Description

  Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technology of a terminal device and method for realizing efficient communication.

In 3GPP (3rd General Partnership Project), which is a standardization project,
The standardization of EUTRA (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access) that realizes high-speed communication has been carried out by adopting flexible scheduling of predetermined frequency and time units called OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) communication method and resource block. Note that communication in general that adopts standardization technology in EUTRA may be referred to as LTE (Long Term Evolution) communication.

  Also, 3GPP is studying A-EUTRA (Advanced EUTRA), which realizes higher-speed data transmission and has upward compatibility with EUTRA. In EUTRA, base stations are communication systems based on a network consisting of almost identical cell configurations (cell sizes), but in A-EUTRA, base stations (cells) of different configurations are mixed in the same area. Communication systems on the premise of different networks (differential wireless networks, heterogeneous networks).

  For TDD (Time Division Duplex) carriers supporting only downlink transmission, feedback using SRS in which channel reciprocity is effective has been studied (Non-Patent Document 1).

“New WI proposal: SRS Carrier based Switching for LTE”, RP-160676, Mar. 7th-10th, 2015.

  In the communication apparatus (terminal apparatus and / or base station apparatus), efficient transmission may not be possible with conventional transmission power control or transmission control.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above, and an object thereof is to provide a terminal device and method capable of performing transmission power control or transmission control for efficiently performing communication.

First Embodiment
The first embodiment of the present invention will be described below. Base station apparatus (base station, node B, eNB (EUTRAN NodeB, evolved NodeB)) and terminal apparatus (terminal, mobile station, user apparatus, UE)
(User equipment)) is demonstrated using the communication system which communicates in a cell.

  The main physical channels and physical signals used in this embodiment and the frame structure will be described. A channel means a medium used for transmitting a signal, and a physical channel means a physical medium used for transmitting a signal. In the present embodiment, physical channels may be used synonymously with physical signals. A physical channel may be added in the LTE in the future, or its structure / configuration or format may be changed or added, but even if it is changed or added, the description of each embodiment of the present invention is not affected.

  The frame structure type according to the present embodiment will be described.

Frame structure type 1 (FS1) is applied to FDD (Frequency Division Duplex). That is, FS1 is applied to cell operations for which FDD is supported. FS1 is applicable to both FD-FDD (Full Duplex-FDD) and HD-FDD (Half Duplex-FDD).

In FDD, downlink transmission and uplink transmission are divided in the frequency domain. In other words, the operating band is defined for downlink transmission and uplink transmission, respectively. That is, different carrier frequencies are applied to downlink transmission and uplink transmission. Therefore, in FDD, 10 subframes are available for each of downlink transmission and uplink transmission. In HD-FDD operation, the terminal can not transmit and receive at the same time, but in FD-FDD operation, the terminal can transmit and receive at the same time.

  In HD-FDD operation, the terminal can not transmit and receive at the same time, but in FD-FDD operation, the terminal can transmit and receive at the same time.

  Furthermore, there are two types of HD-FDD. For Type A HD-FDD operation, the guard period is not received by the terminal by not receiving the last part (last symbol) of the downlink subframe immediately before the uplink subframe from the same terminal. It is generated. For Type B HD-FDD operation, the guard period, referred to as HD guard subframe, is the same as not receiving the downlink subframe immediately before the uplink subframe from the same terminal and It is generated by the terminal by not receiving the downlink subframe immediately after the uplink subframe from the terminal. That is, in the HD-FDD operation, the terminal apparatus generates a guard period by controlling the reception process of the downlink subframe. The symbols may include either OFDM symbols or SC-FDMA symbols.

  Frame structure type 2 (FS2) is applied to TDD (Time Division Duplex). That is, FS2 is applied to cell operations in which TDD is supported. Each radio frame is composed of two half frames. Each half frame is composed of five subframes. The UL-DL settings in a cell may be changed between radio frames. Control of subframes in uplink or downlink transmission may be performed in the latest radio frame. The terminal apparatus can obtain the UL-DL configuration in the latest radio frame via PDCCH or higher layer signaling. In addition, UL-DL setting shows the structure of an uplink sub-frame, a downlink sub-frame, and a special sub-frame in TDD. The special subframe is composed of DwPTS (Downlink Pilot Time Slot) capable of downlink transmission, a guard period (GP), and UpPTS (Uplink Pilot Time Slot) capable of uplink transmission. The configurations of DwPTS and UpPTS in the special subframe are managed in a table, and the terminal device can acquire the configuration via higher layer signaling. The special subframe is a switching point from downlink to uplink. That is, the terminal device transitions from reception to transmission at the switching point, and the base station device transitions from transmission to reception. The switching point has a 5 ms period and a 10 ms period. When the switching point has a 5 ms period, special subframes exist in both half frames. When the switching point has a 10 ms period, the special subframe is present only in the first half frame.

  When two symbols are allocated to UpPTS, SRS and PRACH preamble format 4 can be arranged.

Moreover, in TDD, an eIMTA (TDD enhanced Interference Management and Traffic Adaptation) technology can be applied in consideration of traffic (traffic volume) of each cell and interference. The eITMA changes the TDD configuration dynamically (using L1 level or L1 signaling) in consideration of downlink and / or uplink traffic volume and interference volume, that is, within the radio frame (ie, 10). This is a technology for performing optimal communication by changing the ratio of downlink subframes and uplink subframes in a subframe).

  NCP and ECP apply to FS1 and FS2.

  Frame structure type 3 (FS3) is applied to a Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) secondary cell operation. Also, only NCP may be applied to FS3. The 10 subframes included in the radio frame are used for downlink transmission. The terminal processes the subframe as an empty subframe, not assuming that any signal is present in a subframe, unless otherwise specified or unless downlink transmission is detected in that subframe. Downlink transmissions occupy one or more consecutive subframes. Consecutive subframes include the first subframe and the last subframe. The first subframe begins with any symbol or slot (eg, OFDM symbol # 0 or # 7) of that subframe. Also, the last subframe is occupied by the full subframe (ie, 14 OFDM symbols) or the number of OFDM symbols indicated based on one of the DwPTS periods. It should be noted that, among consecutive subframes, whether or not a certain subframe is the last subframe is indicated to the terminal apparatus by a certain field included in the DCI format. The field may further indicate the number of OFDM symbols used in the subframe in which the field is detected or the next subframe. Also, in FS3, the base station apparatus performs a channel access procedure related to LBT before performing downlink transmission.

  Although only downlink transmission is supported in FS3, uplink transmission may also be supported. At that time, FS3 supporting only downlink transmission may be defined as FS3-1 or FS3-A, and FS3 supporting downlink transmission and uplink transmission may be defined as FS3-2 or FS3-B.

  A terminal apparatus and a base station apparatus supporting FS3 may perform communication in an unlicensed frequency band.

  The operating band corresponding to the LAA or FS3 cell may be managed together with the EUTRA operating band table. For example, the EUTRA operating band index may be managed at 1 to 44, and the operating band index corresponding to the LAA (or the frequency of the LAA) may be managed at 46. For example, in the index 46, only the downlink frequency band may be defined. Also, in some indexes, uplink frequency bands may be reserved in advance as reserved or defined in the future. The corresponding duplex mode may be a duplex mode different from FDD or TDD, or may be FDD or TDD. The frequency at which LAA operation is possible is preferably 5 GHz or more, but may be 5 GHz or less. That is, communication of the LAA operation may be performed at the associated frequency as an operating band corresponding to the LAA.

  Next, downlink and uplink radio frame configurations according to the present embodiment will be described.

In addition, although the downlink sub-frame in one component carrier (CC) is described here, the downlink sub-frame is prescribed for every CC, and the downlink sub-frame is substantially synchronized between CCs. Here, “generally synchronized between CCs” means that, when transmitting using a plurality of CCs from the base station apparatus, the error of the transmission timing of each CC falls within a predetermined range.

As DLRS, CRS transmitted on the same antenna port (transmission port) as PDCCH, CSI-RS used for measurement of channel state information (CSI), UERS transmitted on the same antenna port as PDSCH, and EPDCCH There is a DMRS sent on the same send port. Moreover, the carrier in which CRS is not arrange | positioned may be sufficient. At this time, in some subframes (for example, the first and sixth subframes in a radio frame), as a signal for tracking time and / or frequency, some antenna ports of CRS (for example, antenna port 0) It is possible to insert a signal (referred to as an extended synchronization signal) similar to the signal corresponding to (only) or all antenna ports. Here, the antenna port may be referred to as a transmission port.

