Abstract

Disclosed is a method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, including receiving, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the DCI scheduling downlink data for the UE, receiving the downlink data on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the received DCI, and transmitting, to the base station, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information in response to the reception of the downlink data, wherein a specific PDSCH processing capability associated with the transmission of the HARQ-ACK information is not applied to the PDSCH scheduled for the UE in case that the downlink data is multicast data.

Claims (54)

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

receiving, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the DCI scheduling downlink data for the UE;

receiving the downlink data on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the received DCI; and

transmitting, to the base station, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information in response to the reception of the downlink data,

wherein the transmission of the HARQ-ACK information is associated with a first PDSCH processing capability or a second PDSCH processing capability,

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability has a PDSCH processing time slower than a PDSCH processing time of the second PDSCH processing capability, and

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability is applied to the PDSCH scheduled by the PDCCH with the DCI in case that the downlink data is multicast data.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the DCI includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a group-radio network temporary identifier (G-RNTI) in case that the downlink data is the multicast data.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving configuration information used to identify the first and second PDSCH processing capabilities from the base station.

4. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the PDSCH processing capability represents a processing time until starting transmission of the HARQ-ACK information after a last symbol where the UE receives the downlink data on the PDSCH.

5. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor configured to:

receive, via the transceiver from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the DCI scheduling downlink data for the UE,

receive, via the transceiver, the downlink data on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the received DCI, and

transmit, to the base station, via the transceiver, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information in response to the reception of the downlink data,

wherein the transmission of the HARQ-ACK information is associated with a first PDSCH processing capability or a second PDSCH processing capability,

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability has a PDSCH processing time slower than a PDSCH processing time of the second PDSCH processing capability, and

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability is applied to the PDSCH scheduled by the PDCCH with the DCI in case that the downlink data is multicast data.

6. The UE of claim 5 ,

wherein the DCI includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a group-radio network temporary identifier (G-RNTI) in case that the downlink data is the multicast data.

7. The UE of claim 5 ,

wherein the processor is further configured to receive, via the transceiver, configuration information used to identify the first and second PDSCH processing capabilities from the base station.

8. The UE of claim 5 ,

wherein the PDSCH processing capability represent a processing time until starting transmission of the HARQ-ACK information after a last symbol where the UE receives the downlink data on the PDSCH.

9. A method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the DCI scheduling downlink data for the UE;

transmitting the downlink data on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the transmitted DCI; and

receiving, from the UE, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information in response to the transmission of the downlink data,

wherein the reception of the HARQ-ACK information is associated with a first PDSCH processing capability or a second PDSCH processing capability,

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability has a PDSCH processing time slower than a PDSCH processing time of the second PDSCH processing capability, and

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability is applied to the PDSCH scheduled by the PDCCH with the DCI in case that the downlink data is multicast data.

10. The method of claim 9 ,

wherein the DCI includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a group-radio network temporary identifier (G-RNTI) in case that the downlink data is the multicast data.

11. The method of claim 9 , further comprising transmitting configuration information used to identify the first and second PDSCH processing capabilities to the UE.

12. The method of claim 9 ,

wherein the PDSCH processing capability represent a processing time until starting transmission of the HARQ-ACK information after a last symbol where the UE receives the downlink data on the PDSCH.

13. A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor configured to:

transmit, to a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), the DCI scheduling downlink data for the UE,

transmit the downlink data on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the transmitted DCI, and

receive, from the UE, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information in response to the transmission of the downlink data,

wherein the reception of the HARQ-ACK information is associated with a first PDSCH processing capability or a second PDSCH processing capability,

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability has a PDSCH processing time slower than a PDSCH processing time of the second PDSCH processing capability, and

wherein the first PDSCH processing capability is applied to the PDSCH scheduled by the PDCCH with the DCI in case that the downlink data is multicast data.

14. The base station of claim 13 ,

wherein the DCI includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a group-radio network temporary identifier (G-RNTI) in case that the downlink data is the multicast data.

15. The base station of claim 13 ,

wherein the processor is further configured to transmit, via the transceiver, configuration information used to identify the first and second PDSCH processing capabilities to the UE.

16. The base station of claim 13 ,

wherein the PDSCH processing capability represents a processing time until starting transmission of the HARQ-ACK information after a last symbol where the UE receives the downlink data on the PDSCH.
