  • Patent number: 11923982
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a base station can dynamically change a repetition transmission method as appropriate. In a base station (100), a repetition control unit (103) determines a data repetition pattern for a terminal (200). A transmission unit (109) repeatedly transmits data (repetition transmission) on the basis of the repetition pattern. The data repetition pattern corresponds to control information to be reported to the terminal (200) by dynamic signaling.

  • Publication number: 20240048267
    Abstract: Provided is a terminal which can suitably apply precoding to a PDCCH. In the terminal (100), when a first CC is notified of scheduling information for each of a first component carrier (CC) and a second CC, a restriction determination unit (105) determines, on the basis of a subcarrier interval of the CC to be scheduled by means of the scheduling information among the first CC and the second CC, the maximum number of blind decodings when the scheduling information is blind-decoded. An extraction unit (102) performs the blind decoding on the basis of the maximum number of blind decodings and extracts the scheduling information.
