Method by which terminal reports state information in wireless communication system, and terminal and base station for supporting same
Disclosed are: a method by which a terminal reports state information, relating to one or more cells from among a plurality of cells set in the terminal, in a wireless communication system including the terminal and a base station having the plurality of cells; and a terminal and a base station for supporting same. According to one embodiment applicable to the present disclosure, a terminal can efficiently report, to a base station, state information related to one or more cells in which beam failure has occurred and, in response thereto, the base station can recognize the beam failure in the one or more cells.
1. A method for reporting beam failure information by a user equipment (UE) configured with a plurality of secondary cells in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
detecting a beam failure in one or more secondary cells among the plurality of secondary cells; and
based on the detection of the beam failure, reporting, to a base station (BS), the beam failure information including (i) a single bitmap that indicates, for each of the plurality of secondary cells, whether the beam failure is detected and (ii) candidate beam information related to a candidate beam for each of the one or more secondary cells,
wherein a size of the candidate beam information is determined based on the number of bits having a specific bit value in the single bitmap.
2. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein each bit of the single bitmap indicates whether the beam failure is detected in each of the plurality of secondary cells.
3. The method of claim 2 ,
wherein each bit set to 0 indicates that the beam failure is not detected and each bit set to 1 indicates that the beam failure is detected.
4. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the single bitmap indicates, for each of the plurality of secondary cells, whether the beam failure is detected by mapping bits of the single bitmap to corresponding indexes of the plurality of secondary cells.
5. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the candidate beam information includes an index of the candidate beam for each of the one or more secondary cells.
6. The method of claim 5 ,
wherein the candidate beam information further includes a reference signal received power (RSRP) of the candidate beam for each of the one or more secondary cells.
7. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein a bit size of the bitmap is determined based on a number of the plurality of secondary cells.
8. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the beam failure information is transmitted through one uplink channel.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting, to the BS, a first signal for requesting an uplink resource for reporting the beam failure information based on the detection of the beam failure; and
receiving, from the BS, a second signal for allocating the uplink resource in response to the first signal.
10. A user equipment (UE), configured with a plurality of secondary cells, configured to report beam failure information in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
at least one transmitter;
at least one receiver;
at least one processor; and
at least one memory operatively coupled to the at least one processor and configured to store instructions causing, when executed, the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
detecting a beam failure in one or more secondary cells among the plurality of secondary cells; and
based on the detection of the beam failure, reporting, to a base station (BS), the beam failure information including (i) a single bitmap that indicates, for each of the plurality of secondary cells, whether the beam failure is detected and (ii) candidate beam information related to a candidate beam for each of the one or more secondary cells,
wherein a size of the candidate beam information is determined based on the number of bits having a specific bit value in the single bitmap.
11. The UE of claim 10 ,
wherein the UE communicates with at least one of a mobile terminal, a network, or an autonomous driving vehicle other than a vehicle containing the UE.
12. A base station (BS) configured to receive beam failure information in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:
at least one transmitter;
at least one receiver;
at least one processor; and
at least one memory operatively coupled to the at least one processor and configured to store instructions causing, when executed, the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a user equipment (UE), the beam failure information including (i) a single bitmap that indicates, for each of a plurality of secondary cells configured for the UE, whether a beam failure is detected and (ii) candidate beam information related to a candidate beam for each of one or more secondary cells in which the beam failure is detected among the plurality of secondary cells; and
based on the beam failure information, performing beam recovery operation for the one or more secondary cells in which the beam failure is detected,
wherein a size of the candidate beam information is determined based on the number of bits having a specific bit value in the single bitmap.
