Abstract

To appropriately control one or more UL transmissions in which configuration of priorities is supported. A terminal according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a receiving section that receives information related to simultaneous transmission of UL transmissions, and a control section that, when a plurality of UL transmissions with different priorities overlap in a time domain, controls transmission processing of the plurality of UL transmissions, based on the information related to the simultaneous transmission.

Claims (35)

1 . A terminal comprising:

a transmitter that transmits capability information of the terminal regarding support of simultaneous transmission of a plurality of uplink (UL) transmissions comprising a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) transmission and a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission with different priorities;

a receiver that receives information regarding simultaneous transmission of the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities; and

a processor that, when the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities overlap in a time domain, controls to simultaneously transmit the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities, based on the information regarding simultaneous transmission,

wherein the information regarding the simultaneous transmission includes a plurality of higher layer parameters,

the processor controls to apply simultaneous transmission of the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities in response to a first higher layer parameter of the plurality of higher layer parameters being configured enabled and not to apply simultaneous transmission of the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities in response to the first higher layer parameter not being configured enabled, and

a priority of a dynamic grant-based PUSCH is notified to the terminal using Downlink Control Information (DCI), and a priority of a configured grant-based PUSCH is configured for the terminal using a higher layer parameter.

2 . The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the capability information is reported per band combination.

3 . A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:

transmitting capability information of the terminal regarding support of simultaneous transmission of a plurality of uplink (UL) transmissions comprising a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) transmission and a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission with different priorities;

receiving information regarding simultaneous transmission of the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities,

wherein the information regarding the simultaneous transmission includes a plurality of higher layer parameters;

controlling to apply simultaneous transmission of the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities in response to a first higher layer parameter of the plurality of higher layer parameters being configured enabled and not to apply simultaneous transmission of the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities in response to the first higher layer parameter not being configured enabled; and

when the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities overlap in a time domain, controlling to simultaneously transmit the plurality of UL transmissions comprising the PUCCH transmission and the PUSCH transmission with different priorities, based on the information regarding simultaneous transmission,

wherein a priority of a dynamic grant-based PUSCH is notified to the terminal using Downlink Control Information (DCI), and a priority of a configured grant-based PUSCH is configured for the terminal using a higher layer parameter.

4 . A base station comprising:
