- TTI that is shorter than the normal TTI may be referred to as an abbreviated TTI, short TTI, partial or fractional TTI, shortened subframe, short subframe, minislot, subslot, slot, etc.
- long TTI for example, normal TTI, subframe, etc.
- short TTI for example, short TTI, etc. It may also be read as a TTI having the above TTI length.
- a resource block is a resource allocation unit in the time domain and frequency domain, and may include one or more continuous subcarriers in the frequency domain.
- the number of subcarriers included in an RB may be the same regardless of the numerology, and may be 12, for example.
- the number of subcarriers included in an RB may be determined based on newerology.
- the time domain of an RB may include one or more symbols, and may be one slot, one minislot, one subframe, or one TTI in length.
- One TTI, one subframe, etc. may each be composed of one or more resource blocks.
- one or more RBs include physical resource blocks (PRBs), sub-carrier groups (SCGs), resource element groups (REGs), PRB pairs, RB pairs, etc. May be called.
- PRBs physical resource blocks
- SCGs sub-carrier groups
- REGs resource element groups
- PRB pairs RB pairs, etc. May be called.
- a resource block may be configured by one or more resource elements (REs).
- REs resource elements
- 1 RE may be a radio resource region of 1 subcarrier and 1 symbol.
- a bandwidth part (which may also be called a partial bandwidth or the like) may represent a subset of consecutive common resource blocks (RBs) for a certain numerology in a certain carrier.
- the common RB may be specified by an RB index based on a common reference point of the carrier.
- PRBs may be defined in a BWP and numbered within that BWP.
- the BWP may include a UL BWP (UL BWP) and a DL BWP (DL BWP).
- UL BWP UL BWP
- DL BWP DL BWP
- One or more BWPs may be configured for the terminal 20 within one carrier.
- At least one of the configured BWPs may be active, and the terminal 20 does not need to assume that it transmits or receives a given signal/channel outside the active BWP.
- Note that "cell”, “carrier”, etc. in the present disclosure may be replaced with "BWP”.
- radio frames, subframes, slots, minislots, symbols, etc. described above are merely examples.
- the number of subframes included in a radio frame, the number of slots per subframe or radio frame, the number of minislots included in a slot, the number of symbols and RBs included in a slot or minislot, the number of symbols included in an RB, Configurations such as the number of subcarriers, the number of symbols in a TTI, the symbol length, and the cyclic prefix (CP) length can be changed in various ways.
- a and B are different may mean “A and B are different from each other.” Note that the term may also mean that "A and B are each different from C”. Terms such as “separate” and “coupled” may also be interpreted similarly to “different.”
- notification of prescribed information is not limited to being done explicitly, but may also be done implicitly (for example, not notifying the prescribed information). Good too.

Abstract
Selon la présente invention, un nœud réseau comprend : une unité de réception qui reçoit un signal demandant un enregistrement initial à partir d'un terminal, et un identifiant du terminal ; et une unité de commande qui stocke les informations reçues indiquant l'état de progression de l'enregistrement initial en association avec l'identifiant, et continue la progression de l'enregistrement initial, sur la base des informations stockées indiquant l'état de progression, en réponse à la demande d'enregistrement initiale envoyée par le terminal identifié par l'identifiant.
