Abstract

Disclosed are a method for scheduling control information and a method for receiving the scheduled control information in a mobile communication system. The method performed in a base station may comprise performing scheduling on a plurality of transmission time intervals (TTIs) including a first TTI to a Nth TTI which are temporally continuous, wherein N is a natural number larger than 1; and transmitting scheduling information obtained from the scheduling to a first terminal. Thus, power consumption of the terminal can be reduced, and overall system capacity can be increased.

Claims (21)

1. A scheduling method performed in a base station, the method comprising:

performing scheduling on a plurality of transmission time intervals (TTIs) including a first TTI to a N th TTI which are temporally continuous, wherein N is a natural number larger than 1; and

transmitting scheduling information obtained from the scheduling to a first terminal, wherein in the performing scheduling,

control information including position information of resource areas in a second TTI to the N th TTI to be decoded by the first terminal is mapped to a specific area of the first TTI, and

the resource areas in the second TTI to the N th TTI to be decoded by the first terminal include information which is changed dynamically from the control information mapped in the first TTI.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, in the performing scheduling, downlink data for the first terminal is scheduled or uplink transmission opportunity is scheduled on resource areas having same time-frequency position for the plurality of TTIs.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein, in the performing scheduling, control information including information related to a number of the plurality of TTIs is mapped to a specific resource area of the first TTI.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information which is changed dynamically includes an index of a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) process, a new data indicator (NDI), and redundancy version (RV) information.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein, when positions of the resource areas in the second TTI to the N th TTI to be decoded by the first terminal are fixed, control information to be decoded by the first terminal is scheduled on the resource areas as common search spaces.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein resources in the second TTI to the N th TTI, which are scheduled for the first terminal by the first TTI, can be scheduled for a second terminal.

7. A method for receiving control information scheduled on a plurality of transmission time intervals (TTIs) including a first TTI to a N th TTI which are temporally continuous, performed in a terminal, wherein N is a natural number larger than 1, the method comprising:

identifying first control information by performing blind decoding on a control region in the first TTI; and

identifying second control information by performing decoding on resource areas having same time-frequency position in a second TTI to the N th TTI, which are indicated by the first control information, wherein

the first control information include at least one of information related to a number of the plurality of TTIs and position information of resource areas in a second TTI to the N th TTI to be decoded by the first terminal, and

the second control information include information which is changed dynamically from the first control information.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

after identifying the second control information, reflecting the information which is changed dynamically from the first control information.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the second control information include an index of a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) process, a new data indicator (NDI), and redundancy version (RV) information.

10. The method of claim 7 , wherein, in the identifying second control information, when the second control information is not detected in a specific resource area indicated by the first control information, the terminal identifies that a TTI to which the specific resource area belongs is scheduled to another terminal.

11. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

receiving downlink data in each TTI based on the first control information and the second control information or transmitting uplink data using scheduled resources in each TTI based on the first control information and the second control information.
