  • Publication number: 20180367260
    Abstract: Provided is a method and apparatus for controlling soft buffer for TDD-FDD carrier aggregation. The method includes: establishing a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection with a base station through a first serving cell, the first serving cell supporting a Time Division Duplex (TDD) mode; receiving an RRC message from the base station through the first serving cell, the RRC message comprising carrier aggregation (CA) configuration information, the CA configuration information comprising information of a second serving cell supporting a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) mode; determining a maximum number of DL HARQ processes for the second serving cell, the maximum number of DL HARQ processes for the second serving cell being differently determined according to a DL reference timing; and storing soft channel bits for a received transport block (TB) based on the determined maximum number of DL HARQ processes for the second serving cell.

  • Publication number: 20180302945
    Abstract: Provided is an apparatus and method for performing activation/deactivation of a serving cell in a wireless communication system supporting dual connectivity. The method for performing activation/deactivation of serving cell by a user equipment in a wireless communication system includes configuring a dual connectivity with at least two different base stations based on dual connectivity configuration information received through RRC (Radio Resource Control) message from a base station, receiving activation/deactivation information about secondary serving cell configured for the UE from each of two different base stations, and selectively applying the activation/deactivation information about the secondary serving cell configured for the UE based on information including the secondary serving cell provided by the base station or information about the base station providing the secondary serving cell configured for the UE.

  • Publication number: 20180115404
    Abstract: Provided is a method and apparatus for transmitting an HARQ ACK/NACK. The method includes: recognizing, from a PDCCH or an EPDCCH, a 2-bit uplink (UL) downlink assignment index (DAI) field configured in a UL downlink control information (DCI) format; receiving a PDSCH transmission through the second serving cell; generating an HARQ response signal based on the number of PDSCHs scheduled in the downlink subframes indicated by the UL DAI field and the number of total downlink subframes associated with one uplink subframe; and transmitting the HARQ response signal through a PUSCH in the one uplink subframe.

  • Publication number: 20180019796
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relates to an apparatus and method for performing periodic CSI reporting available in a system supporting a TDD-FDD aggregation operation and an FDD-TDD aggregation operation. A periodicity and an offset for periodic reporting of channel quality indicator and precoding matrix inidcator may be determined based on the cell type of a primary serving cell for a TDD-FDD carrier aggregation and an FDD-TDD carrier aggregation.
