Therefore, one physical resource block is composed of (7 × 12) resource elements. One physical resource block corresponds to one slot in the time domain and corresponds to 180 kHz in the frequency domain. Physical resource blocks are numbered from 0 in the frequency domain.

FIG. 14 is a diagram showing a relationship between three parameters indicating special subframe settings in the present embodiment. The setting in FIG. 14 means a special subframe setting. In FIG. 14, three parameters indicating special subframe settings correspond to the same serving cell.

(Case 1) The base station apparatus 3 changes to the special subframe setting 7 only when the downlink CP setting is an extended CP and the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) is set to a value corresponding to the special subframe setting 4. The parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130 set to the corresponding value may be signaled.

(Case 2) The base station apparatus 3 sets the special subframe setting 8 only when the downlink CP setting is an extended CP and the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) is set to a value corresponding to the special subframe setting 4. You may signal the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx set to the corresponding value. Here, the base station apparatus 3 does not signal the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130.

(Case 3) The base station device 3 sets the downlink CP setting to the extended CP, sets the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) to a value corresponding to the special subframe setting 4, and sets the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130 to the special Only when the value corresponding to the subframe setting 7 is set, the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx set to the value corresponding to the special subframe setting 9 may be signaled.

(Case 4) The base station apparatus 3 sets the special subframe setting 9 only when the downlink CP setting is a normal CP and the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) is set to a value corresponding to the special subframe setting 5. The parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130 set to the corresponding value may be signaled.

(Case 5) The base station apparatus 3 sets the special subframe setting 10 only when the downlink CP setting is a normal CP and the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) is set to a value corresponding to the special subframe setting 5. You may signal the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx set to the corresponding value. Here, the base station apparatus 3 does not signal the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130.

If the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130 exists, the terminal device 1 may ignore the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix). When the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx exists, the terminal device 1 may ignore the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130. Since the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx is dedicated control information between the base station apparatus 3 and the terminal apparatus 1, the base station apparatus 3 uses a parameter specialSubframePatterns-v1130 or a parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx in any serving cell. It is possible to control for each terminal device 1 whether to follow the above.

The capability information UECapabilityInformation transmitted in step S1304 may indicate some or all of the following. The capability information UECapabilityInformation may include one or more information / parameters that indicate some or all of the following:
(I) Combination of bands in which terminal device 1 supports carrier aggregation (ii) Whether terminal device 1 supports different UL-DL configurations in different TDD serving cells (component carriers) aggregated in different bands (iii) ) Whether the terminal device 1 supports simultaneous transmission / reception in different TDD serving cells (component carriers) aggregated in different bands (iv) When the terminal device 1 aggregates different serving cells belonging to different bands, Whether or not it is assumed that guard periods of special subframes in the different serving cells belonging to different bands have at least a predetermined number of seconds (for example, 1456 · T _s ) (v) the terminal device 1 is 3, or More than 3 Whether to support the special sub-frame set corresponding to the UpPTS, including Bol

For example, special subframe settings corresponding to UpPTS including three or more symbols include special subframe settings {10, 11} for normal CP in the downlink and special subframe settings for extended CP in the downlink. {8, 9}.

A part or all of the above (ii) to (iv) may be shown for each combination of bands indicated by (i). Part or all of the above (ii) to (iv) may not be related to the combination of bands indicated by (i).

By indicating one or more of (i) to (v), the other one of (i) to (v) may be indicated. For example, “terminal device 1 supports special subframe configuration corresponding to UpPTS including three or more symbols” indicates that “terminal device 1 has different serving cells belonging to different bands. Even when aggregated, the guard period of the special subframe in the different serving cell belonging to the different band should not be assumed to have at least a predetermined number of seconds (for example, 1456 · T _s ). Good.

When different serving cells belonging to different bands are aggregated, it is assumed that guard periods of special subframes in the different serving cells belonging to the different bands have at least a predetermined number of seconds (eg, 1456 · T _s ) overlap. The terminal device 1 switches between downlink reception processing and uplink transmission processing during the overlapping guard periods.

When different serving cells belonging to different bands are aggregated, it is not assumed that the guard periods of the special subframes in the different serving cells belonging to the different bands have at least a predetermined number of seconds (eg, 1456 · T _s ) overlap. The terminal device 1 may support simultaneous transmission / reception in different TDD serving cells (component carriers) aggregated in different bands, and may switch between downlink reception processing and uplink transmission processing for each band. .

Regardless of (iii), the terminal device 1 may not support simultaneous transmission and reception in different TDD serving cells (component carriers) aggregated in the same band. When the different serving cells belonging to the same band are aggregated regardless of (iv), the terminal device 1 determines that the GPs of the special subframes in the different serving cells belonging to the same band have at least a predetermined number of seconds of overlap. It may be assumed.

