User equipment, base station, and communication method
A method by a user equipment (UE) is described. The method includes receiving, from a base station, system information including a first configuration of a first initial uplink (UL) BWP and a second configuration of a second initial UL BWP wherein the second configuration includes a first RRC parameter, the first RRC parameter configures a cell-specific physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource set on the second initial UL BWP, and the cell-specific PUCCH resource set includes one or more PUCCH resources, receiving a PDCCH with a DCI format scheduling a PDSCH, and transmitting, on a PUCCH resource of the one or more PUCCH resources, a PUCCH with HARQ-ACK information in response to the PDSCH in the second initial UL BWP, wherein whether the UE uses a first formula or a second formula to calculate a PRB index of the PUCCH resource is determined based on one, more or all of a first frequency domain location of the first initial UL BWP, a first bandwidth of the first initial UL BWP, a second frequency domain location of the second initial UL BWP, and a second bandwidth of the second initial UL BWP, wherein the first formula uses a size of the second initial UL BWP as one of terms of the first formula, and the second formula does not use the size of the second initial UL BWP as one of terms of the second formula.