  Here, the PDCCH candidate may indicate a candidate for which the PDCCH may be deployed and / or transmitted by the base station apparatus. Also, the term “monitor” may include meaning that the terminal device tries to decode each of PDCCHs in the set of PDCCH candidates according to all DCI formats to be monitored.

  Here, the set of PDCCH candidates that the terminal apparatus monitors is also referred to as a search space. The search space may include a common search space (CSS). For example, CSS may be defined as a space common to a plurality of terminal devices.

  The search space may also include a user equipment specific search space (USS). For example, the USS may be provided based at least on the C-RNTI assigned to the terminal. The terminal device may monitor the PDCCH in the CSS and / or the USS to detect the PDCCH directed to the own device.

Moreover, RNTI which the base station apparatus allocated to the terminal device may be utilized for transmission (transmission by PDCCH) of DCI. Specifically, a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) parity bit may be added to the DCI format (which may be downlink control information), and then the CRC parity bit may be scrambled by the RNTI. Here, the CRC parity bits added to the DCI format may be obtained from the payload of the DCI format.

  Here, in the present embodiment, “CRC parity bit”, “CRC bit”, and “CRC” may be identical. Also, “PDCCH to which DCI format to which CRC parity bit is added is transmitted”, “PDCCH including CRC parity bit and including DCI format”, “PDCCH including CRC parity bit”, and “DCI format The “including PDCCH” may be identical. Also, “PDCCH including X” and “PDCCH with X” may be identical. The terminal may monitor the DCI format. Also, the terminal device may monitor DCI. Also, the terminal device may monitor the PDCCH.

The terminal device tries to decode the DCI format to which the CRC parity bit scrambled by the RNTI is added, and detects the DCI format in which the CRC is successful as the DCI format for the own device (also referred to as blind decoding) ). That is, the terminal device may detect the PDCCH with the CRC scrambled by the RNTI. Also, the terminal device may detect a PDCCH with a DCI format to which CRC parity bits scrambled by RNTI are added.

Also, for RNTI, SPS C-RNTI (Semi-Persistent Scheduling C-RNTI)
May be included. For example, SPS C-RNTI is a unique (unique) identifier for a terminal device used for semi-persistent scheduling. The SPS C-RNTI may also be utilized for semi-persistently scheduled unicast transmissions. Here, semi-persistently scheduled transmission may include the meaning of periodically scheduled transmission.

  Also, the RNTI may include RA-RNTI (Random Access RNTI). For example, RA-RNTI may be an identifier used for transmission of a random access response message. That is, RA-RNTI may be used for transmission of a random access response message in a random access procedure. For example, when transmitting a random access preamble, the terminal apparatus may monitor a PDCCH with a CRC scrambled by RA-RNTI. Also, the terminal device may receive a random access response on the PDSCH based on the detection of the PDCCH with the CRC scrambled by the RA-RNTI.

  Here, a PDCCH with a CRC scrambled by C-RNTI may be transmitted in USS or CSS. Also, a PDCCH with a CRC scrambled by SPS C-RNTI may be transmitted in USS or CSS. Also, a PDCCH with a CRC scrambled by RA-RNTI may be transmitted only in the CSS.

  M-RNTI, P-RNTI, SI-RNTI correspond to one value. For example, P-RNTI corresponds to PCH and PCCH and is used to notify of paging and change of system information. The SI-RNTI corresponds to the DL-SCH and the BCCH, and is used to broadcast system information. RA-RNTI corresponds to DL-SCH and is used for random access response.

  RA-RNTI, C-RNTI, SPS C-RNTI, temporary C-RNTI, eIMTA-RNTI, TPC-PUCCH-RNTI, and TPC-PUSCH-RNTI are configured using higher layer signaling.

  Predetermined values are defined for M-RNTI, P-RNTI, and SI-RNTI.

  A PDCCH with a CRC scrambled by each RNTI may have different corresponding transport channels or logical channels depending on the value of RNTI. That is, the indicated information may differ depending on the value of RNTI.

  One SI-RNTI is used to address SIB1 as well as all SI messages.

The PDSCH is used to transmit downlink data (Downlink Shared Channel: DL-SCH). Also, PDSCH is used to transmit a system information message. Here, the system information message may be cell specific information. Also, system information may be included in RRC signaling. Also, PDSCH may be used to transmit RRC signaling and MAC control elements.

  Also, PDSCH may be used to transmit the third UL grant. For example, the terminal apparatus may receive (detect) the third UL grant (information included in the third UL grant) in the PDSCH scheduled by the base station apparatus.

  The PMCH is used to transmit multicast data (Multicast Channel: MCH).

  The synchronization signal is used by the terminal to synchronize the downlink frequency domain and time domain. In the TDD scheme, synchronization signals are allocated to subframes 0, 1, 5, 6 in a radio frame. In the FDD scheme, synchronization signals are allocated to subframes 0 and 5 in a radio frame.

  The downlink reference signal is used by the terminal apparatus to perform channel correction of the downlink physical channel. Here, the downlink reference signal is used by the terminal device to calculate downlink channel state information.

DS is used for time frequency synchronization, cell identification, and RRM (Radio Resource Management) measurement (intra and / or inter frequency measurement) at a frequency at which a parameter related to DS is set. Also, DS is composed of a plurality of signals, which are transmitted in the same cycle. The DS may be configured using PSS / SSS / CRS resources, and may further be configured using CSI-RS resources. In DS, RSRP and RSRQ may be measured using resources to which CRS and CSI-RS are mapped.

BCH, MCH, UL-SCH and DL-SCH are transport channels. A channel used in a medium access control (MAC) layer is called a transport channel. The unit of transport channel used in the MAC layer is also referred to as transport block (TB) or MAC PDU (Protocol Data Unit). In the MAC layer, control of HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat request) is performed for each transport block. The transport block is a unit of data delivered by the MAC layer to the physical layer. In the physical layer, transport blocks are mapped to codewords, and encoding processing is performed for each codeword.

  Here, HARQ-ACK may indicate HARQ-ACK for downlink data (Transport block, Medium Access Control Protocol Data Unit: MAC PDU, Downlink-Shared Channel: DL-SCH, Physical Downlink Shared Channel: PDSCH). . That is, HARQ-ACK may indicate ACK (Acknowledgement, positive-acknowledgement) or NACK (Negative-acknowledgement) for downlink data. Also, CSI may be configured of channel quality indicator (CQI), precoding matrix indicator (PMI), and / or rank indication (RI). The HARQ-ACK may be referred to as a HARQ-ACK response.

  The PUCCH may have a format defined depending on the type and combination of UCI to be transmitted.

  PUCCH format 1 is used to send a positive SR.

  The PUCCH format 1a is used to transmit 1-bit HARQ-ACK or, in the case of FDD or FDD-TDD primary cell FS1, 1-bit HARQ-ACK with positive SR. In addition, FDD-TDD primary cell FS has shown FS of the primary cell in the case of performing FDD-TDD CA. In other words, it can be reworded as the primary cell of a certain FS in the FDD-TDD CA. Further, the same can be applied to the secondary cell.

  PUCCH format 1 b is used to transmit 2-bit HARQ-ACK or 2-bit HARQ-ACK with positive SR.

  Also, PUCCH format 1b is used to select up to 4 bits using channel selection when more than one serving cell is configured in the terminal, or when one serving cell is configured in the terminal in the case of TDD. It may be used to send a HARQ-ACK.

  Channel selection can change the interpretation of even the same bit value by selecting any one of a plurality of PUCCH resources. For example, even if the first PUCCH resource and the second PUCCH resource have the same bit value, the indicated contents may be different. By channel selection, HARQ-ACK can be extended by using multiple PUCCH resources.

  PUCCH format 2 is used to transmit a CSI report when HARQ-ACK is not multiplexed.

  Also, PUCCH format 5 may be used to transmit more than one CSI report, and (if any) an SR.

The number and arrangement of corresponding DMRSs may be different based on the PUCCH format.
For example, when NCP is added, three DMRSs are arranged in one slot for PUCCH format 1 / 1a / 1b, and two DMRSs are arranged in one slot for PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b / 3. DMRSs are arranged, and one DMRS is arranged in one slot for PUCCH format 4/5.

  When PUCCH is transmitted in SRS subframes, in PUCCH format (for example, format 1, 1a, 1b, 3) to which the short format is applied, the last 1 symbol or SRS may be allocated Two symbols (one symbol or two symbols at the end of the second slot in the subframe) may be emptied, that is, the PUCCH may be transmitted in a shortened format.

  The PUCCH format 1 / 1a / 1b and the PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b may be transmitted on the same RB. Cyclic shifts for PUCCH format 1 / 1a / 1b in RBs used for transmission of PUCCH format 1 / 1a / 1b and PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b may be set separately.

