Abstract

A method for receiving a signal by a wireless communication device according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise: monitoring candidates of a control channel in a BWP on the basis of a control channel search space set (SS) configuration and a CORESET configuration; and acquiring control information from the control channel detected as a result of the monitoring of the candidates, wherein: a control channel SS configured on the basis of the control channel SS configuration is associated with a CORESET configured on the basis of the CORESET configuration; the BWP includes one sub-band (SB) or two or more SBs; and in order to monitor the candidates, the wireless communication device configures each CORESET frequency resource area of each SB in the BWP on the basis of a CORESET frequency resource area of one specific SB in the BWP.

Claims (35)

1. A method performed by a wireless communication device, the method comprising:

receiving search-space set (SS) configurations and control resource set (CORESET) configurations;

monitoring physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates in a bandwidth part (BWP) including a plurality of subbands (SBs), based on the SS configurations and the CORESET configurations; and

obtaining downlink control information (DCI) from a PDCCH detected as a result of monitoring the PDCCH candidates,

wherein a CORESET is configured in each of the plurality of SBs in the BWP, based on a CORESET frequency resource area for a single SB among the plurality of SBs in the BWP,

wherein the CORESET configured in each of the plurality of SBs is associated with a same SS configuration which includes a single identifier for the CORESET configured in each of the plurality of SBs,

wherein, in a first time resource for which information regarding at least one available SB in the BWP is received, the monitoring of the PDCCH candidates is performed only for at least one available SB from among the plurality of SBs, and

wherein, in a second time resource for which the information regarding at least one available SB in the BWP is not received, the monitoring of the PDCCH candidates is performed for each of the plurality of SBs.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein information about the CORESET frequency resource area for the single SB is used commonly for each of the one or more SBs of the BWP.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein frequency locations for monitoring the PDCCH candidates are indicated on an SB basis by specific signaling, and the wireless communication device configures the CORESET in each of the plurality of SBs of the BWP based on information about the frequency locations for monitoring the PDCCH candidates being obtained by the specific signaling.

4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising obtaining information about a frequency location of the plurality of SBs of the BWP.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein each of the plurality of SBs in which the CORESET is configured is indicated by the obtained information about the frequency location.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the wireless communication device applies same antenna port quasi co-location (QCL) information to the CORESET configured in each of the plurality of SBs of the BWP.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the SS configurations and the CORESET configurations received through radio resource control (RRC) signaling.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of SBs of the BWP are listen-before-talk (LBT)-based SBs.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the wireless communication device wakes up and monitors the control channel candidates during an On Duration of a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the wireless communication device is a user equipment (UE) configured to operate in a 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP)-based wireless communication system.

11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting an uplink signal, in at least one of the plurality of SBs,

wherein, based on the uplink signal being a first type of uplink signal, generation and mapping of the uplink signal is SB-specifically generated and mapped.

12. A non-transitory processor-readable recording medium recorded thereon a program for performing the method according to claim 1 .

13. A device comprising:

at least one memory configured to store one or more instructions; and

at least one processor configured to perform operations by executing the one or more instructions stored in the at least one memory, the operations comprising:

receiving search-space set (SS) configurations and control resource set (CORESET) configurations;

monitoring physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates in a bandwidth part (BWP) including a plurality of subbands (SBs), based on the SS configurations and the CORESET configurations; and

obtaining downlink control information (DCI) from a PDCCH detected as a result of monitoring the PDCCH candidates,

wherein a CORESET is configured in each of the plurality of SBs in the BWP, based on a CORESET frequency resource area for a single SB among the plurality of SBs in the BWP,

wherein the CORESET configured in each of the plurality of SBs is associated with a same SS configuration which includes a single identifier for the CORESET configured in each of the plurality of SBs,

wherein, in a first time resource for which information regarding at least one available SB in the BWP is received, the monitoring of the PDCCH candidates is performed only for at least one available SB from among the plurality of SBs, and

wherein, in a second time resource for which the information regarding at least one available SB in the BWP is not received, the monitoring of the PDCCH candidates is performed for each of the plurality of SBs.

14. The device of claim 13 , further comprising:

a receiver; and

a transmitter,

wherein the device is a user equipment (UE).
