Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting higher data transmission rates than 4th generation (4G) communication systems such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). According to an embodiment according to the present disclosure, provided is a method performed in a communication system by a terminal. The method performed by the terminal operation may include receiving configuration information about semi-static scheduling; receiving downlink control information (DCI) through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); checking whether the DCI activates the semi-static scheduling; checking whether the semi-static scheduling is configured in a bandwidth part (BWP), indicated by a BWP indicator included in the DCI, when the semi-static scheduling is activated; and discarding the DCI when the semi-static scheduling is not configured in the BWP.

Claims (48)

1 . A method performed by a terminal in a communication system, the method comprising:

receiving configuration information on semi-static scheduling;

receiving downlink control information (DCI) through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH);

determining whether the DCI activates semi-static scheduling;

based on determining that the DCI does not activate semi-static scheduling, discarding the DCI;

based on determining that the DCI activates semi-static scheduling, determining whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for a bandwidth part (BWP) indicated by a BWP indicator included in the DCI; and

based on determining that the semi-static scheduling is not configured for the BWP, discarding the DCI.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein determining whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for the BWP indicated by the BWP indicator included in the DCI comprises:

switching to the BWP indicated by the BWP indicator; and

determining whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for the switched BWP.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising activating the semi-static scheduling based on a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI being scrambled based on a configured scheduling (CS)-radio network temporary identifier (RNTI, a value of a new data indicator (NDI) field included in the DCI being 0, and a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number field and a redundancy version field included in the DCI satisfying a predetermined condition.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration information on the semi-static scheduling comprises at least one of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration information or ConfiguredGrant configuration information.

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

transmitting configuration information on semi-static scheduling;

transmitting downlink control information (DCI) through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH);

in response to determining that the DCI activates semi-static scheduling, determining whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for a bandwidth part (BWP) indicated by a BWP indicator included in the DCI; and

skipping, based on determining that the semi-static scheduling is not configured for the BWP, an operation for the semi-static scheduling.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein determining whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for the BWP indicated by the BWP indicator included in the DCI comprises:

switching to the BWP indicated by the BWP indicator; and

determining whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for the switched BWP.

7 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising activating the semi-static scheduling based on a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI being scrambled based on a configured scheduling (CS)-radio network temporary identifier (RNTI), a value of a new data indicator (NDI) field included in the DCI being 0, and a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number field and a redundancy version field included in the DCI satisfying a predetermined condition, and

wherein the configuration information on the semi-static scheduling comprises at least one of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration information or ConfiguredGrant configuration information.

8 . A terminal of a communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller configured to:

receive configuration information on semi-static scheduling through the transceiver,

receive downlink control information (DCI) through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) through the transceiver,

determine whether the DCI activates semi-static scheduling,

based on determining that the DCI does not activate semi-static scheduling, discard the DCI,

based on determining that the DCI activates semi-static scheduling, determine whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for a bandwidth part (BWP) indicated by a BWP indicator included in the DCI, and

discard the DCI, based on determining that the semi-static scheduling is not configured for the BWP.

9 . The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the controller is configured to:

switch to the BWP indicated by the BWP indicator, and

determine whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for the switched BWP.

10 . The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the semi-static scheduling is activated based on a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI being scrambled based on a configured scheduling (CS)-radio network temporary identifier (RNTI), a value of a new data indicator (NDI) field included in the DCI being 0, and a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number field and a redundancy version field included in the DCI satisfying a predetermined condition.

11 . The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the configuration information on the semi-static scheduling comprises at least one of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration information or ConfiguredGrant configuration information.

12 . A base station of a communication system, the base station comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller configured to:

transmit configuration information on semi-static scheduling through the transceiver,

transmit downlink control information (DCI) through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) through the transceiver,

determine whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for a bandwidth part (BWP) indicated by a BWP indicator included in the DCI, based on determining that the DCI activates semi-static scheduling, and

skip an operation for the semi-static scheduling, based on determining that the semi-static scheduling is not being-configured for the BWP.

13 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the controller is configured to:

switch to the BWP indicated by the BWP indicator, and

determine whether the semi-static scheduling is configured for the switched BWP.

14 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the semi-static scheduling is activated based on a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the DCI being scrambled based on a configured scheduling (CS)-radio network temporary identifier (RNTI), a value of a new data indicator (NDI) field included in the DCI being 0, and a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process number field and a redundancy version field included in the DCI satisfying a predetermined condition.

15 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein the configuration information on the semi-static scheduling comprises at least one of semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration information or ConfiguredGrant configuration information.
