Wireless communication method and user equipment for transmission on different bandwidth parts
A wireless communication method, performed by a User Equipment, for transmission on different BandWidth Parts (BWPs) includes receiving, a radio resource control (RRC) message configuring a first Physical Uplink Control CHannel-Configuration (PUCCH-Config) for a first UpLink (UL) BandWidth Part (BWP) of a first cell and a second PUCCH-Config for a second UL BWP of a second cell; receiving, from the first cell, Downlink Control Information (DCI) including fields to indicate a duration and a switching indication; and transmitting a PUCCH on the second UL BWP after receiving the DCI if the switching indication indicates the second cell.
1. A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) transmission on different BandWidth Parts (BWPs) of different PUCCH cells, the method comprising:
receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message configuring a first PUCCH-Configuration (PUCCH-Config) for a first UpLink (UL) BWP of a primary PUCCH cell and a second PUCCH-Config for a second UL BWP of a secondary PUCCH cell;
receiving, from the primary PUCCH cell, Downlink Control Information (DCI) including fields that indicate a duration between a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) scheduled by the DCI and transmission of a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request-Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) on a PUCCH and a switching between the primary PUCCH cell and the secondary PUCCH cell; and
transmitting the PUCCH on the second UL BWP of the secondary PUCCH cell after receiving the DCI when the switching indicates switching the PUCCH transmission from the primary PUCCH cell to the secondary PUCCH cell, wherein:
the primary PUCCH cell and the secondary PUCCH cell are within a same PUCCH cell group.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the duration is based on at least a Sub-Carrier Spacing (SCS) configuration of the second UL BWP.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting a UE capability message to indicate whether the UE supports transmitting the PUCCH on the second UL BWP after receiving the DCI.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein one of the fields of the DCI further indicates an Index (ID) of the secondary PUCCH cell as the cell for the switching.
5. A User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system for Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) transmission on different BandWidth Parts (BWPs) of different PUCCH cells, the UE comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the UE to:
receive a radio resource control (RRC) message configuring a first PUCCH-Configuration (PUCCH-Config) for a first UpLink (UL) BWP of a primary PUCCH cell and a second PUCCH-Config for a second UL BWP of a secondary PUCCH cell;
receive, from the primary PUCCH cell, Downlink Control Information (DCI) including fields that indicate a duration between a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) scheduled by the DCI and transmission of a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request-Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) on a PUCCH and a switching between the primary PUCCH cell and the secondary PUCCH cell; and
transmit the PUCCH on the second UL BWP of the secondary PUCCH cell after receiving the DCI when the switching indicates switching the PUCCH transmission from the primary PUCCH cell to the secondary PUCCH cell, wherein:
the primary PUCCH cell and the secondary PUCCH cell are within a same PUCCH cell group.
6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the duration is based on at least a Sub-Carrier Spacing (SCS) configuration of the second UL BWP.
7. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the computer-executable instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, further cause the UE to:
transmit a UE capability message to indicate whether the UE supports transmitting the PUCCH on the second UL BWP after receiving the DCI.
8. The UE of claim 5 , wherein one of the fields of the DCI further indicates an Index (ID) of the secondary PUCCH cell as the cell for the switching.