The PUSCH and / or the sPUSCH is used to transmit uplink data (Uplink-Shared Channel: UL-SCH). Hereinafter, PUSCH may include sPUSCH. Also, the PUSCH may be used to transmit HARQ-ACK and / or CSI along with uplink data. Also, PUSCH may be used to transmit only CSI or only HARQ-ACK and CSI. That is, PUSCH may be used to transmit only UCI.

Here, the base station apparatus and the terminal apparatus may exchange (transmit and receive) signals in the higher layer. For example, the base station apparatus and the terminal apparatus may transmit and receive RRC signaling (also referred to as RRC message or RRC information) in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer. Also, the base station apparatus and the terminal apparatus may exchange (transmit and receive) MAC control elements in a MAC (Medium Access Control) layer. Here, RRC signaling and / or MAC control elements are also referred to as higher layer signaling.

  Here, in the present embodiment, “upper layer parameter”, “upper layer message”, “upper layer signal”, “upper layer information”, and “upper layer information element” are the same. It may be

Also, PUSCH may be used to transmit RRC signaling and MAC Control Element (MAC CE). Here, RRC signaling transmitted from the base station apparatus may be common signaling to a plurality of terminal apparatuses in a cell. Also, RRC signaling transmitted from the base station apparatus may be dedicated signaling (also referred to as dedicated signaling) for a certain terminal apparatus. That is, user equipment specific information may be transmitted to a certain terminal device using dedicated signaling.

PRACH and / or sPRACH are used to transmit a random access preamble. Hereinafter, PRACH may include sPRACH. For example, PRACH (or random access procedure) is used mainly for the terminal device to synchronize in time domain with the base station device. In addition, PRACH (or random access procedure) includes initial connection establishment procedure, handover procedure, connection re-establishment procedure, synchronization for uplink transmission (timing adjustment), and scheduling request. It may also be used for transmission of (request of PUSCH resource, request of UL-SCH resource). Also, PRACH may be used to request PDSCH / DL-SCH resources.

  DMRS relates to PUSCH, sPUSCH, and / or PUCCH transmission. That is, the DMRS may be time-multiplexed with the PUSCH, the sPUSCH, or the PUCCH. For example, the base station apparatus may use DMRS to perform PUSCH, sPUSCH, or PUCCH channel correction. Depending on the type of physical channel to be demodulated, the DMRS may differ in the time multiplexing arrangement and the number of DMRSs to be multiplexed.

  The SRS is not related to PUSCH or PUCCH transmission. For example, the base station apparatus may use SRS to measure uplink channel conditions or transmission timing. In SRS, trigger type 0 SRS to be transmitted when the related parameter is set by the upper layer signal, and related parameter is set by the upper layer signal, and DCI format 0/4 for FDD and TDD. / 1A / 6-0A / 6-1A, and trigger type 1 SRS to be transmitted when transmission is requested by SRS request included in DCI format 2B / 2C / 2D for TDD. The trigger type 0 SRS may be referred to as periodic SRS (P-SRS), and the trigger type 1 SRS may be referred to as aperiodic SRS (A-SRS). DCI format 0/4 / 6-0A is an uplink grant used for PUSCH scheduling in one uplink cell (UL cell). The DCI format 1A / 2B / 2C / 2D / 6-1A is a downlink grant used for PDSCH scheduling.

  The SRS request included in the DCI format 0 / 1A / 2B / 2C / 2D is composed of 0 or 1 bit. Further, the SRS request included in the DCI format 4 is configured by 2 bits. In addition, the SRS request included in the DCI format 6-0A / 6-1A is configured by one bit. A setting (parameter set) related to trigger type 1 SRS may be set for each DCI format. Further, for the DCI format 4, a plurality of parameter sets may be set, and each parameter set may be associated with a 2-bit value. For example, when the value of the bit is "00", the transmission of trigger type 1 SRS is not triggered. If the bit value is “01”, the trigger type 1 SRS of parameter set 1 is transmitted. If the bit value is “10”, the trigger type 1 SRS of parameter set 2 is transmitted. If the bit value is “11”, the trigger type 1 SRS of parameter set 3 is transmitted. Some DCI formats may be a common set of parameters. For example, parameter sets for DCI format 1A / 2B / 2C / 2D may be common.

  The SRS is cell specific or common among the terminal devices (commonly set among the terminal devices in the cell), common parameter, terminal specific, or dedicated for the terminal device (for each terminal device). (Set) and set based on dedicated parameters. The terminal apparatus sets a bandwidth and a subframe to be used for SRS transmission using the common parameter and the dedicated parameter. The bandwidth and subframes used for SRS transmission may be referred to as SRS bandwidth and SRS subframes, respectively. Also, for each trigger type, these parameters may be set or some parameters may be common. For example, common parameters for bandwidth and subframes may be shared regardless of trigger type.

  Transmission using frequency hopping may be set to the trigger type 0 SRS.

  Transmission using antenna selection may be set to trigger type 0 SRS.

  Transmission using a plurality of antenna ports may be set as trigger type 0 SRS and trigger type 1 SRS. The antenna selection may not be set for the trigger type 0 SRS in which a plurality of antenna ports are set. The SRSs transmitted at each antenna port may be assigned different cyclic shift sequences.

  If trigger type 0 SRS and trigger type 1 SRS transmission occur in the same subframe of the same serving cell, the terminal transmits only trigger type 1 SRS.

  A terminal apparatus in which a plurality of TAGs (Timing Advance Groups) are not set does not transmit an SRS in the symbol whenever transmission of SRS and PUSCH overlap in the same symbol (symbol number, symbol area, symbol boundary).

  When there is one SC-FDMA symbol in UpPTS of the serving cell (TDD serving cell) with respect to a TDD serving cell and a terminal apparatus for which an additional SC-FDMA symbol is not set in UpPTS, the SC-FDMA symbol is , SRS transmission may be used. Also, when there are two SC-FDMA symbols in the UpPTS of the serving cell, both (both SC-FDMA symbols) may be used for SRS transmission. Also, for trigger type 0 SRS, both SC-FDMA symbols may be assigned to the same terminal.

  Assuming that two or four additional SC-FDMA symbols are set in the UpPTS of the serving cell, and in the terminal device, for the TDD serving cell, all (two or four SCs in the UpPTS of the serving cell). -All FDMA symbols may be used for SRS transmission. Also, for trigger type 0 SRS, at most two SC-FDMA symbols may be used from SC-FDMA symbols added to UpPTS.

  It is assumed that a plurality of TAGs are not set in a terminal device, or a plurality of TAGs are set in a terminal device and SRS and PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b occur simultaneously in the same subframe of the same serving cell. For example, the terminal device does not transmit trigger type 0 SRS whenever trigger type 0 SRS and PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b occur simultaneously in the same subframe. Also, the terminal device does not transmit trigger type 1 SRS whenever trigger type 1 SRS and PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b with HARQ-ACK occur simultaneously in the same subframe. Also, the terminal device does not transmit PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b without HARQ-ACK whenever trigger type 1 SRS and PUCCH format 2 / 2a / 2b without HARQ-ACK occur simultaneously in the same subframe.

If multiple TAGs are not set in the terminal device, or if multiple TAGs are set in the terminal device and SRS and PUCCH occur simultaneously in the same subframe of the same serving cell, the terminal device The upper layer parameter (ackNackSRS-SimultaneousTransmission) indicating whether simultaneous transmission of ACK / NACK and SRS is possible is “FALSE
In the same subframe, SRS transmission is not performed whenever SRS transmission and PUCCH transmission transmitting HARQ-ACK and / or positive SR occur simultaneously in the same subframe. Also, for FDD-TDD, and for the primary cell FS1, if the upper layer parameter is "TRUE", the SRS transmission, HARQ-ACK and / or positive SR in the same symbol are performed in the same symbol. The SRS is not transmitted whenever PUCCH transmission of the short format (shortened PUCCH format) occurs simultaneously, and the terminal device has the upper layer parameter “TRUE” unless otherwise prohibited. If in the same subframe, And RS transmission, and transmits the HARQ-ACK and / or positive SR, PUCCH transmission shortened format to transmit SRS whenever occur simultaneously.

  A terminal apparatus in which multiple TAGs are not configured simultaneously generates SRS of any serving cell and HARQ-ACK and / or positive SR in the same subframe, and PUCCH transmission in a standard format (standard PUCCH format) occurs simultaneously. Does not send SRS at any time.

  In UpPTS, the terminal apparatus does not transmit SRS whenever SRS transmission overlaps with the PRACH region for preamble format 4 or when it exceeds the range of uplink system bandwidth set in the serving cell.

