In this case, it is possible to determine the FH to be applied depending on the desired advantage.
  • Intra-slot FH and inter-slot FH each have the advantages as shown below. Intra-slot FH: Excellent user-multiplexing performance in a cell that includes a mixture of UEs that perform PUCCH repetitive transmission and UEs that do not perform PUCCH repetitive transmission. Inter-slot FH: Excellent direction performance when channel estimation performance is good.

  • Example 2 Set/indicated by a UE-specific method (e.g., Msg2 (RAR), Msg4-scheduling DCI).
  • the setting/instruction may be performed for each repetition factor.
  • the absence of a setting/instruction may mean the application of intra-slot FH or the application of inter-slot FH.
  • Effect of Condition 1 The network (gNB100) can determine the type of FH to apply depending on the network (gNB100) preferences.
  • Condition 2 Terminal capability information (implementation of UE 200)
  • the UE 200 may report the type of FH to be applied to the network (gNB 100) via PRACH or Msg3 as follows. -Which to apply, intra-slot FH or inter-slot FH? -Whether intra-slot FH is supported? -Whether inter-slot FH is supported? If repeated transmission of PUCCH for Msg4 is supported, it may be assumed that support for intra-slot FH is mandatory, or that support for inter-slot FH is mandatory. Effect of condition 2: UE 200 does not need to support both types of FH.
  • Condition 3 Combination of Condition 1 and Condition 2 For example, if the network (gNB100) sets inter-slot FH as the type of FH to be applied, but UE200 does not support inter-slot FH, UE200 reports incapable for repeated transmission of PUCCH or reports that repeated transmission of PUCCH is not recommended.
  • Condition 4 UE behavior before scheduling Msg4 PDSCH
  • Example 1 The type of FH applied is determined according to whether or not repeated transmission of Msg3 is applied.
  • Example 2 The type of FH applied is set to the same as the type of FH applied to the repeated transmission of Msg3.
  • the type of FH to be applied may be determined based on whether or not repeated transmission of Msg1 (PRACH) is applicable instead of Msg3.
  • Advantage of condition 4 The same mechanism as for the repeated transmission of Msg3 can be applied, making implementation easy.
  • Condition 5 repetition factor When the number of slots for repeat transmission is 1 (no repeat transmission), intra-slot FH is applied. When there are multiple slots for repeated transmission (repeated transmission), inter-slot FH is applied.

Abstract

Ce terminal comprend : une unité de transmission qui, dans une procédure d'accès aléatoire, adopte un saut de fréquence pour une transmission de répétition d'un canal de commande de liaison montante physique en réponse à un message de résolution de contention; et une unité de commande qui détermine le type du saut de fréquence comme étant soit un saut de fréquence en créneau soit un saut de fréquence inter-créneaux.
