Abstract

The present disclosure is related to a method, by a user equipment (UE), for transmitting uplink data through a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR) in a wireless communication system and apparatus therefor. According to the present disclosure, the method comprises, the UE receives, from a base station, PUR configuration information for uplink data transmission based on the PUR in a radio resource control (RRC) connected state; transitions from the RRC connected state to an RRC idle state; performing a timing advance (TA) update procedure based on whether a TA related to uplink transmission timing is valid; and transmits, to the base station, the uplink data on a first resource of the PUR, wherein, based on that a specific resource included in the PUR is included in a TA update performing interval, a transmission for the uplink data on the specific resource is dropped, and a value of a counter for release of the PUR is held regardless of dropping of the uplink data on the specific resource.

Claims (33)

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, configuration information related to a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR);

transmitting, to the base station, uplink data using the PUR;

receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a retransmission of the uplink data using the PUR; and

retransmitting, to the base station, the uplink data using the PUR,

wherein, based on the UE being a coverage enhancement (CE) UE configured with a CE mode B, a transmission power for the retransmission is determined based on a configured maximum uplink transmission power.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the UE being a CE UE configured with a CE mode A:

the DCI comprises a field for a Transmission Power Control (TPC) command, and

the transmission power for the retransmission is determined based on the TPC command.

3. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein an accumulation of the TPC command related to uplink transmission power is reset based on the retransmission of the uplink data using the PUR.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration information related to the PUR further includes (i) information on time domain resources including periodicity, (ii) information on frequency domain resources, (iii) information on modulation and coding scheme and (iv) information on a search space for monitoring a feedback on the transmission of the uplink data using the PUR.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein configuration information related to the PUR is received in a radio resource control (RRC) connected state, and

further comprising:

transitioning from the RRC connected state to an RRC idle state,

wherein the transmission of the uplink data using the PUR is performed in the RRC idle state.

6. A user equipment (UE) configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transmitter for transmitting a radio signal;

a receiver for receiving a radio signal; and

a processor operatively coupled to the transmitter and the receiver,

wherein the processor is configured to:

receive, from a base station, configuration information related to a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR);

transmit, to the base station, uplink data using the PUR;

receive, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a retransmission of the uplink data using the PUR; and

retransmit, to the base station, the uplink data using the PUR,

wherein, based on the UE being a coverage enhancement (CE) UE configured with a CE mode B, a transmission power for the retransmission is determined based on a configured maximum uplink transmission power.

7. An apparatus for a user equipment (UE), the apparatus comprising one or more memories and one or more processors operatively coupled to the one or more memories, the apparatus comprising:

wherein the one or more processors controls the apparatus to:

receive, from a base station, configuration information related to a preconfigured uplink resource (PUR);

transmit, to the base station, uplink data using the PUR;

receive, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a retransmission of the uplink data using the PUR; and

retransmit, to the base station, the uplink data using the PUR,

wherein, based on the UE being a coverage enhancement (CE) UE configured with a CE mode B, a transmission power for the retransmission is determined based on a configured maximum uplink transmission power.