  Assuming that the terminal apparatus is set to support the transmission of HARQ-ACK on SRS and PUCCH in one subframe, whether simultaneous transmission of ACK / NACK and SRS provided by higher layers is possible is possible. The upper layer parameters to be shown are determined. If the upper layer parameter is set to support the transmission of HARQ-ACK on SRS and PUCCH in one subframe, the terminal apparatus uses PUCCH format 1 / 1a / in the cell-specific SRS subframe of the primary cell. If 1b / 3 is to be transmitted, the terminal transmits HARQ-ACK and SR using the abbreviated PUCCH format, and the HARQ-ACK or SR symbol corresponding to the symbol (SRS location) in which SRS is allocated is punctured. Ru. Also, assuming that the terminal device transmits PUCCH format 4/5 overlapping with part or all of the cell specific SRS bandwidth of the cell specific SRS subframe of the primary cell, the terminal device uses the shortened PUCCH format. Send UCI.

  For PUCCH format 1 / 1a / 1b / 3, the shortened PUCCH format is used in the subframe even if the terminal device does not transmit SRS in the cell-specific SRS subframe of the primary cell. Otherwise, the terminal transmits PUCCH format 1 / 1a / 1b / 3 using the standard PUCCH format. The standard PUCCH format is a format in which SC-FDMA symbols corresponding to SRS allocation are not punctured.

  Assuming that PUCCH transmission overlaps with part or all of the cell-specific SRS bandwidth of the cell-specific SRS subframe of the primary cell with respect to PUCCH format 4/5, the terminal apparatus performs cell-specific SRS of the primary cell. The shortened PUCCH format is used in the subframe even if the SRS is not transmitted in the subframe. If not, the terminal transmits PUCCH format 4/5 using the standard PUCCH format.

  A terminal apparatus configured for trigger type 1 SRS transmission does not expect to receive, for the same subframe and the same serving cell, trigger events associated with different values of transmission parameters of trigger type 1 SRS configured by higher layer signaling. .

For a terminal device for which parameters (EIMTA-MainConfigServCell) related to enhanced interference management and traffic adaptation (eIMTA) have been set for the TDD serving cell and the serving cell, the terminal device is configured to perform eIMTA TDD UL /

One radio frame is composed of 10 subframes. Furthermore, one subframe is composed of two slots. That is, the time length of one subframe is 1 ms, and the time length of one slot is 0.5 ms. Also, resource blocks are used as a minimum unit of scheduling in which physical channels are allocated. A resource block is defined by a certain frequency domain consisting of a set of multiple subcarriers (for example, 12 subcarriers) on the frequency axis and a domain consisting of certain transmission time intervals (TTI, slots, symbols) . One subframe may be referred to as one resource block pair.

The TTI may be defined as a transmission unit or reception unit of a physical channel or physical signal. That is, the physical channel or physical signal time length may be defined based on the TTI length. The symbols may include SC-FDMA symbols and / or OFDM symbols. Also, the TTI length (TTI length) may be expressed by the number of symbols. Also, the TTI length may be expressed by a time length such as milliseconds (ms) or microseconds (μs).

Each symbol is mapped to a physical channel and / or a sequence related to the physical signal. In order to increase the detection accuracy of sequences, CPs are added to the sequences associated with physical channels and / or physical signals. CP includes NCP and ECP, and ECP has a longer sequence length to be added than NCP. The sequence length related to CP may be referred to as CP length.

If the terminal apparatus and the base station apparatus support functions related to LR (Latency Reduction), one TTI may be configured with a number less than 14 symbols in NCP (12 symbols in ECP). For example, the TTI length of one TTI may be configured by any of 2, 3, or 7 symbols. A TTI configured with a number of symbols less than 14 symbols in NCP (12 symbols in ECP) may be referred to as sTTI (short TTI, shorter TTI, shortened TTI).

For LR cells, primary cells / primary secondary cells / secondary cells may be defined as in LTE.

  In the present invention, the time domain may be represented by a time length or the number of symbols. Also, the frequency domain may be represented by the number of bandwidths, subcarriers, the number of resource elements in the frequency direction, and the number of resource blocks.

  In the LR cell, the TTI size may be changeable based on the subframe type, upper layer setting information, and control information included in L1 signaling.

  In the LR cell, access which does not require a grant may be possible. Note that access that does not require a grant is an access that does not use control information (DCI format, downlink grant, uplink grant) that indicates the schedule of PDSCH or PUSCH (downlink or uplink shared channel / data channel). It is. That is, in the LR cell, an access scheme that does not perform dynamic resource allocation or transmission instruction using PDCCH (downlink control channel) may be applied.

  In the LR cell, the terminal device performs the same HARQ-ACK and / or CSI feedback corresponding to the downlink resource (signal, channel) based on the function (performance, capability) of the terminal device and the setting from the base station device. It may be performed using uplink resources (signals, channels) mapped to subframes. In this subframe, a reference resource related to CSI for the measurement result of CSI in a certain subframe may be CRS or CSI-RS of the same subframe. Such subframes may be referred to as self-contained subframes.

  Note that a self-contained subframe may be composed of one or more consecutive subframes. That is, a self-contained subframe may be composed of a plurality of subframes or may be one transmission burst composed of a plurality of subframes. It is preferable that the last sub-frame (the last sub-frame including the last) constituting the self-contained sub-frame is an uplink sub-frame or a special sub-frame. That is, it is preferable that the uplink signal / channel be transmitted in this last subframe.

  When a self-contained subframe is composed of a plurality of downlink subframes and one uplink subframe or special subframe, HARQ-ACK for each of the plurality of downlink subframes is that one uplink It may be transmitted in the UpPTS of link subframes or special subframes.

The communication apparatus determines ACK or NACK for the signal based on whether the signal can be received (demodulated and decoded). The ACK indicates that the communication device could receive the signal, and the NACK indicates that the communication device could not receive the signal. The communication apparatus to which NACK is fed back may retransmit a signal that is NACK. The terminal apparatus determines whether to retransmit PUSCH based on the content of HARQ-ACK for PUSCH transmitted from the base station apparatus. The base station apparatus determines whether to retransmit PDSCH based on the content of HARQ-ACK for PDSCH or PDCCH / EPDCCH transmitted from the terminal apparatus. The ACK / NACK for the PUSCH transmitted by the terminal apparatus is fed back to the terminal apparatus using PDCCH or PHICH. The ACK / NACK for PDSCH or PDCCH / EPDCCH transmitted by the base station apparatus is fed back to the base station apparatus using PUCCH or PUSCH.

  In the present invention, a subframe indicates a transmission unit and / or a reception unit of a base station apparatus and / or a terminal apparatus.

  The base station apparatus determines that the terminal apparatus is an LR (Latency Reduction) device based on LCID (Logical Channel ID) for CCCH (Common Control Channel) and terminal apparatus capability information (performance information, function information). It is also good.

  Processing time (processing delay, latency) based on the length of the TTI (number of symbols) used for the received signal and / or the transmitted signal, when the terminal device and / or the base station device support the capability for LR May be determined. That is, the processing time of the terminal device and / or the base station device supporting the capability for LR may be variable based on the TTI length for the received signal and / or the transmitted signal.

  S1 signaling is extended to include terminal radio capability information for paging. When the paging-specific capability information is provided by the base station apparatus to the MME (Mobility Management Entity), the MME uses this information to instruct the base station apparatus that the paging request from the MME relates to the LR terminal. May be An identifier may be called an ID (Identity, Identifier).

The terminal capability information (UE radio access capability, UE EUTRA capability) starts a procedure for a terminal device in connected mode when the base station device (EUTRAN) needs capability information of the terminal device. The base station apparatus queries the capability information of the terminal apparatus. The terminal device transmits the capability information of the terminal device in response to the inquiry. The base station apparatus determines whether or not it corresponds to the capability information, and if it corresponds, transmits configuration information corresponding to the capability information to the terminal apparatus using higher layer signaling or the like. The terminal device determines that transmission / reception based on the function is possible by setting the setting information corresponding to the capability information.

  Parameters relating to the configuration of physical channels and / or physical signals may be configured in the terminal device via higher layer signaling as higher layer parameters. Also, parameters related to the configuration of some physical channels and / or physical signals may be configured in the terminal apparatus via L1 signaling (physical layer signaling, for example, PDCCH / EPDCCH) such as DCI format and grant. Also, default parameters or default values for parameters related to physical channel and / or physical signal settings may be preset in the terminal device. Also, the terminal device may update the default value when notified of the parameters related to their settings using higher layer signaling. Also, depending on the corresponding configuration, the type of upper layer signaling / message used to notify the configuration may be different. For example, higher layer signaling / messages may include RRC messages, broadcast information, system information, and so on.

