Abstract

A user terminal according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes: a receiving section that receives information related to a timing being used as a reference of a start symbol of an uplink shared channel or a downlink shared channel in a given transmission occasion; and a control section that determines a time domain resource over one or more slots allocated to the uplink shared channel or the downlink shared channel, based on the start symbol determined with the timing being used as the reference and a number of consecutive symbols from the start symbol.

Claims (18)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives information regarding timing being used as a reference for a start symbol of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a transmission occasion, wherein repeated transmission is applied to the PUSCH; and

a processor that determines, based on the start symbol determined by using, as a reference, the timing indicated by the information and a number of consecutive symbols from the start symbol, a time domain resource over one or more slots allocated to the PUSCH, and applies, based on a slot boundary within the time domain resource, frequency hopping to the PUSCH.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the timing is indicated by a higher layer parameter.

3. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein a pattern of the frequency hopping differs among at least a part of the PUSCH, to which the repeated transmission is applied, in the transmission occasion.

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

receiving information regarding timing being used as a reference for a start symbol of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a transmission occasion, wherein repeated transmission is applied to the PUSCH; and

determining, based on the start symbol determined by using, as a reference, the timing indicated by the information and a number of consecutive symbols from the start symbol, a time domain resource over one or more slots allocated to the PUSCH, and applying, based on a slot boundary within the time domain resource, frequency hopping to the PUSCH.

5. A base station comprising:

a transmitter that transmits information regarding timing being used as a reference for a start symbol of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a transmission occasion, wherein repeated transmission is applied to the PUSCH; and

a processor that indicates to a terminal to determine, based on the start symbol determined by using, as a reference, the timing indicated by the information and a number of consecutive symbols from the start symbol, a time domain resource over one or more slots allocated to the PUSCH, and indicates to the terminal to apply, based on a slot boundary within the time domain resource, frequency hopping to the PUSCH.

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

the terminal comprises:

a receiver that receives information regarding timing being used as a reference for a start symbol of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a transmission occasion, wherein repeated transmission is applied to the PUSCH; and

a processor that determines, based on the start symbol determined by using, as a reference, the timing indicated by the information and a number of consecutive symbols from the start symbol, a time domain resource over one or more slots allocated to the PUSCH, and applies, based on a slot boundary within the time domain resource, frequency hopping to the PUSCH, and

the base station comprises:

a transmitter that transmits the information; and

a processor that indicates to the terminal to determine, based on the start symbol determined by using, as a reference, the timing indicated by the information and a number of consecutive symbols from the start symbol, the time domain resource, and indicates to the terminal to apply, based on the slot boundary within the time domain resource, the frequency hopping to the PUSCH.
