    Abstract: A terminal apparatus includes a control information detection unit configured to detect first and second DCI, and a transmitter configured to perform UL data transmission based on the first DCI or cancel a resource allocated in the second DCI. A UL grant using the first DCI is detected, when performing UL data transmission based on the UL grant, after the data transmission, a first timer for a corresponding HARQ process is started and a second timer is stopped, and when the first timer expires, the second timer for a HARQ process is started. When cancellation of the UL data transmission using the second DCI is detected, at a timing for the data transmission canceled, the second timer is restarted in a case that the first timer expires and the second timer is running, and the second timer is started in a case that the second timer is not running.

  • Publication number: 20200383089
    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.