When transmitting DS on the LAA frequency, the base station apparatus may map data information and / or control information in the DS occasion. The data information and / or control information may include information on the LAA cell. For example, the data information and / or control information includes the frequency to which the LAA cell belongs, the cell ID, the load and congestion status, interference /
It may include transmission power, channel occupancy time, and buffer status for transmission data.

  At the LAA frequency, if DS is measured, the resources used for each signal included in DS may be expanded. For example, CRS may use resources corresponding to antenna ports 2 and 3 as well as antenna port 0. Also, in CSI-RS, not only antenna port 15 but also resources corresponding to antenna ports 16 and 17 may be used.

  In the LR cell, when a resource related to DS is set in the terminal device using higher layer signal (RRC signaling) or system information, L1 signaling (control information corresponding to a field with PDCCH or DCI format) or L2 signaling (Control information corresponding to MAC CE), that is, a signal of a lower layer (a signal of a layer below the RRC layer) may be used to dynamically indicate whether or not to receive DS.

  In the LR cell, the RS for demodulation / decoding and the RS for CSI measurement may be a common resource, or may be different resources when defined separately.

  Next, cell search according to the present embodiment will be described.

  In LTE, cell search is a procedure for performing time-frequency synchronization of a cell where a terminal apparatus is present and detecting a cell ID of the cell. EUTRA cell search supports a scalable total transmission bandwidth corresponding to 72 subcarriers or more. EUTRA cell search is performed on the downlink based on PSS and SSS. The PSS and SSS are transmitted using 72 subcarriers at the center of the bandwidth of the first and sixth subframes of each radio frame. The adjacent cell search is performed based on the same downlink signal as the initial cell search.

  When communication is performed in a stand-alone type in LR, the same cell search as described above may be performed.

  Next, measurement of the physical layer according to the present embodiment will be described.

  In LTE, measurements of physical layer include measurement of intra-frequency and inter-frequency within EUTRAN (RSRP / RSRQ), measurement of time difference between received transmission of terminal equipment and reference signal time difference used for positioning of terminal equipment (RSTD) , Measurements on inter-RAT (EUTRAN-GERAN / UTRAN), and measurements on inter-system (EUTRAN-non-3GPP RAT). Note that physical layer measurements are performed to support mobility. In addition, EUTRAN measurement includes measurement performed by a terminal device in idle mode and measurement performed by a terminal device in connection mode. The terminal performs EUTRAN measurements in the appropriate measurement gap and is synchronized to the cell that made the EUTRAN measurements. In addition, since these measurements are performed by the terminal device, they may be referred to as measurement of the terminal device.

  The terminal may support at least two physical quantities (RSRP, RSRQ) for measurements in EUTRAN. Furthermore, the terminal may support physical quantities related to the RSSI. The terminal device may perform the corresponding measurement based on the parameter related to the physical quantity set as the upper layer parameter.

Physical layer measurements are taken to support mobility. For example, measurement (RSRP / RSRQ) in EUTRAN of intra frequency and inter frequency, time difference between reception and transmission of the terminal device, measurement (RSTD) on reference signal time difference used for positioning of the terminal device, inter RAT (EUTRAN) -Measurement for GERAN / UTRAN, measurement for inter-system (EUTRAN-non-3GPP RAT), etc. For example, physical layer measurements include measurements for intra and inter frequency handovers, measurements for inter-RAT handovers, timing measurements, measurements for RRM, and measurements for positioning if supported. The measurement for inter-RAT handover is defined in the support of handover to GSM (registered trademark), UTRA FDD, UTRA TDD, CDMA2000, 1xRTT, CDMA2000 HRPD, and IEEE 802.11. Also, EUTRAN measurements are used to support mobility. In addition, EUTRAN measurement includes measurement performed by a terminal device in idle mode and measurement performed by a terminal device in connection mode. For example, for each of intra and inter frequencies, RSRP and RSRQ may be measured regardless of whether the terminal device is in idle mode or connected mode. The terminal performs EUTRAN measurements in the appropriate measurement gap and is synchronized to the cell that made the EUTRAN measurements.

  Physical layer measurements include that radio characteristics are measured by the terminal and base station equipment and reported to the upper layers of the network.

  In the present embodiment, “the CP is added to the OFDM symbol and / or SC-FDMA symbol” means “the CP sequence is added to the sequence of physical channels transmitted by the OFDM symbol and / or SC-FDMA symbol. May be the same as

  In the present embodiment, the terminal apparatus and / or the base station apparatus are configured with the cell in which the setting regarding uplink (the setting regarding each of PUSCH, PUCCH, PRACH, and SRS) is set, and the setting regarding some uplink (for example, PUSCH Communication is performed using a cell for which no setting is made. In the present embodiment, a cell in which uplink related settings are configured is referred to as a first cell or a first serving cell and / or a first type of cell (serving cell), and some uplink related settings (for example, PUSCH The cell in which the setting regarding (1) is not set may be referred to as a second cell and / or a second serving cell and / or a second type of cell (serving cell). Note that the second cell or the second serving cell may be FS2 (TDD). Also, the second cell or the second serving cell may be a secondary cell.

  Next, an example of SRS transmission control according to the present embodiment will be described. In this example, in the case where a plurality of TAGs are not set in the terminal device and in the case where the plurality of TAGs are set in the terminal device, transmission of SRS and PUCCH simultaneously occurs in the same subframe of the same serving cell. May be applied.

  If PUCCH transmission and SRS transmission occur in the same subframe of the first serving cell, the terminal device performs the SRS in the subframe based on the UCI transmitted on the PUCCH and the trigger type of the SRS. It may be determined whether to transmit or not.

  If HARQ-ACK is transmitted on the PUCCH, the terminal apparatus does not transmit an SRS regardless of the trigger type of the SRS. In other words, if PUCCH transmission with HARQ-ACK and SRS (trigger type 0 SRS and / or trigger type 1 SRS) transmission occur in the same subframe of the first serving cell, the terminal device does not transmit SRS.

  In the PUCCH, when HARQ-ACK is not transmitted and only CSI is transmitted, the terminal device is configured based on which cell the CSI corresponds to which CSI and the trigger type of the SRS. , And may determine whether to transmit the SRS.

  When only the CSI corresponding to the first serving cell is included in the CSI and the SRS is a trigger type 0 SRS, the terminal device does not transmit the SRS.

  When only the CSI corresponding to the first serving cell is included in the CSI and the SRS is the trigger type 1 SRS, the terminal device transmits the PUCCH (PUCCH without HARQ-ACK) do not do.

  When the CSI corresponding to the second serving cell is included in the CSI and the SRS is a trigger type 0 SRS, the terminal device does not transmit the SRS.

  When the CSI corresponding to the second serving cell is included in the CSI and the SRS is a trigger type 1 SRS, the terminal device does not transmit the SRS.

  That is, when the CSI corresponding to the second serving cell is included in the CSI, transmission of a PUCCH accompanied by the CSI may be prioritized.

  Note that, in the present embodiment, the CSI corresponding to the second serving cell may not include information on some of the indicators. For example, CSI corresponding to the second serving cell may not include information on PMI. Also, information (indicator) included in CSI corresponding to the second serving cell may be determined based on the upper layer parameter.

  Next, another example of transmission control of SRS according to the present embodiment will be described. In this example, in the case where a plurality of TAGs are not set in the terminal device and in the case where the plurality of TAGs are set in the terminal device, transmission of SRS and PUCCH simultaneously occurs in the same subframe of the same serving cell. May be applied.

  If the PUCCH transmission in the first serving cell and the SRS transmission in the second serving cell occur simultaneously in the same subframe, the terminal apparatus determines the sub-system based on the UCI transmitted in the PUCCH and the trigger type of the SRS. In the frame, it may be determined whether to transmit the SRS.

  In the PUCCH, if HARQ-ACK is transmitted regardless of the serving cell, the terminal apparatus does not transmit SRS regardless of the trigger type of the SRS. In other words, if PUCCH transmission with HARQ-ACK and SRS (trigger type 0 SRS and / or trigger type 1 SRS) transmission occur in the same subframe of the first serving cell, the terminal device does not transmit SRS. Note that HARQ-ACK may correspond to any serving cell.

  In the PUCCH, when HARQ-ACK is not transmitted and only CSI is transmitted, the terminal device is configured based on which cell the CSI corresponds to which CSI and the trigger type of the SRS. , And may determine whether to transmit the SRS.

