Abstract

The DCI format at least indicates a set of interlaces if the DCI format indicates a set of RB-sets, resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and the set of the RB-sets, and if the DCI format doesn't indicate the set of the RB-sets, the resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and a pre-determined set of RB-sets where the pre-determined set includes one RB-set which corresponds to one downlink RB set in which the DCI format is received.

Claims (18)

1. A terminal device comprising:

reception circuitry configured to receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with a downlink control information (DCI) format scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); and

transmission circuitry configured to transmit the PUSCH in an active UL bandwidth part (BWP) of a serving cell, wherein:

the DCI format at least indicates a set of interlaces,

in a case that the DCI format indicates a set of resource block (RB)-sets, resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and the set of the RB-sets, and

in a case that the DCI format doesn't indicate the set of the RB-sets, the resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and a pre-determined set of RB-sets where the pre-determined set includes one RB-set which corresponds to one downlink RB set in which the DCI format is received.

2. A base station device comprising:

transmission circuitry configured to transmit a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with a downlink control information (DCI) format scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); and

reception circuitry configured to receive the PUSCH in an active UL bandwidth part (BWP) of a serving cell, wherein:

the DCI format at least indicates a set of interlaces,

in a case that the DCI format indicates a set of resource block (RB)-sets, resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and the set of the RB-sets, and

in a case that the DCI format doesn't indicate the set of the RB-sets, the resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and a pre-determined set of RB-sets where the pre-determined set includes one RB-set which corresponds to one downlink RB set in which the DCI format is transmitted.

3. A communication method used by a terminal device, the communication method comprising the step of:

receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with a downlink control information (DCI) format scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); and

transmitting the PUSCH in an active UL bandwidth part (BWP) of a serving cell, wherein:

the DCI format at least indicates a set of interlaces,

in a case that the DCI format indicates a set of resource block (RB)-sets, resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and the set of the RB-sets, and

in a case that the DCI format doesn't indicate the set of the RB-sets, the resource blocks for the PUSCH are given based on an intersection of the set of the interlaces and a pre-determined set of RB-sets where the pre-determined set includes one RB-set which corresponds to one downlink RB set in which the DCI format is received.
