Abstract

The disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate than that of a beyond-4th 4G communication system such as a LTE. The system transmits or receives data and control information in a wireless or communication system. An operation method of a terminal is provided. The operation method includes determining the number (N RE ) of REs allocated to the terminal, determining an intermediate value based on the number of Res, when the intermediate value is smaller than a first reference value, determining the size of a transport block based on a predetermined first method and the intermediate value, or determining the size of the transport block based on the intermediate value and a plurality of predetermined values, and when the intermediate value is greater than the first reference value, determining the size of the transport block on the basis of the intermediate value.

Claims (34)

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

determining a number (N RE ) of resource elements (REs) allocated to the terminal;

determining an intermediate value based on the N RE ;

in case that the intermediate value is greater than or equal to a first reference value, determining a size of a transport block based on the intermediate value and a first equation;

in case that the intermediate value is between the first reference value and a second reference value being smaller than the first reference value, determining the size of the transport block based on the intermediate value and a plurality of predetermined values; and

in case that the intermediate value is smaller than or equal to the second reference value, determining the size of the transport block based on the intermediate value and a second equation,

wherein the first reference value is 3824, and the second reference value is smaller than the first reference value.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein, in case that the intermediate value is greater than the first reference value, the first equation depends on whether a value corresponding to a code rate is greater than a predetermined value.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

in case that the intermediate value is smaller than a third reference value being smaller than the second reference value, determining the size of the transport block based on a predetermined value.

4 . The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the intermediate value is determined based on at least one of the number of REs, a number of layers (v), a value (R or AR) corresponding to a code rate, or a modulation order (Qm), the code rate and the modulation order being determined based on a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) included in downlink control information (DCI), and

wherein the intermediate value is determined based on at least one of N RE ·Q m ·v·A R ·2 −13 or N RE ·Q m ·v·R.

5 . The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the size of the transport block is determined based on an integer value of the intermediate value, and

wherein the integer value of the intermediate value is determined based on at least one of a floor function, a ceiling function, or a round function.

6 . A terminal in a communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor configured to:

determine a number (N RE ) of resource elements (REs) allocated to the terminal,

determine an intermediate value based on the N RE ,

in case that the intermediate value is greater than or equal to a first reference value, determine a size of a transport block based on the intermediate value and a first equation,

in case that the intermediate value is between the first reference value and a second reference value being smaller than the first reference value, determine the size of the transport block based on the intermediate value and a plurality of predetermined values, and

in case that the intermediate value is smaller than or equal to the second reference value, determine the size of the transport block based on the intermediate value and a second equation,

wherein the first reference value is 3824, and the second reference value is smaller than the first reference value.

7 . The terminal of claim 6 , wherein, in case that the intermediate value is greater than the first reference value, the first equation depends on whether a value corresponding to a code rate is greater than a predetermined value.

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

in case that the intermediate value is smaller than a third reference value being smaller than the second reference value, determine the size of the transport block based on a predetermined value.

9 . The terminal of claim 6 ,

wherein the intermediate value is determined based on at least one of the number of REs, a number of layers (v), a value (R or AR) corresponding to a code rate, or a modulation order (Qm), the code rate and the modulation order being determined based on a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) included in downlink control information (DCI), and

wherein the intermediate value is determined based on at least one of N RE ·Q m ·v·A R ·2 −13 or N RE ·Q m ·v·R.

10 . The terminal of claim 6 ,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine the size of the transport block based on an integer value of the intermediate value, and

wherein the integer value of the intermediate value is determined based on at least one of a floor function, a ceiling function, or a round function.