FIG. 15 and FIG. 16 are diagrams illustrating an example of special subframe settings for a plurality of TDD serving cells that are aggregated in the present embodiment. 15 and 16, the horizontal axis is a time axis, and the vertical axis is a frequency axis. 15 and 16, TDD serving cell 1500 and TDD serving cell 1502 are included in band A, and TDD serving cell 1504 and TDD serving cell 1506 are included in band B.

In FIG. 15, the special subframe setting for the TDD serving cell 1500 is 6, the special subframe setting for the TDD serving cell 1502 is 3, the special subframe setting for the TDD serving cell 1504 is 5, and the special subframe for the TDD serving cell 1506 The setting is 5.

In FIG. 16, the special subframe setting for the TDD serving cell 1500 is 6, the special subframe setting for the TDD serving cell 1502 is 3, the special subframe setting for the TDD serving cell 1504 is 10, and the special subframe for the TDD serving cell 1506 The setting is 10.

That is, in FIG. 15 and FIG. 16, the base station apparatus 3 uses the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) indicating the special subframe setting 6 for the TDD serving cell 1500 and the parameter specialSubframePatterns (without without) for the TDD serving cell 1502. suffix), a parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) indicating the special subframe setting 5 for the TDD serving cell 1504, and a parameter specialSubframePatterns (without suffix) indicating the special subframe setting 5 for the TDD serving cell 1506 are broadcast. In FIG. 15, the base station device 3 does not transmit the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx for the TDD serving cells 1500, 1502, 1504, 1506 to the terminal device 1. On the other hand, in FIG. 16, the base station device 3 transmits a parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx indicating the special subframe setting 10 for each of the TDD serving cells 1504 and 1506 to the terminal device 1.

In FIG. 15, the GPs of special subframes in TDD serving cells 1500 and 1502 belonging to band A overlap by 2192 · T _s . In FIG. 15, GPs of special subframes in TDD serving cells 1504 and 1506 belonging to band B overlap by 19744 · T _s . In FIG. 15, the GPs of special subframes in TDD serving cells 1500, 1502, 1504, and 1506 belonging to band A or band B overlap by 2192 · T _s . In Figure 15, GP special subframe in TDD a serving cell to be aggregated in different bands with duplicate of at least 1456 · T _s. Accordingly, in the special subframe configuration shown in FIG. 15, when different serving cells belonging to different bands are aggregated, the guard period of the special subframe in the different serving cells belonging to the different bands is at least a predetermined number of seconds (for example, 1456 · T _s ) is appropriate for the terminal device 1 that is assumed to have an overlap.

In FIG. 16, the GPs of special subframes in TDD serving cells 1500 and 1502 belonging to band A overlap 2192 · T _s . In FIG. 16, the GPs of special subframes in TDD serving cells 1504 and 1506 belonging to band B overlap by 2192 · T _s . In FIG. 16, the GPs of special subframes in TDD serving cells 1500, 1502, 1504, and 1506 belonging to band A or band B do not overlap. In Figure 16, GP special subframe in TDD a serving cell to be aggregated in different bands are the same as 1456 · T _s, or no greater than duplicate 1456 · T _s. Accordingly, in the special subframe configuration shown in FIG. 16, when different serving cells belonging to different bands are aggregated, the guard period of the special subframe in the different serving cells belonging to the different bands is at least a predetermined number of seconds (for example, 1456 · T _s ) is inappropriate for the terminal device 1 that is assumed to have duplication.

When different serving cells belonging to different bands are aggregated in step S1304, the base station apparatus 3 sets the guard period of the special subframe in the different serving cells belonging to the different bands to at least a predetermined number of seconds (for example, 1456 · T _s ) When the capability information UECapabilityInformation indicating that it is assumed that there is duplication is received from the terminal device 1, the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx indicating the special subframe setting 10 for each of the TDD serving cells 1504 and 1506 in the terminal device 1 May not be transmitted to the terminal device 1. That is, the base station apparatus 3 may notify the terminal apparatus 1 of the special subframe setting shown in FIG.

When different serving cells belonging to different bands are aggregated in step S1304, the base station apparatus 3 sets the guard period of the special subframe in the different serving cells belonging to the different bands to at least a predetermined number of seconds (for example, 1456 · T _s ) When the capability information UECapabilityInformation indicating that no overlap is assumed is received from the terminal device 1, the parameter specialSubframePatterns-v13xx indicating the special subframe setting 10 for each of the TDD serving cells 1504 and 1506 in the terminal device 1 May be transmitted to the terminal device 1. That is, the base station apparatus may notify the terminal apparatus 1 of the special subframe setting shown in FIG.