If only the CSI corresponding to the first serving cell is included in the CSI, and the SRS is the trigger type 0 SRS, the terminal apparatus performs the PUCCH (HARQ-A
Do not send PUCCH without CK.

  When only the CSI corresponding to the first serving cell is included in the CSI and the SRS is the trigger type 1 SRS, the terminal device transmits the PUCCH (PUCCH without HARQ-ACK) do not do.

  When the CSI corresponding to the second serving cell is included in the CSI and the SRS is a trigger type 0 SRS, the terminal device does not transmit the SRS.

  When the CSI corresponding to the second serving cell is included in the CSI and the SRS is a trigger type 1 SRS, the terminal device does not transmit the SRS.

  If more than one second serving cell is configured, it is assumed that SRS transmission occurs simultaneously in the same subframe in a plurality of second serving cells (for example, the second serving cell 1 and the second serving cell 2). For example, if carrier aggregation for the plurality of second serving cells is supported, the terminal device transmits the SRS of each second serving cell regardless of the trigger type of the SRS of each second serving cell. May be If the total SRS transmission power of the plurality of second serving cells exceeds the maximum output power set by the terminal device, each second transmission power does not exceed the maximum output power. The transmission power of the SRS of the serving cell may be scaled.

When the second serving cell is configured to be more than one, it is assumed that SRS transmission occurs simultaneously in the same subframe in a plurality of second serving cells (for example, the second serving cell 1 and the second serving cell 2). For example, the terminal device may transmit the SRS of any second serving cell. Which second serving cell to transmit the SRS may be determined based on the subframe number (slot number), or may be determined based on the radio frame number, or the transmission period of SRS (periodicity) Or may be determined based on certain upper layer parameters. The upper layer parameter may be a parameter associated with the indication of SRS carrier switching.

  Next, setting (parameter set) related to the SRS according to the present embodiment will be described.

  The setting / upper layer parameter regarding SRS for the second serving cell may be the setting / upper layer parameter regarding SRS for the first serving cell.

  When the setting / upper layer parameter (parameter set) related to SRS for the second serving cell is applied to the setting / upper layer parameter related to SRS for the first serving cell, the parameter for SRS for the second serving cell is Only common parameters may be applied. That is, the bandwidth or subframe for SRS for the second serving cell may be set based on the bandwidth or a common parameter for subframe.

  Also, the configuration regarding the SRS for the second serving cell may be configured separately from the configuration / upper layer parameters regarding the SRS for the first serving cell.

Also, when only the setting related to trigger type 1 SRS is configured for the second serving cell, part or all of downlink grants (DCI format 1A / 2B / 2C / 2D, or the like for the second serving cell, or , SRS request included in DCI format related to downlink transmission may be configured with 2 bits or a predetermined number of bits. That is, more than one parameter set may be set for the downlink grant. In addition, when the setting for trigger type 1 SRS with respect to the downlink grant for the second serving cell is set as the upper layer parameter more than one, the number of bits of the SRS request included in the corresponding downlink grant is It may be more than one bit.

  Also, if only the setting related to trigger type 1 SRS is configured for the second serving cell, parameters related to frequency hopping may be included. That is, trigger type 1 SRS for the second serving cell may be supported for transmission with frequency hopping.

  The band combination of the operating band for the first serving cell and the operating band for the second serving cell may be predefined.

  Next, transmission timing adjustment of the SRS according to the present embodiment will be described.

  When setting regarding PRACH or sPRACH is configured for the second cell, the base station apparatus calculates a TA value from the PRACH. The base station apparatus can adjust the transmission timing for the SRS of the second cell by transmitting a TA command for the second cell to the terminal apparatus.

  When a measurement and reporting event regarding the time difference between reception and transmission of the terminal apparatus is set for the second cell, the terminal apparatus reports the measurement result regarding the time difference to the base station apparatus based on the reporting event. .

  Next, an example of transmission power control of SRS according to the present embodiment will be described.

  The transmission power of SRS in the first serving cell is the transmission bandwidth of SRS for the first serving cell, the power offset for SRS, the standard power parameter for PUSCH and the power parameter specific to the terminal equipment, and the power control based on the TPC command for PUSCH It may be calculated based on the adjustment value, downlink path loss, channel compensation coefficient related to downlink path loss, and / or maximum output power set by the terminal device.

  On the other hand, in the second serving cell, since there is no setting regarding PUSCH, the transmission power of SRS in the second serving cell, the power based on the standard power parameter for PUSCH and the power parameter specific to terminal equipment, and the TPC command for PUSCH It may not be possible to use control adjustments. Therefore, the transmission power of SRS in the second serving cell is the transmission bandwidth of SRS, the power offset for SRS, the standard power parameter for SRS, the power parameter specific to the terminal apparatus, the power control adjustment value based on the TPC command for SRS, It may be calculated based on the downlink path loss, the channel compensation coefficient related to the downlink path loss, and / or the maximum output power set by the terminal device. Also, the transmission power of SRS in the second serving cell may be set as an upper layer parameter. Note that the standard power parameter for SRS and the terminal device specific power parameter may be one power parameter. Also, the standard power parameter for SRS, the power parameter specific to the terminal apparatus, and the power offset for SRS may be one power parameter.

  The power control adjustment value based on the TPC command for SRS may be calculated based on the TPC command included in the DCI format (downlink grant) for scheduling the PDSCH for the second serving cell.

  Also, the power control adjustment value based on the TPC command for SRS may be calculated based on the TPC command for PUCCH included in the DCI format for scheduling PDSCH for the second serving cell. However, if the TPC command for PUCCH is used to determine the PUCCH resource used to transmit the HARQ-ACK for PDSCH in the second serving cell, the TPC command for PUCCH is the power control adjustment value of It may not be used for calculation. Whether to apply the TPC command for PUCCH to the power control adjustment value used for SRS transmission power may be determined based on certain upper layer parameters.

  Also, whether or not the TPC command for SRS is included in the downlink grant for the second serving cell may be determined based on certain upper layer parameters, or is SRS for the second serving cell configured? It may be determined based on whether TPC command for PUCCH is used for PUCCH resources or not. If the TPC command for the PUCCH is not used for the PUCCH resource, the terminal apparatus may interpret the TPC command for the PUCCH as a TPC command for the SRS. Note that whether or not the TPC command for SRS is included in the downlink grant for the second serving cell may be defined for each downlink grant (DCI format related to downlink transmission). That is, based on certain upper layer parameters, it may be determined whether or not the TPC command for SRS is included for each downlink grant.

  The coverage (communication area) of each frequency controlled by the base station apparatus is regarded as a cell. At this time, the communication areas covered by the base station apparatus may have different sizes and different shapes for each frequency. Also, the area to be covered may be different for each frequency. A wireless network in which cells having different base station device types and cell radius sizes are mixed in areas of the same frequency and / or different frequencies to form one communication system is referred to as a heterogeneous network. .

  The terminal device is not connected to any network immediately after the power is turned on (for example, at the time of start-up). Such a disconnection state is referred to as an idle mode (RRC idle). The terminal device in idle mode needs to be connected to any network in order to communicate. That is, the terminal device needs to be in the connection mode (RRC connection). Here, the network may include a base station apparatus, an access point, a network server, a modem, and the like belonging to the network.

  The terminal device and the base station apparatus are the technology of aggregating (aggregating) frequencies (component carriers or frequency bands) of a plurality of different frequency bands (frequency bands) by CA and treating them as one frequency (frequency band) May apply. The component carriers include an uplink component carrier corresponding to the uplink (uplink cell) and a downlink component carrier corresponding to the downlink (downlink cell). Frequency and frequency bands may be used interchangeably in each embodiment of the present invention.

For example, when five component carriers having a frequency bandwidth of 20 MHz are aggregated by CA, a terminal apparatus having a capability capable of CA may perform transmission and reception by regarding these as a 100 MHz frequency bandwidth. The component carriers to be aggregated may be continuous frequencies or frequencies in which all or part of the component carriers are discontinuous. For example, if the usable frequency bands are 800 MHz, 2 GHz and 3.5 GHz, one component carrier is transmitted in 800 MHz, another component carrier is transmitted in 2 GHz, and another component carrier is transmitted in 3.5 GHz. It may be The terminal device and / or the base station device may simultaneously transmit and / or receive using component carriers (component carriers corresponding to cells) belonging to their operating bands.

  Moreover, it is also possible to aggregate a plurality of continuous or discontinuous component carriers in the same frequency band. The frequency bandwidth of each component carrier may be a frequency bandwidth (for example, 5 MHz or 10 MHz) narrower than the receivable frequency bandwidth (for example, 20 MHz) of the terminal device, and the frequency bandwidths to be aggregated may be different. It is also good. A terminal apparatus and / or a base station apparatus having the function of NX may support both a cell having backward compatibility with an LTE cell and a cell having no backward compatibility.

