means of a terminal in a wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, comprises the steps of: receiving, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) including first information on one or more spatial parameters, second information on time domain resource allocation, and third information on whether to schedule a data channel; transmitting, on the basis of the second information, hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information to the base station on the basis of the third information indicating that the data channel is not scheduled; and after transmitting the HARQ-ACK information, performing uplink transmission to the base station or downlink reception from the base station on the basis of the one or more spatial parameters based on the first information.

Claims (39)

1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) including first information related to at least one transmission configuration indication (TCI) state, second information related to time domain resource assignment, and third information related to a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource indication, the DCI being with or without scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);

transmitting, to the base station, hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information, based on the DCI without scheduling the PDSCH; and

applying the at least one TCI state based on the first information, after transmitting the HARQ-ACK information,

wherein the HARQ-ACK information corresponds to a detection of the DCI providing an update of the at least one TCI state without scheduling the PDSCH, and

wherein the DCI without scheduling the PDSCH is based on a specific value of at least one of frequency domain resource assignment (FDRA) field, redundancy version (RV) field, modulation and coding scheme (MCS) field, or new data indicator (NDI) field of the DCI.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

a location of the HARQ-ACK information in an HARQ-ACK codebook is based on the second information.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein:

the HARQ-ACK codebook is configured as Type-1 or semi-static.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

for the DCI without scheduling the PDSCH, each the of at least one of the FDRA field, the RV field, the MCS field, or the NDI field is individually set to a specific value.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the first information indicates at least one of at least one uplink TCI state or at least one downlink TCI state.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the at least one TCI state based on the first information is applied to the terminal after transmitting the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to the DCI providing the update of the at least one TCI state without scheduling the PDSCH.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

an uplink transmission to the base station is performed based on the at least one TCI state based on the first information, the uplink transmission includes a transmission of at least one of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), or a sounding reference signal (SRS),

a downlink reception from the base station is performed based on the at least one TCI state based on the first information, the downlink reception includes a reception of at least one of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), or a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS).

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the DCI is based on a DCI format 1_1 or 1_2.

9. A terminal comprising:

at least one transceiver; and

at least one processor connected to the at least one transceiver,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

receive, from a base station through the transceiver, downlink control information (DCI) including first information related to at least one transmission configuration indication (TCI) state, second information related to time domain resource assignment, and third information related to a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource indication, the DCI being with or without scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);

transmit, to the base station through the transceiver, hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information, based on the DCI without scheduling the PDSCH; and

apply the at least one TCI state based on the first information, after transmitting the HARQ-ACK information,

wherein the HARQ-ACK information corresponds to a detection of the DCI providing an update of the at least one TCI state without scheduling the PDSCH, and

wherein the DCI without scheduling the PDSCH is based on a specific value of at least one of frequency domain resource assignment (FDRA) field, redundancy version (RV) field, modulation and coding scheme (MCS) field, or new data indicator (NDI) field of the DCI.

10. A base station comprising:

at least one transceiver; and

at least one processor connected to the at least one transceiver,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

transmit, to a terminal through the transceiver, downlink control information (DCI) including first information related to at least one transmission configuration indication (TCI) state, second information related to time domain resource assignment, and third information related to a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource indication, the DCI being with or without scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

receive, from the terminal through the transceiver, hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information, based on the DCI without scheduling the PDSCH;

wherein the at least one TCI state is applied to the terminal based on the first information, after transmitting the HARQ-ACK information, and

wherein the HARQ-ACK information corresponds to a detection of the DCI providing an update of the at least one TCI state without scheduling the PDSCH, and

wherein the DCI without scheduling the PDSCH is based on a specific value of at least one of frequency domain resource assignment (FDRA) field, redundancy version (RV) field, modulation and coding scheme (MCS) field, or new data indicator (NDI) field of the DCI.
