Abstract

The disclosure relates to a 5 th generation 5G or 6 th generation (6G) communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method of a base station in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), configuration information for configuring cross-carrier scheduling from a secondary cell (SCell) to a primary cell (PCell), transmitting, to the UE, at least one downlink control information (DCI), the at least one DCI including a carrier indicator field (CIF), and performing scheduling based on the at least one DCI.

Claims (36)

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

transmitting, to a base station, capability information including first information indicating support of cross-carrier scheduling from a secondary cell (SCell) to a primary cell (PCell), the capability information including second information indicating a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring method supported by the UE;

receiving, from the base station, configuration information for the cross-carrier scheduling from the SCell to the PCell, wherein the configuration information includes third information about transmission of at least one PDCCH on at least one first slot of the SCell for the cross-carrier scheduling of at least one second slot of the PCell;

in case that the third information indicates that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell, monitoring the at least one PDCCH on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with in part of the at least one second slot of the PCell;

in case that the third information does not indicate that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell, monitoring the at least one PDCCH on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with the at least one second slot of the PCell; and

receiving, from the base station, at least one downlink control information (DCI) via the at least one PDCCH.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving downlink data via a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or transmitting uplink data via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), based on the at least one DCI.

3. A method of a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a user equipment (UE), capability information including first information indicating support of cross-carrier scheduling from a secondary cell (SCell) to a primary cell (PCell), the capability information including second information indicating a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring method supported by the UE;

transmitting, to the UE, configuration information for the cross-carrier scheduling from the SCell to the PCell, wherein the configuration information includes third information about transmission of at least one PDCCH on at least one first slot of the SCell for the cross-carrier scheduling of at least one second slot of the PCell; and

transmitting, to the UE, at least one downlink control information (DCI) via the at least one PDCCH on the at least one first slot of the SCell based on the configuration information,

wherein the at least one PDCCH is transmitted on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with in part of the at least one second slot of the PCell, in case that the third information indicates that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell, and

wherein the at least one PDCCH is transmitted on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with the at least one second slot of the PCell, in case that the third information does not indicate that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

performing scheduled operation with the UE based on the at least one DCI.

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

a transceiver; and

at least one processor coupled to the transceiver and configured to:

transmit, to a base station, capability information including first information indicating support of cross-carrier scheduling from a secondary cell (SCell) to a primary cell (PCell), the capability information including second information indicating a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring method supported by the UE,

receive, from the base station, configuration information for the cross-carrier scheduling from the SCell to the PCell, wherein the configuration information includes third information about transmission of at least one PDCCH on at least one first slot of the SCell for the cross-carrier scheduling of at least one second slot of the PCell,

in case that the third information indicates that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell, monitor the at least one PDCCH on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with in part of the at least one second slot of the PCell.

in case that the third information does not indicate that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell. monitor the at least one PDCCH on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with the at least one second slot of the PCell, and

receive, from the base station, at least one downlink control information (DCI) via the at least one PDCCH.

6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

receive downlink data via a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or transmit uplink data via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), based on the at least one DCI.

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

a transceiver; and

at least one processor coupled to the transceiver and configured to:

receive, from a user equipment (UE), capability information including first information indicating support of cross-carrier scheduling from a secondary cell (SCell) to a primary cell (PCell), the capability information including second information indicating a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring method supported by the UE,

transmit, to the UE, configuration information for the cross-carrier scheduling from the SCell to the PCell, wherein the configuration information includes third information about transmission of at least one PDCCH on at least one first slot of the SCell for the cross-carrier scheduling of at least one second slot of the PCell, and

transmit, to the UE, at least one downlink control information (DCI) via the at least one PDCCH on the at least one first slot of the SCell based on the configuration information, .

wherein the at least one PDCCH is transmitted on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with in part of the at least one second slot of the PCell, in case that the third information indicates that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell, and

wherein the at least one PDCCH is transmitted on the at least one first slot of the SCell overlapping with the at least one second slot of the PCell, in case that the third information does not indicate that the transmission of the at least one PDCCH is restricted on the at least one first slot of the SCell.

8. The base station of claim 7 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

perform scheduled operation with the UE based on the at least one DCI.