  In addition, a terminal device and / or a base station device having an LR function may aggregate a plurality of component carriers (carrier types, cells) not backward compatible with LTE. The number of uplink component carriers allocated (set or added) to the terminal device by the base station apparatus may be the same as or smaller than the number of downlink component carriers.

  A cell configured of an uplink component carrier on which an uplink control channel is set for radio resource request and a downlink component carrier that is cell-specifically connected to the uplink component carrier is referred to as a PCell. Moreover, the cell comprised from component carriers other than PCell is called SCell. The terminal device may perform reception of a paging message, detection of update of broadcast information, initial access procedure, setting of security information, and the like on the PCell, but may not perform these on the SCell.

Although PCell is not targeted for activation (activation) and deactivation (deactivation) (that is, it is always considered to be activated), SCell has a state of activation and inactivation, These state changes are explicitly specified from the base station apparatus, and are also changed based on a timer set in the terminal apparatus for each component carrier. The PCell and SCell are collectively referred to as a serving cell (serving cell).

  A terminal apparatus and / or a base station apparatus supporting both LTE cells and LR cells form a cell group for LTE cells and a cell group for LR cells when performing communication using both LTE cells and LR cells You may That is, in each of the cell group for the LTE cell and the cell group for the LR cell, a cell corresponding to the PCell may be included.

  CA is communication by a plurality of cells using a plurality of component carriers (frequency bands), and is also referred to as cell aggregation. Note that the terminal device may be wirelessly connected (RRC connection) to the base station device via the relay station device (or repeater) for each frequency. That is, the base station apparatus of this embodiment may be replaced with a relay station apparatus.

  The base station apparatus manages, for each frequency, cells which are areas in which the terminal apparatus can communicate with the base station apparatus. One base station apparatus may manage a plurality of cells. The cells are classified into a plurality of types according to the size (cell size) of the area capable of communicating with the terminal device. For example, cells are classified into macro cells and small cells. Furthermore, small cells are classified into femtocells, picocells, and nanocells according to the size of the area. Further, when the terminal apparatus can communicate with a certain base station apparatus, among the cells of the base station apparatus, the cell set to be used for communication with the terminal apparatus is the serving cell, and for other communications. Cells not used are referred to as neighboring cells.

In other words, in the CA, multiple serving cells configured are one PCell.
And one or more SCells.

  PCell is a serving cell for which an initial connection establishment procedure (RRC Connection establishment procedure) has been performed, a serving cell for which a connection reestablishment procedure (RRC Connection reestablishment procedure) has been started, or a cell designated as PCell in a handover procedure. PCell operates on the primary frequency. The SCell may be configured when or after the connection is (re) established. SCell operates on the secondary frequency. The connection may be referred to as an RRC connection. For a terminal device supporting a CA, one PCell and one or more SCells may be aggregated.

  In the terminal device, if at least one serving cell is configured or a secondary cell group is configured, transport block codes for at least a predetermined number of transport blocks for each serving cell. In response to the block decoding failure, the received soft channel bits corresponding to at least a predetermined range are held.

  The LAA terminal may support features corresponding to more than one radio access technology (RAT).

  The LAA terminal supports two or more operating bands. That is, the LAA terminal supports functions related to the CA.

Also, the LAA terminal may support TDD (Time Division Duplex) or HD-FDD (Half Duplex Frequency Division Duplex). Also, LAA terminals are FD-FD
D (Full Duplex FDD) may be supported. The LAA terminal may indicate which duplex mode / frame structure type it supports via higher layer signaling such as capability information.

  Also, the LAA terminal may be an LTE terminal of category X (X is a predetermined value). That is, the LAA terminal may extend the maximum number of bits of transport blocks that can be transmitted / received in one TTI. In LTE, one TTI corresponds to one subframe.

  In each embodiment of the present invention, TTI and subframes may be defined separately.

  Also, the LAA terminal may support multiple duplex mode / frame structure types.

  Frame structure type 1 is applicable to both FD-FDD and HD-FDD. In FDD, 10 subframes can be used for each of downlink transmission and uplink transmission at intervals of 10 ms. Also, uplink transmission and downlink transmission are divided in the frequency domain. In the HD-FDD operation, the terminal device can not simultaneously transmit and receive, but in the FD-FDD operation, there is no limitation.

  The re-tuning time (the time required for tuning (the number of subframes or the number of symbols)) when the frequency hopping or the used frequency is changed may be set by higher layer signaling.

For example, in the LAA terminal, the number of supported downlink transmission modes (PDSCH transmission modes) may be reduced. That is, when the number of downlink transmission modes or the downlink transmission mode supported by the LAA terminal is indicated as the capability information from the LAA terminal, the base station apparatus is based on the capability information, Set downlink transmission mode. When a parameter for a downlink transmission mode not supported by itself is set, the LAA terminal may ignore that setting. That is, the LAA terminal may not perform processing for the unsupported downlink transmission mode. Here, the downlink transmission mode is used to indicate the transmission scheme of PDSCH corresponding to PDCCH / EPDCCH based on the set downlink transmission mode, type of RNTI, DCI format, and search space. Based on the information, the terminal apparatus can know whether PDSCH is transmitted on antenna port 0, transmitted in transmit diversity, or transmitted on a plurality of antenna ports. The terminal device can appropriately perform reception processing based on the information. Even if the DCI related to PDSCH resource allocation is detected from the same type of DCI format, if the downlink transmission mode and the type of RNTI are different, the PDSCH is not necessarily transmitted in the same transmission scheme.

  When the terminal supports the function related to simultaneous transmission of PUCCH and PUSCH, and supports the function related to repeated transmission of PUSCH and / or repeated transmission of PUCCH, the timing at which transmission of PUSCH occurs Alternatively, the PUCCH and the PUSCH may be repeatedly transmitted a predetermined number of times at the timing when the transmission of the PUCCH occurs. That is, simultaneous transmission of PUCCH and PUSCH may be performed at the same timing (that is, the same subframe).

  In such a case, the PUCCH may include a CSI report, HARQ-ACK, or SR.

  Although all signals can be transmitted and received in PCell, there may be signals that can not be transmitted and received in SCell. For example, PUCCH is transmitted only on PCell. In addition, PRACH is transmitted only on the PCell unless multiple TAGs (Timing Advance Groups) are set between cells. Moreover, PBCH is transmitted only by PCell. Also, the MIB is transmitted only on the PCell. However, when the terminal apparatus supports the function of transmitting PUCCH and MIB in SCell, the base station apparatus transmits PUCCH and MIB to the terminal apparatus in SCell (frequency corresponding to SCell). You may instruct to do. That is, when the terminal apparatus supports the function, the base station apparatus may set, for the terminal apparatus, parameters for transmitting PUCCH or MIB by SCell.

First, the flow of transmission and reception of downlink data will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. In base station apparatus 2, control section 502 performs modulation and coding scheme (MCS) indicating modulation scheme and coding rate in downlink, downlink resource allocation indicating RB used for data transmission, and information used for control of HARQ ( A redundancy version, an HARQ process number, and an NDI (New Data Indicator) are held, and based on these, the codeword generation unit 503 and the downlink subframe generation unit 504 are controlled. The downlink data (also referred to as downlink transport block, DL-SCH data, or DL-SCH transport block) sent from the upper layer 501 is controlled by the codeword generation unit 503 under the control of the control unit 502, Processing such as error correction coding and rate matching processing is performed to generate a codeword. Up to two codewords are simultaneously transmitted in one subframe in one cell. The downlink subframe generation unit 504 generates a downlink subframe according to an instruction from the control unit 502. First, a codeword generated by the codeword generation unit 503 is converted into a modulation symbol sequence by modulation processing such as PSK (Phase Shift Keying) modulation or QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) modulation. Also, modulation symbol sequences are mapped to REs in some RBs, and downlink subframes for each antenna port are generated by precoding processing. At this time, the transmission data sequence transmitted from the upper layer 501 includes upper layer control information which is control information (for example, dedicated (individual) RRC (Radio Resource Control) signaling) in the upper layer. Also, the downlink reference signal generation unit 505 generates a downlink reference signal. The downlink subframe generation unit 504 maps the downlink reference signal to the REs in the downlink subframe according to an instruction of the control unit 502. The downlink subframe generated by the downlink subframe generation unit 504 is modulated into an OFDM signal in the OFDM signal transmission unit 506 and transmitted via the transmission antenna 507. In addition, although the structure which has an OFDM signal transmission part 506 and one transmission antenna 507 is illustrated here, when transmitting a downlink sub-frame using a several antenna port, the OFDM signal transmission part 506 and transmission are shown. A plurality of antennas 507 may be provided. Also, the downlink subframe generation unit 504 is capable of generating a downlink control channel of a physical layer such as a control channel / shared channel corresponding to PDCCH, EPDCCH, PDCCH, or EPDCCH and mapping it to RE in the downlink subframe. You can also have The plurality of base station apparatuses transmit their respective downlink subframes.