As described above, by controlling the special subframe setting for each terminal device 1 according to the capability of the terminal device 1, the guard period resource can be used efficiently.

Hereinafter, SRS will be described.

The SRS sequence r _SRS (k) is multiplied by an amplitude scaling factor β _SRS to match the transmission power calculated for the SRS transmission, and is mapped to the resource element (k, l) according to equation (3). The

Where N _ap is the number of antenna ports used for SRS transmission, k _start is the frequency domain starting position defined by equation (4), and M ^RS _{sc, b} is according to equation (5). It is the length of the defined SRS sequence.

Here, k _TC ε {0,1} is given based at least on the parameters received from the base station apparatus 3. Here, the parameter / variable m _{SRS, b} used for calculating the length of the SRS sequence is given by at least referring to the uplink bandwidth setting N ^UL _RB and the UE specific parameter srs-Bandwidth. FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating an example of values of the parameter m _{SRS, b (b = 0)} in the present embodiment. The parameter m _{SRS, b} is based on the SRS bandwidth setting c, the UE specific parameter srs-Bandwidth, and the uplink bandwidth setting N ^UL _RB . C _SRS is a set of SRS bandwidth settings {0,1, ..., 7}. The UE specific parameter srs-Bandwidth indicates one value from B _SRS ε {0,1,2,3}. In the present embodiment, the UE specific parameter srs-Bandwidth indicates “0”. In this embodiment, b = B _SRS = 0. The terminal device 1 receives information indicating the UE specific parameter srs-Bandwidth from the base station device 3.

In FIG. 17, when the SRS transmission bandwidth c is “2” and the value of the uplink transmission bandwidth N ^UL _RB is “100”, the value of the parameter m _{SRS, 0} is “80”. In this embodiment, the method for selecting the SRS transmission bandwidth c / parameter m _{SRS, 0} for the uplink subframe is different from the method for selecting the SRS transmission bandwidth c / parameter m _{SRS, 0} for UpPTS. In this embodiment, a method for selecting the SRS transmission bandwidth c / parameter m _{SRS, 0} for the first SC-FDMA symbol in UpPTS and the SRS transmission bandwidth c / parameter m for the second SC-FDMA symbol in UpPTS The selection method of _{SRS, 0} is different.

The parameter m _{SRS, 0} for the SRS transmitted in the last SC-FDMA symbol in the uplink subframe refers to the SRS transmission bandwidth setting c indicated by the cell specific parameter srs-BandwidthConfig received from the base station apparatus 3 Given by. For example, if the cell specific parameter srs-BandwidthConfig indicates SRS transmission bandwidth setting 2 and B _SRS = 0 and N ^UL _RB = 100, transmission is performed in the last SC-FDMA symbol in the uplink subframe. The parameter m _{SRS, 0} for the SRS to be performed is “80”.

FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating an example of the SRS transmitted in the uplink subframe in the present embodiment. In FIG. 18, the SRS sequence is mapped to a resource element near the center of the uplink subframe of the serving cell in the frequency domain. In the frequency domain, PUCCH and PRACH are transmitted from a plurality of terminal apparatuses at the upper end and the lower end of the uplink subframe of the serving cell. The base station apparatus 3 controls the SRS transmission bandwidth setting c indicated by the cell specific parameter srs-BandwidthConfig so that the PUCCH / PRACH and the SRS do not collide.

FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating an example of SRS transmitted in UpPTS when m _{SRS, 0} reconfiguration in the present embodiment is enabled.

For UpPTS, when m _{SRS, 0} resetting is enabled by the cell specific parameter srsMaxUpPts given by the upper layer, m _{SRS, 0} is reset based on Equation (6). The resetting of m _{SRS, 0} can be applied when b = B _SRS = 0. m Re-setting of _{SRS, 0} does not apply when B _SRS is not 0. The terminal device 1 receives information indicating the cell specific parameter srsMaxUpPts from the base station device 3.

Here, the function max outputs the largest m ^c _{SRS, 0} that does not exceed the predetermined value X among the plurality of m ^c _{SRS, 0} in parentheses {·}. m ^c _{SRS, 0} is a candidate for m _{SRS, 0} corresponding to each uplink bandwidth setting N ^UL _RB . For example, in FIG. 17, when the uplink bandwidth setting N ^UL _RB is “100”, a plurality of m ^c _{SRS, 0} are m _{SRS, 0} candidates {48,60 listed in the rightmost column. , 64, 72, 80, 96}. Here, for example, when the predetermined value X is “90”, m ^max _{SRS, 0} is “80”.

