  • Publication number: 20210368534
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes a control unit that performs an uplink (UL) data transmission setting according to a radio resource control (RRC) message and a transmitting unit that transmits UL data according to the UL data transmission setting. The RRC message includes setting information of a plurality of configured UL grants (CGs). The setting information includes at least first and second CGs for each of at least one bandwidth part (BWP). The setting information further includes setting information related to transmission intervals for the first and second CGs. The control unit sets at least the first and second CGs for each BWP according to the setting information.

  • Publication number: 20210315002
    Abstract: In a case that a plurality of configured grants are configured, a base station apparatus can detect a signal efficiently. A plurality of transmission opportunities are produced by configuring values of a plurality of time offsets for the configured grant scheduling. Transmission with repeated slots is applied to each transmission opportunity, and a redundancy version is also configured for each repetition. In a case that a plurality of transmission patterns are generated through the plurality of time offsets, control is performed such that the redundancy versions are identical in a certain slot.

  • Publication number: 20210307017
    Abstract: According to the present invention, transmission is efficiently and repeatedly performed within a slot. The number of repetitions in the slot is calculated using OFDM symbol allocation in a slot notified using a predetermined field during RRC signaling or DCI formatting and the number of divisions in the slot notified by the RRC signaling (or the number of OFDM symbols serving as repetition unit). When the calculated number of repetitions does not satisfy a predetermined condition, repeated transmission is not performed.

  • Patent number: 11115960
    Abstract: A terminal apparatus includes a transmitter configured to transmit PUSCH data and a receiver configured to receive RRC information. The transmitter transmits the PUSCH data by using a resource associated with an HARQ process ID determined by symbol information for transmission of the PUSCH data, a period, and the number of HARQ processes. In a case that the receiver receives no response to the transmission of the PUSCH data with the HARQ process ID after the transmission of the PUSCH data is performed and before a timer included in the RRC information expires, the transmitter transmits new PUSCH data by using the resource associated with the HARQ process ID determined by the symbol information for the transmission of the PUSCH data, the period, and the number of HARQ processes.

  • Patent number: 11026184
    Abstract: To improve throughput in a communication environment in which a large number of terminal apparatuses access, a receiver receives information indicating whether a radio resource allocated by a base station apparatus is a grant free access resource or a scheduled access resource, as well as transmission power control information in the scheduled access resource and transmission power control information in the grant free access resource; and a transmitter configured to transmit a transmission signal to the base station apparatus. In a case of communicating by using the scheduled access resource, a transmission power control is performed based on the first transmission power control information to transmit the transmission signal. In a case of communicating by using the grant-free access resource, the transmission power control is performed based on the second transmission power control information to transmit the transmission signal.

  • Patent number: 11012111
    Abstract: In a case that a large number of terminal apparatuses that are accommodated by contention-based radio communication technologies share a frequency resource, the number of data signals of the terminal apparatus that are non-orthogonally multiplexed in the spatial domain increases. If terminal apparatuses, of which the number exceeds the number of receive antennas or the spreading factor transmit uplink data at the same time, it is tantamount to a presence of terminal apparatuses using the same spreading code, and inter-user interference becomes a problem.