  In the terminal device 1, the OFDM signal is received by the OFDM signal receiving unit 602 through the receiving antenna 601, and OFDM demodulation processing is performed.

The downlink subframe processing unit 603 first detects a downlink control channel in the physical layer, such as a control channel corresponding to PDCCH, EPDCCH, PDCCH, or EPDCCH. More specifically, downlink subframe processing section 603 transmits a control channel corresponding to PDCCH or EPDCCH or PDCCH or EPDCCH in a region to which a control channel / shared channel corresponding to PDCCH or EPDCCH or PDCCH or EPDCCH is allocated. It is decoded as a random number, and a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) bit added in advance is confirmed (blind decoding). That is, the downlink subframe processing unit 603 monitors a control channel / shared channel corresponding to the PDCCH, the EPDCCH, the PDCCH, or the EPDCCH. ID (C-RNTI (Cell-Radio Network Temporary Identifier)) to which a CRC bit has been previously assigned from the base station apparatus
Downlink subframe processing when it matches with a UE-specific identifier (UEID) assigned to one terminal, such as SPS-C-RNTI (Semi-Persistent Scheduling-C-RNTI), or Temporarily C-RNTI. The section 603 is a PDCCH or E
Recognizes that the control channel / shared channel corresponding to PDCCH or PDCCH or EPDCCH has been detected, and corresponds to PDSCH or PDSCH using control information included in the detected PDCCH or EPDCCH or control channel corresponding to PDCCH or EPDCCH Fetch data channel / shared channel.

  Control section 606 holds MCS indicating a modulation scheme and coding rate in downlink based on control information, downlink resource assignment indicating RB used for downlink data transmission, and information used for control of HARQ, and based on these, It controls the downlink subframe processing unit 603, the transport block extraction unit 605, and the like. More specifically, the control unit 606 controls to perform RE demapping processing, demodulation processing, and the like corresponding to RE mapping processing and modulation processing in the downlink subframe generation unit 504. The PDSCH extracted from the received downlink subframe is sent to the transport block extraction unit 605. Also, the downlink reference signal extraction unit 604 in the downlink subframe processing unit 603 extracts the DLRS from the downlink subframe.

  The transport block extraction unit 605 performs rate matching processing in the codeword generation unit 503, rate matching processing corresponding to error correction coding, error correction decoding, etc., extracts the transport block, and sends it to the upper layer 607. Be The transport block includes upper layer control information, and the upper layer 607 informs the control unit 606 of necessary physical layer parameters based on the upper layer control information. Note that the plurality of base station devices 2 transmit their respective downlink subframes, and the terminal device 1 receives these, so the above-described processing is performed on the downlink subframes for each of the plurality of base station devices 2. Alternatively, each may be performed. At this time, the terminal device 1 may or may not recognize that the plurality of downlink subframes are transmitted from the plurality of base station devices 2. If not recognized, the terminal device 1 may simply recognize that a plurality of downlink subframes are transmitted in a plurality of cells. Also, the transport block extraction unit 605 determines whether or not the transport block has been correctly detected, and the determination result is sent to the control unit 606.

  Here, the transport block extraction unit 605 may include a buffer unit (soft buffer unit). In the buffer unit, information of the extracted transport block can be temporarily stored. For example, when the transport block extraction unit 605 receives the same transport block (a retransmitted transport block), it is temporarily stored in the buffer unit if decoding of data for the transport block is not successful. The stored data for this transport block and the newly received data are combined (combined) and an attempt is made to decode the combined data. The buffer unit flushes the temporarily stored data when it is no longer needed or when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The conditions of data to be flashed differ depending on the type of transport block corresponding to the data. The buffer unit may be prepared for each type of data. For example, a message 3 buffer or a HARQ buffer may be prepared as a buffer unit, or may be prepared for each layer such as L1 / L2 / L3. Note that flushing information / data includes flushing a buffer in which information or data is stored.

Next, the flow of transmission and reception of uplink signals will be described. In the terminal device 1, under the instruction of the control unit 606, the downlink reference signal extracted by the downlink reference signal extraction unit 604 is sent to the channel condition measurement unit 608, and the channel condition measurement unit 608 causes channel condition and / or interference. Is measured, and CSI is calculated based on the measured channel conditions and / or interference. In addition, the control unit 606 causes the uplink control information generation unit 610 to perform HARQ-ACK (DTX (not transmitted), ACK (detection success)) or NACK (on success) based on the determination result as to whether or not the transport block has been detected correctly. Instructs generation of detection failure) and mapping to downlink subframes. The terminal device 1 performs these processes on downlink subframes for each of a plurality of cells. In uplink control information generation section 610, a control channel / shared channel corresponding to PUCCH or PUCCH including calculated CSI and / or HARQ-ACK is generated. In uplink subframe generation section 609, a data channel / shared channel corresponding to PUSCH or PUSCH including uplink data sent from upper layer 607, and a PUCCH or control channel generated in uplink control information generation section 610 are used. The uplink subframes are generated by mapping to RBs in the uplink subframes.

  The SC-FDMA signal is received by the SC-FDMA signal reception unit 509 via the reception antenna 508, and SC-FDMA demodulation processing is performed. Uplink subframe processing section 510 extracts RBs to which PUCCHs are mapped in accordance with an instruction from control section 502, and uplink control information extraction section 511 extracts CSI contained in PUCCH. The extracted CSI is sent to the control unit 502. The CSI is used to control downlink transmission parameters (MCS, downlink resource allocation, HARQ, etc.) by the control unit 502. The SC-FDMA signal receiving unit may be an OFDM signal receiving unit. Also, the SC-FDMA signal receiving unit may include an OFDM signal receiving unit.

The base station apparatus assumes the maximum output power _PCMAX set by the terminal from the power headroom report, and assumes the upper limit value of the power for each physical uplink channel based on the physical uplink channel received from the terminal Do. A base station apparatus determines the value of the transmission power control command with respect to a physical uplink channel based on those assumption, and transmits to a terminal device using PDCCH accompanied by a downlink control information format. By doing so, power adjustment of the transmission power of the physical uplink channel / signal (or uplink physical channel / physical signal) transmitted from the terminal device is performed.

  When transmitting a PDCCH (EPDCCH) / PDSCH (or a shared channel / control channel of an LR cell corresponding to these) to the terminal apparatus, the base station apparatus assigns it to a resource of PBCH (or a broadcast channel corresponding to PBCH) Resource allocation of PDCCH / PDSCH is performed so as not to occur.

  The PDSCH may be used to transmit messages / information regarding SIB / RAR / paging / unicast to the terminal.

  Frequency hopping for the PUSCH may be individually configured according to the type of grant. For example, values of parameters used for PUSCH frequency hopping corresponding to each of a dynamic schedule grant, a semi-persistent grant, and an RAR grant may be set individually. Those parameters may not be indicated in the uplink grant. Also, those parameters may be configured via higher layer signaling including system information.

Also, the parameters described above may be set commonly between the terminal devices. Here, the various parameters described above may be set using system information.

The various parameters described above may be set as broadcast information. Also, the various parameters described above may be set as unicast information.

In the embodiment described above, the power value required for each PUSCH transmission is a parameter set by the upper layer, an adjustment value determined by the number of PRBs assigned to that PUSCH transmission by resource assignment, downlink path loss, and It has been described that the coefficient is calculated based on the coefficient to be multiplied, the adjustment value determined by the parameter indicating the MCS offset applied to UCI, the correction value obtained by the TPC command, and the like. In addition, the power value required for each PUCCH transmission is used for transmission of the parameter set by the upper layer, downlink path loss, adjustment value determined by UCI transmitted by the PUCCH, adjustment value determined by PUCCH format, and PUCCH It has been described that the adjustment value determined by the number of antenna ports to be calculated, the value based on the TPC command, etc. However, it is not limited to this. An upper limit is provided for the required power value, and a minimum value between the value based on the above parameters and the upper limit (for example, P _{CMAX, c} which is the maximum output power value in the serving cell _c ) is required power It can also be used as a value.