Here, the predetermined value X is given by Equation (7) or Equation (8).

Here, N _RA is the number of formats 4PRACH (resource) in UpPTS, it depends on the setting of the PRACH. The SC-FDMA symbol corresponding to Equation (7) is also referred to as a first symbol. The SC-FDMA symbol corresponding to Equation (8) is also referred to as a second symbol.

Whether the predetermined value X is given by Equation (7) or Equation (8) depends at least on the slot number / index n _s in the radio frame and / or the SC-FDMA symbol number / index l in the slot. It may be determined based on. For example, Equation (7) may be applied to the SRS transmitted in the SC-FDMA symbol in the slot satisfying n _s mod 2 = 0. For example, in the slot that satisfies _{n s mod 2 = 1, l} = N UL symb -Y or l <N ^UL _symb -Y formula against SRS transmitted in the SC-FDMA symbols satisfying (7) is applied Also good. For example, Equation (8) may be applied to SRS transmitted in an SC-FDMA symbol satisfying l> N ^UL _symb -Y in a slot satisfying n _s mod 2 = 1.

It is preferable to determine the value of Y so that format 4 PRACH and SRS do not overlap / collision in the frequency domain. For SC-FDMA symbols that do not overlap with format 4 PRACH in the time domain, a value of Y may be given based on Equation (7). For the SC-FDMA symbol that overlaps with format 4 PRACH in the time domain, a value of Y may be given based on Equation (8). Format 4 PRACH and UpPTS overlap during the period of (4382-N _TA ) · T _s . Here, N _TA is a timing offset between the uplink and downlink radio frames in the terminal device 1 calculated by the terminal device 1 based on a TA (Timing Advance) command received from the base station device 3. .

FIG. 20 is a diagram illustrating uplink transmission timing in the present embodiment. In the terminal device 1, the uplink radio frame (SRS) transmission timing is advanced (N _{TA +} N _TAoffset ) · T _s seconds from the downlink radio frame reception timing. Here, N _TAoffset is a fixed timing advance offset, which is “624” for TDD and “0” for FDD. Transmission of the format 4 PRACH starts 4438 · T _s before the end of the UpPTS based on the uplink radio frame transmission timing assuming N _TA = 0 in the terminal device 1. Therefore, format 4 PRACH and UpPTS overlap during the period of (4382-N _TA ) · T _s .

However, because the terminal device 1 cannot correctly receive the TA command transmitted by the base station device 3, the base station device 3 cannot grasp the accurate _NTA value in the terminal device 1. The value of N _TA is controlled for each terminal apparatus 1.

Therefore, Equation (7) may be applied to the UpPTS based on the uplink radio frame transmission timing assuming N _TA = 0 in the terminal device 1 and the period in which the format 4 PRACH does not overlap. Further, Equation (8) may be applied to the UpPTS based on the uplink radio frame transmission timing assuming N _TA = 0 in the terminal device 1 and the period in which the format 4 PRACH overlaps.

That is, the first symbol may be an SC-FDMA symbol that does not overlap with format 4 PRACH in UpPTS based on uplink radio frame transmission timing assuming N _TA = 0 in terminal apparatus 1. Further, the second symbol may be an SC-FDMA symbol overlapping with format 4 PRACH in UpPTS based on uplink radio frame transmission timing assuming N _TA = 0 in terminal apparatus 1.

Equation (7) is applied to the UpPTS based on the uplink radio frame transmission timing assuming N _TA = 0 in the terminal device 1 and a period in which the format 4 PRACH does not overlap, and N _TA = 0 in the terminal device 1 Y may be defined so that Equation (8) is applied to the UpPTS based on the uplink radio frame transmission timing and the period in which the format 4 PRACH overlaps.

Since the length of the SC-FDMA symbol is based on the uplink CP setting, the value of Y may be given according to the uplink CP setting. FIG. 21 is a diagram illustrating a relationship between uplink CPs and Y in the present embodiment. In FIG. 21, Y is “3” for the normal CP in the uplink and Y is “2” for the extended CP in the uplink.

FIG. 22 is a diagram illustrating an example of SRS transmitted in the UpPTS when m _{SRS, 0} resetting in the present embodiment is disabled. If resetting of m _{SRS, 0} is disabled _(disabled), m maxSRS, ₀ is given by Equation (9). That is, _when the reconfiguration of m _{SRS, 0} is disabled _, the value of m _{SRS, 0} for UpPTS is the same as the value of m _{SRS, 0} for the uplink subframe.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described.

As illustrated, the terminal device 1 includes a wireless transmission / reception unit 10 and an upper layer processing unit 14.
