BWP activation method for terminal
The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus, wherein a terminal, for which a primary cell and a secondary cell are configured, performs a random access procedure, and a specific BWP on the secondary cell is activated on the basis that DCI received from a base station indicates non-dormancy.
1. A method comprising:
transmitting, by a base station (BS) to a user equipment (UE) for which a primary cell and secondary cells (SCells) are configured, information for search spaces to monitor physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for detection of downlink control information (DCI);
transmitting, by the BS to the UE, bandwidth part (BWP) information via a radio resource control (RRC) signal, wherein the BWP information informs of a specific BWP;
transmitting, by the BS to the UE, the DCI including a first field related to resource assignment for a specific cell and a second field related to a secondary cell dormancy for a group of configured SCells; and
receiving, by the BS from the UE, Hybrid Automatic Repeat and request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information related with the DCI,
wherein based on a current active BWP for the UE being a dormant BWP, the specific BWP informed by the BWP information is activated for each activated SCell in the group of configured SCells based on a value of a bit related with the group of configured SCells in the second field included in the DCI being 1.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is transmitted on the primary cell.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI indicates non-dormancy in units of a plurality of cells.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a maximum number of configurable BWPs per cell configured for the UE is four.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) is transmitted on the specific BWP.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dormant BWP is a BWP configured by a higher layer signaling.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the primary cell is a cell in which the UE performs an initial connection establishment procedure or a connection re-establishment procedure, and the secondary cell is a cell in which additional radio resources are provided to the UE.
8. A base station (BS), comprising:
at least one memory;
at least one transceiver; and
at least one processor operably connectable to the at least one transceiver and the at least one memory,
wherein the at least one memory stores instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
transmitting, by the BS to a user equipment (UE) for which a primary cell and secondary cells (SCells) are configured, information for search spaces to monitor physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for detection of downlink control information (DCI);
transmitting, to the UE, bandwidth part (BWP) information via a radio resource control (RRC) signal, wherein the BWP information informs of a specific BWP;
transmitting, to the UE, the DCI including a first field related to resource assignment for a specific cell and a second field related to a secondary cell dormancy for a group of configured SCells, and
receiving, from the UE, Hybrid Automatic Repeat and request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information related with the DCI,
wherein based on a current active BWP for the UE being a dormant BWP, the specific BWP informed by the BWP information is activated for each activated SCell in the group of configured SCells based on a value of a bit related with the group of configured SCells in the second field included in the DCI being 1.
9. The BS of claim 8 , wherein the DCI is transmitted on the primary cell.
10. The BS of claim 8 , wherein the DCI indicates non-dormancy in units of a plurality of cells.
11. The BS of claim 8 , wherein a maximum number of configurable BWPs per cell configured for the UE is four.
12. The BS of claim 8 , wherein at least one of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) is transmitted on the specific BWP.
13. The BS of claim 8 , wherein the dormant BWP is a BWP configured by a higher layer signaling.
14. The BS of claim 8 , wherein the primary cell is a cell in which the UE performs an initial connection establishment procedure or a connection re-establishment procedure, and the secondary cell is a cell in which additional radio resources are provided to the UE.
15. An apparatus comprising:
at least one memory; and
at least one processor operably connectable to the at least one memory,
wherein the at least one memory stores instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
transmitting, by a base station (BS) to a user equipment (UE) for which a primary cell and secondary cells (SCells) are configured, information for search spaces to monitor physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for detection of downlink control information (DCI);
transmitting, to the UE, bandwidth part (BWP) information via a radio resource control (RRC) signal, wherein the BWP information informs of a specific BWP;
transmitting, to the UE, the DCI including a first field related to resource assignment for a specific cell and a second field related to a secondary cell dormancy for a group of configured SCells, and
receiving, from the UE, Hybrid Automatic Repeat and request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information related with the DCI,
wherein based on a current active BWP for the UE being a dormant BWP, the specific BWP informed by the BWP information is activated for each activated SCell in the group of configured SCells based on a value of a bit related with the group of configured SCells in the second field included in the DCI being 1.
